I'm the breeder behind Illyria Dox & GSD located in Livingston, KY. I breed according to the FCI requirements. My Germans are bred for workability, functionality, Pedigree, and looks. My Dachshunds are bred by conformation, pedigree and prayers. Every puppy is beautiful even if it’s not show quality.
About Billie
I moved a lot as a kid and was never allowed a pet until now. They gave me a reason to get up and moving.
What makes Billie’s program special
The love we put in. They whelp and stay in my house until it’s impossible and then they go to to an AC/heated kennel with a porch. An exceptional living space.

We start off with crate training as they are in my home. And will have also been exposed to loud noises such as fireworks, leaf blower, mower, vacuum and although I do not have small children they will have exposure to them. And my dogs of all sizes as well as family dogs on the same cul-de-sac, but aside from the trip to the vet I limit contact with other dogs and visitors due to parvo.
