About Us
Breeding Philosophy
My goal is to produce healthy, stable, delightful family pets who can also succeed in dog sports at the hobbyist level. That means social dogs with great off-switches, who adore doing things with their people. That also means structurally-sound dogs who can remain active and fit into their teens.
I'm committed to removing barriers to entry in the dog sport world by placing wonderful dogs with wonderful people in communities that may otherwise not have access to health-tested and thoughtfully-raised puppies.
I prioritize temperament above all else, and strive to make good matches between owners and their puppies for a lifelong connection.
About Sara
I'm a professional trainer who really likes dogs and people.
I love watching the relationship grow between dog and handler as teams train in sports, and I love to see social, stable dogs who can go anywhere with their family.
I've been in the rescue world for over two decades, and am strongly committed to placing good dogs with good people. I have a special interest in encouraging junior handlers!
Puzzle Dogs Origin
Honestly, in Minnesota we have a shortage of suitable pet dogs for the average family. While we handle this by shipping dogs into our state to help out overburdened shelters and rescues in the southern states, I also wanted to contribute to the pet dog population by providing health-tested, social, thoughtfully-raised puppies to our community.
