I'm the breeder behind Loyal Companion Kennels located in Wauseon, OH. We have been breeding since 2013 and the health and care of our pets has always been very important to us. They protect and also have great temperments. They are friendly with children, are AKC registered, and always up to date on all their shots and wormings.
Q. & A. with Rachel
Why did you start breeding?
In 2013, my dad suffered some major strokes and was unable to work any longer. He decided he wanted to try to get into breeding. He's always loved German Shepherds, so naturally that is what he chose to start with. I have helped him since the beginning, and eventually buying the farm a few years later. Together we try our best to give any dog that leaves her the best opportunities possible.
What makes your program special?
Emphasis on health and temperments, positive and loving environments and lots of play time. I have been lucky to find a type of food for them that is not only nutritional, but also leaves their coats smooth and shiny.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
