Meet the breeder
I'm Shelby S., the breeder behind S & S Kennel located in Hardinsburg, IN. We breed well-rounded Belgian Malinois for scent detection work and for responsible companion homes. Our dogs are considered members of our family, and we give each dog and puppy all the attention and care that they require to live happy, healthy lives. We love what we do and are passionate about responsibly raising top-quality puppies.
Q. & A. with Shelby
Why did you start breeding?
Our sweet girl is a fantastic scent detection dog, and we decided to continue her line to produce healthy, quality puppies that have the potential to excel as working dogs and as loving companions.What makes your program special?
We are a small, in-home breeder. Our goal is to produce healthy, loving dogs, and we strive to prepare all our puppies to excel in their forever homes, whether they are part of a police department, help with search and rescue, or take the title of pet as their primary role.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Echo
Echo is my foundation female. She's the standard I model my program off of and what I'm trying to produce, she's my personal service dog and I strive to improve the breed for service work
Rivia, mom
Belgian Malinois
About Rivia
Rivia is a pocket rocket from Echo's first litter with Rawer. Rivia is very personable with her people but still wary enough for protection work.
