About Us

I am a Patrol Officer with the Sioux Falls Police Department.  I have been raising German Shepherds for 14 years, and specifically training them in Search & Rescue for 10 years.  I was Co-Commander/Training Director of Minnehaha County K9 Search and Rescue, but recently retired that position so I can broaden my horizons.  I'd like to start training in Schutzhund and agility. 

Before relocating to S.D. for less heat and more wide-open spaces, I was the Training Officer for the Maricopa County (Phoenix, AZ)
K-9 Search and Rescue team.

In addition to breeding and training my own GSD's, I also foster dogs for the local shelter.  I firmly believe in breeding quality dogs, but I also believe in helping every dog find a quality home.  Whenever time and space are available, I take in anything from a temperamental/shy dog to an abused animal to an entire litter.  With training and good experiences, rescue dogs can find good homes for a lifetime. 

I spend a great deal of time each day with each dog ensuring they get daily love and stimulation. Each dog is trained daily; whether it be obedience, search and rescue, or agility.  The facility is equipped with very large outdoor/indoor dog runs.  Each area is compiled of lush grassy landscape with connecting access to a barn through a doggie door.

My dogs are also fed premium dog food: Taste of the Wild and Natural Balance, both grain free foods.   
  
I am also a member of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America.
