About Us
I got my first German Shepherd Dog when I was 12 and instantly fell in love with the breed. I found him outside of my middle school, after no one claimed him, I named him Bubba. He was the best dog, a great first dog for a young girl. I didn’t get my first working line German Shepherd Dog until 2007, a few months after I started training my American Pit Bull Terrier in a sport called Schutzhund. I got “The Judge” from a great mentor and breeder Sue Marion who was in our Schutzhund club. I started training and traveling to seminars and learning as much as I absolutely could. After a few years, I became president of the Desert Dog Schutzhund club(DVG) and maintained that position for quite a while. It was an amazing club that really helped me learn a lot of fundamental things, the club was always super family friendly and helpful to anyone that showed up and had a question. I moved on to a new area and a new club that was a bit more competitive in training and I am forever grateful to them for the knowledge I gained while there, it was a great time and club. With the help of that club, I titled Rasta, a dog that was sired by my dog Judge to a BH at a mere 15 months old and had him ready for a 1 within months after that. I have continued on since then with other dogs and different clubs as I moved from northern Idaho to Southeastern Arizona. I am now married and have a child who is very into helping me train dogs and raise litters of puppies. I have always valued a dog that could be a good working dog and a good family dog, and my goal is to breed dogs that fit both those tasks. We fully health test all of our breeding dogs before they’re ever bred. We title our breeding stock as life allows us to, it is always our goal to eventually title all of our breeding dogs and we can always provide lots of videos from training and trials if they have competed.
