WHAT'S NEW!
Our new website is now online! we are still filling in the missing pieces, and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us!

*Airfare prices through Northwest/Delta have increased due to their merger on or about November 7, 2009. Small puppy flight packages start at $290.00 now compared to $240.00 in the past. Of course larger puppies will cost more to ship. We are trying to keep our prices low due to the current economic climate, so please remember all prices are "negotiable" but we still must make enough to keep our business up and running!

WHY HYBRIDS?
Breeding hybrids consists of deliberately breeding a chosen Sire and Dam from two different purebred dogs, then breeding a specific crossbreed to others of the same cross. This sets a standard, the ancestry of the puppies are documented over generations thus creating a new "breed". These "breeds" are the new "designer" dogs being bred for families or single owners looking for pets that are easier to train, have good temperaments, and make excellent family additions.

LEARNED vs. BRED?
Of course select breeding gives the advantage of getting more of what you want in a dog, but the breeder also plays a part in handling that determines the behavior in your new pet. We handle our dogs on a daily basis and take pride in assuring they are well socialized and family ready before they go to their new homes. Puppies are placed in their "playpen" three times a day to learn play skills, potty training and get their share of "cuddles" with me to learn their "people skills"! Of course Donnee (my two year old) helps me with that too so they learn to associate with children also, who can sometimes play a little "rough".

OUR KENNEL
DRK Kennel is a small family owned dog breeding operation located in the black hills of South Dakota. Our goal is to provide healthy, quality puppies with outstanding temperaments that are well socialized and will make excellent family additions! We breed mostly hybrids (crossing two different purebreds), but also may have some mixed breeds from our hybrid crosses and some purebred litters to supplement our hybrid breeding program. We breed mostly medium sized family dogs and some toy and miniature breeds.

TESTIMONIALS:
We received our puppy in very good condition, with all her paperwork and Vet history. She is the sweetest little character! We are very happy with our decision to own a puppy from DRK Kennels!
