It is my goal to aim for excellence in the selection, breeding and care of my dogs and my livestock.
First and foremost is breeding healthy dogs which produce healthy pups. My dogs are kept current on
their heartworm preventative, regular worming, yearly vaccinations, and their rabies vaccination every
three years. I feed Diamond Lamb and Rice to all of our dogs, some have it free choice and some are fed
daily. Each of my dogs has had their hips tested either with OFA or PennHIP. All of my dogs have
scored very well. See the Our Dogs link for the results of each of my dogs’ hip testing. My females weigh
approx. 100 lbs, and my male weighs 120. This is what you can expect your pup to weigh at about 2 years
of age.
Livestock guard dogs (LGD) and pet pups sell for $500, with limited registration. If LGD pups are not placed
before 12 weeks of age the price will increase due to training with either sheep or goats or both at my discretion.
Limited registration means that your pup can be registered with the AKC but any offspring of said pup cannot be
registered. I do this because not all pups are of breeding quality. It doesn't mean they won't make good guards or
pets, it just means I make the decision who breeds and who doesn't based on what I observe early on.
I feel this is my responsibility as a breeder.
Breeding quality pups are priced higher. If that is what you are looking for, contact me and let me find out
more about you and what you’re looking for in a breeding quality pup.
I stand by the health of my pups which is why I offer a 28-month health guarantee.
It states the pup you are purchasing is healthy and free from genetic defects.
This guarantee includes but is not limited to hip dysplasia.
All of my pups are born in the barn close to our sheep and goats. After a few weeks they are moved to a
pen opposite where our animals come in to feed. This is where the bonding process starts. As
they get older they go out into the barnyard with mom and the other dogs to learn all about what it means
to be a future LGD. It is at this point I can observe and decide if I think a pup could or should be placed as a pet.
As far as color, some of our pups are born with badger markings, some are not. Some have also been
known to have a body spot. Most but not all of these markings fade with age.
When you call or email to inquire about one of my pups, you should be prepared for me to ask you a lot of
questions. I need to feel confident about the placement and know that this is a good match.
If you are not willing to answer questions such as:
Have you ever owned a Pyr before?
What type of stock do you have?
What type of fencing do you have?
Do you have kids, other dogs, cats?
How do you feel about spaying and neutering your dog?
Please do us both a favor and choose another breeder.
If after that point you are serious about a pup, I may suggest you send a $100 deposit which will hold a
pup. If for some reason I can't give you what you want or if you change your mind, I will refund your deposit.
Over the years I have met many wonderful people and made some new friends.
I appreciate when owners send pictures and updates about their dogs either by email or phone.
It is also important for new owners to know I am available for any kind of support needed during the life of the pup.
