Q. & A. with Johan

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My wife and I both grew up around puppies - me around shepherds and her around dachshunds. We have a family of six kids and wanted to get into breeding to teach our kids love and empathy for dogs and they are loving it. We especially love working with our shepherds and enjoy their intelligence, loyalty and amazing temperaments.
  • What makes your program special?

    We collaborate with responsible, ethical breeders in Europe and import most of our dogs from the top lines in Europe. We will keep exceptional pups from our litters to keep bettering the breed with future breedings. We are the stewards and custodians of bettering the breed. We have a network of contacts in Germany and other European countries and have access to awesome champion kennels out there.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have long coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.
