Von Palmore Hof
Meet the breeder
I'm Igor P., the breeder behind Von Palmore Hof located in Maple Grove, MN. We put in countless hours researching pedigrees, finding the best studs and dams to ensure all of our dogs are perfect. Through hard work we're trying to become renowned for producing some of the best GSDs in the region. We want our clients to be amazed by the temperament and intelligence of my dogs.
Q. & A. with Igor
Why did you start breeding?
Eventually, I decided that I wanted to dedicate my life to GSDs. I started by volunteering at a local animal shelter and working with GSDs that needed training and rehabilitation. I would spend hours every day working with them, teaching them basic commands, and helping them overcome any behavioral issues they may have had. As I gained more experience and knowledge, I decided to start my own GSD kennel. I knew that breeding and training GSDs was a huge responsibility, but I was confident that with my passion and dedication, I could create a successful and ethical breeding program. I put in countless hours researching pedigrees, finding the best studs and dams, and ensuring that all of my dogs had the proper health clearances.What makes your program special?
Through hard work and perseverance, we are trying to become renowned for producing some of the best GSDs in the region. I want my clients to be amazed by the temperament and intelligence of my dogs, and hoping many of them will came back to get additional puppies. I’m blessed to have them around me and I learned that raising and working with GSDs isn't just a job, it's a way of life, and I wouldn't have it any other way.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies include long and stock coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
