Swede Mountain Shepherds
Our dogs are being selected for family friendly temperaments, willingness to please, health, level toplines, intelligence, guard intincts and beautiful coats.
The American line in our dogs contributes to a more docile, lower energy dog, while the working line (mostly DDR) contributes healther conformation, and desire for a job. Some of the American in their lines are bred for an "old fashioned" type body with level toplines.
Our dogs love going for walks, hikes, attending bike rides and swimming. What they desire most is to be with their people during all activities and down time.
Higher drives and energy levels do run in the working line. We are able to pair our DDR, East German male, "Jethro", with our females to produce dogs with more drive to work. The progeny having potential as service dogs and search and rescue.
Our youngest, and largest male, "Otis", is mostly American line (including Royalair). He is low energy, and his focus is on his people. He should produce puppies with potential as therapy and emotional support, as well as service and search and rescue.
All pups are raised with the family, and handled daily by myself, and our 3 children. When old enough to venture outdoors, the puppies are consistantly exposed to new suroundings, cats, chickens, pigs, and a pony.

Our pups are handled from day one. They are happy, healthy, well cared for and socialized from the very beginning.
All puppies are checked by a licensed veterinarian, given their first vaccination, kept on a deworming schedule, and are well socialized.
