About Holley
All my life I have loved dogs, and I have been deeply involved in all things dog my whole life. In college i was selected as an intern at the University of Pennsylvania's working dog center when I lived in Philadelphia, PA where I trained and cared for many working K9s. My passion for dogs has grown, I now run hunt test with my personal dog, and a SAR K9 handler, and professionally train dogs.

Why Holley started breeding
After studying and testing under multiple USAR evaluators, and due to the quality of my dogs, it was suggested that I get into breeding and training USAR K9s and dogs for other detection feilds as there is a shortage of good dogs and trainers in these areas. So I retired as a handler, and now train and breed performance and working dogs full time
