Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Shining D Ranch located in Barron County, WI. We offer well-socialized family pets. Starting from day one, puppies are welcomed into our family as if they will be our own. We focus on creating a dog you’re going to want for the rest of your life. We want you to come back in the future and recommend us to other people. Our puppies are loved and taken care of as if they are our family.

Brittany’s experience

  • About Brittany

    We are a small, family-run farm in the heart of the north woods of Wisconsin. We believe in honesty and hard work, and we strive to make each person and puppy's experience with us a truly positive one.

  • What makes Brittany’s program special

    We raise our dogs in our home. Our momma dogs and the studs we choose are all family pets. Our dogs get to roam our 20-acre farm twice a day when we do chores and enjoy their lives at the same time as being a parent.

Good level

Shining D Ranch reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for German Shorthaired Pointers.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Full Embark Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
