Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Wounded Bear Presa Canario located in Defiance, MO. We take good pride in breeding dogs who are first and foremost well-tempered companion animals who happen to do well in the show/trial ring. We love that most of our puppy families are following big dreams and have worked hard towards achieving many titles with our dogs.

Q. & A. with Teal

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I did not start my journey with Presa Canarios with the intention to breed. I wanted a stable family dog that was versatile in sport and later show. As time went on I saw a need for more health tested, temperamentally stable, proven dogs in this breed and saw a void I could help fill. There was a great need for more breeders with a vision and desire to preserve the Presa Canario
  • What makes your program special?

    Our puppies are reared with Puppy Culture and we are enrolled in Avidog’s platinum breeder program for CE. Puppies are raised in our home with our family. They develop many skills and are exposed to many things and experiences prior to leaving our home. I have an extensive background in dog behavior and training that helps set a great foundation for our puppies to compliment their genetics.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.
