Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Lambkin Lane Farm located in Rushville, OH. Lambkin Lane Farm is home to Scottish `Blackface Sheep and we're also huge advocates for the proper use of Livestock Guardian Dogs. Our sheep are protected 24/7 by our Anatolian Shepherds and Orso, our Maremma. Our kennel's name is Montizard. Our primary objective is to provide top-quality beloved companions. We are home-based breeders dedicated to bringing healthy, loving, and high-quality Anatolian Shepherd Dogs into the homes and hearts of their forever families. We love our dogs and are passionate about raising our puppies to be the best family companions.

    For as long as we've been breeding dogs we've had once guiding philosophy  - Breed the Best! That means breeding for temperament as well as conformation and with the Anatolians that also means striving to retain their incredible livestock guardian attributes.

What's included

Enrichment and socialization

Socialization of the puppies beginning at an early age is a primary part of our breeding program. We use assessment tools such as the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test (PAT) which tests for social attraction, social dominance, elevation dominance, retrieving, touch sensitivity, sound sensitivity, sight sensitivity, and stability. And pups are introduced to livestock as soon as possible. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Socialized with other animals, Socialized with other dogs, Introduced to people of different ages and appearances, Surface & tactile stimulation, Weekly Nail Trims , outside play, Table Trained, Human Interactions , Puppy Manners, Name recognition , and "No" Biting or Chewing.

 … 
Puppy health practices

All pups receive vaccinations and are vet checked before leaving for their new homes. Fecals are also done prior to leaving.

Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates.

More about Douglas

  • Why Douglas started breeding

    Our first dog breed was the Dandie Dinmont Terrier and for 40 years we bred litters producing dozens of AKC champions including BIS and Specialty winners. Anatolians came into our lives when we introduced livestock to our lives and continue to amaze us with their versatility. Show dogs, guardians and as therapy dogs, they are the best.
