Maine Working Dogs

We got our Dutch Shepherd puppy from Maine Working Dogs and we could not be happier with our girl. We talked to Ari before getting her to make sure she would be the right fit for our family and she certainly is. Any time that I have had questions about anything at all in regards to our puppy or the breed in general, Ari has been quick to respond to texts and Facebook messages. When I had some concerns about our puppy’s behavior in public, Ari met us at a local store to work with her and us to reassure me that we were doing all the right things in regards to training and that her behavior was normal for her breed. I have never trusted anyone outside of family to watch my dogs for us and I absolutely would not hesitate to board our girl with Ari as I know that she would receive great care and great training while she was there.

Finding a good breeder is hard these days…. But we searched a bit and found maine working dogs a couple years ago and added Tango to our family! Arianna is one of the best so friendly and will answer any questions that you have! Unfortunately tango didn’t get the life he should have had and we only had him for a short time and now Arianna is wonderful as she is. Working with us to add another to our house in the spring! We are very happy with Maine working dogs and will always be our favorite breeder!

We feel incredibly lucky to have found this breeder. From the very beginning, she was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what she does. It’s so clear how much care, love, and intention goes into every part of their breeding program. Communication was wonderful, questions were always welcomed, and we felt supported every step of the way. You can truly tell they put their whole heart into raising healthy, happy puppies and making sure they go to the right homes. We are beyond grateful for the experience and for the amazing addition to our family. If you’re considering this breeder, know that you’re in the best hands—we couldn’t recommend them more highly and feel so fortunate to have worked with them.

My husband and I got our dog from Maine Working Dogs, and he is amazing. There is a lot of quality put into the dogs 🐕 and puppies 🐶 offered here. I always feel comfortable going back to this breeder for any and all questions. Ari is incredibly knowledgeable, she's been a great resource to have in our pocket over the years as our dog grows and matures. I would absolutely recommend Maine Working Dogs for someone who needs an ethically bred, healthy, highly trainable, loyal, and intelligent protection dog.
