I'm the breeder behind Backwoods Kennels located in Beech Grove, AR. All of our puppies are imprinted from day one. We dedicate ourselves to producing some of the best quality pups possible. We treasure each puppy in our program, giving them all the attention and care that we possibly can. We work hard so our puppies can leave our home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!
What makes Hannah’s program special
I like to take the time to match the perfect puppy to the perfect home. I put the best interest of the dog or puppy first. I don't want to see someone bite off more than they can chew, just to see the puppy returned or rehomed.

I utilize the following enrichment methods: Various sounds, Socialized with other animals, Introduced to people of different ages and appearances, Socialized with other dogs, Daily handling, Socialized in new places, Socialized with children, Surface & tactile stimulation, and Car rides.
All puppies are vaccinated and dewormed before heading off to their new homes.

Why Hannah started breeding
I grew up in a family that bred dogs long before I was even born. My family raised various breeds such as labs, coon dogs, and beagles... Though none of those sparked my interest. I was around age 10 when I fell in love with German Shepherds and from there my interest only grew! Now I raise German Shepherds and Corgis, previously raised Belgian Malinois as well but recently stopped.
