Meet the breeder
I'm Melanie G., the breeder behind Water Oak Farm located in Comer, GA. Our pups come from fully vetted parents. Our babies are raised in our home, never in a kennel. We have lots of activities for our pups to do during the day including a ball pit, playground, interactive toys, tug toys, learning toys and hands-on training daily. We love playing with our babies!!
Q. & A. with Melanie
Why did you start breeding?
We have been breeding Bernese Mountain dogs for 25 years and they participate on the farm with daily chores. Our Schnauzers are our shadows here on the farm and they LOVE it! They love to chase squirrels, birds and chipmunks.What makes your program special?
We do our best to breed sound, genetically tested dogs with excellent temperaments that meet the breed standard. Our program goes above the standard testing recommended by AKC to include Patellar. We feel it is important that our dogs patellas our sound because they do a lot of playing, running, jumping and digging for fun here on the farm.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Miniature Schnauzer puppies include salt and pepper, black and silver, and black. Bernese Mountain Dog puppies are black rust and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
