We raise healthy, playful, mischievous and happy PWD puppies on a diet of exercise, fun and love, all in the country sunshine. With our mix of European and American bloodlines we strive to reproduce the quality of temperament that the breed originally possessed. Our puppies are raised free & happy, as healthy puppies should be, in a loving environment on 450 acres. The pack is contained in a 35-acre invisible fence system, with creeks and ponds to play in all day long, everyday. They are members of our family and very well behaved dogs (most of the time), with a “slight” touch of mischief in their loving eyes. We don't subject our guys to “Dog Shows” so you won’t find our kennel amongst the usual references. They are all show quality, but we just love and enjoy them. We don't do the beauty contests, contracts, co-own puppies, or keep ‘em in crates*. Instead we provide plenty of physical and mental challenges, combined with lots of love and belly rubs every day. Some days these little black devils will all work together to create more fun and diversion than imaginable. They are extremely intelligent and willing to please because of the way they live and grow up on the farm with all our other big dogs and doggie visitors who teach them important new stuff every day. Ex: It is important to remember where you buried your bone. More important; never let anyone see you bury your bone. You will soon find out why.
