I'm the breeder behind Windrider Kennel located in Potter Valley , CA. Our dogs are loved members of our family. They are trained in a variety of venues including conformation, obedience, rally, nosework, and more. They come from a long line of dogs with sound minds and bodies.
Q. & A. with Nancy
Why did you start breeding?
I started my breeding program to breed Malinois with a sound mind and body. I owned a high-quality male and acquired a wonderful female both of which had exceptional temperaments. I aimed then, and still do, to perpetuate the qualities of both of these dogs.
What makes your program special?
I believe that by doing my part and carefully breeding, socializing the litter, and screening potential puppy owners we can continue to have puppies that grow up to be outstanding adults.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
