About Us
We are a small, family program rooted in a deep passion for the dogs we raise. As professional trainers, our dogs are part of our daily lives, living in our home, training with us, and participating in a variety of activities. We intentionally keep our program small to ensure each dog and litter receives individualized care, thoughtful development, and ongoing support. Our dogs are our family members, companions, and working partners.
Our focus is on producing well-rounded Belgian Malinois with stable, social temperaments and strong working ability. We prioritize full, comprehensive health testing along with extensive early socialization and training protocols.
Our goal is to raise confident, capable dogs and place them in homes where they can thrive. We are selective in our process to ensure the right fit for both our puppies and their future families. We stand by all of our puppies for their entire lives, provide ongoing support to their families, and will always welcome a puppy back for any reason.
Our dogs undergo comprehensive health testing, including but not limited to OFA hips, elbows, and eyes, along with a full hereditary disease screening panel, to ensure the highest standards of genetic soundness, and all of our litters are raised in home following Puppy Culture methods.
Our dogs are, above all, beloved members of our family. They live alongside us in our home, where they enjoy a rich, fulfilling life full of care, love, and attention. As integral parts of our daily lives, they not only receive top-quality care but also thrive in a stimulating and balanced environment that keeps both their bodies and minds active.
Beyond being cherished pets, our dogs excel in various dog sports, showcasing their versatility and drive. They actively participate in protection sports, dock diving, disc, and scent detection, allowing them to channel their natural instincts and energy into constructive and rewarding outlets. This diverse involvement ensures that our dogs are not only physically fit but also mentally sharp, confident, and well-rounded, qualities they pass down to their puppies.
Our commitment to our dogs' well-being and their involvement in a variety of activities ensures that they lead enriching lives, making them outstanding companions and prime examples of the breed’s versatility.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer training?
Yes! Training is a big part of what we do. We are full-time professional dog trainers, so our relationship with our puppies and their families doesn't have to end when the puppy goes home.
We offer extended stays for our puppies to develop their skills and confidence, as well as training at later stages of their lives.
We offer board & train, private training sessions, and day training. We also offer virtual training sessions for families who aren't local.
Whether your puppy needs a little extra foundation work or your adult dog needs help with obedience, manners, behavior, or advanced skills, we're happy to continue working with you and your dog throughout their life.
Do you place puppies as service dog prospects?
No. We do not place our puppies as service dog prospects.
Our dogs are bred primarily for sport, which means they generally have higher drive and intensity than what is desirable in most service dogs. Depending on the lines, this can include higher prey drive, defense drive, hunt drive, or simply a higher overall energy level. These traits can be tremendous assets in the right working or sport home, but they are not necessarily desirable for service work.
Our puppies are bred for sport, detection, protection, search & rescue, and active companion homes, depending on the individual litter and puppy. They are not bred, evaluated, or sold as service dog prospects.
If your primary goal is obtaining a service dog, we are not the breeder you are looking for.
Do you offer breeding rights?
We do not sell puppies with breeding rights outright.
Co-ownership opportunities with eventual breeding rights may be available to the right home.
All puppies are initially placed without breeding rights. Breeding rights may be granted later to a responsible breeding program once the dog has reached the appropriate age, completed all required health testing, and demonstrated that they meet our standards.
We are absolutely open to working with people who are new to breeding, provided they are committed to learning, breeding responsibly, and building their program the right way. Experience is not a requirement; responsibility, ethics, and a willingness to do things correctly are.
Required health clearances include OFA hips, OFA elbows, OFA eyes, and genetic health testing appropriate for the breed. We also evaluate the dog's physical structure, temperament, working ability, and overall quality. We want to see the adult dog prove themselves, including earning a working certification or sport titles, before considering them for breeding.
