Brooke’s experience

  • About Brooke

    I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 sons. We are a very outgoing and active family. We spend our free time training and socializing our dogs or litters if we have any at the time. Our dogs are such an important part of our lives, and we can’t imagine being without them!

  • What makes Brooke’s program special

    I strive for excellence. I speak with people and keep in contact with pictures and updates the entire time the pups are here with us. I help each family finds the perfect fit for their lifestyle. We work hard so our puppies can leave our home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!

Getting a puppy from Brooke

Brooke has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies. You'll also have the chance to share a bit about yourself and what you're looking for in a new companion.

Puppy prices range from $1,000 - $1,600 and include a non-refundable deposit of $300.

“The price includes all paperwork, proof of shots, proof of dewormings, and a health guarantee. We require a $300 non-refundable deposit to hold your pup for you. The deposit goes toward the total price of the pup. Puppy "picks" are made at 7 weeks, in order of deposits. The rest is due at pick up.”

Brooke may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase.

More about Brooke

  • Why Brooke started breeding

    My uncle bred Shepherds for 25 years and I spent 5 years helping him and learning the ropes. As he got older, he started becoming short with people and started to lose the love he had for the breed. I decided that I wanted to take it on all by myself. I LOVE people and the ability to walk them through one of the most fun and exciting times of their life. I love the dogs as well and enjoy seeing them find their forever!
