Family Rottweiler kennel
The kennel stands on the Maritsa riverside at the edge of Plovdiv, Bulgaria. Our dogs live with families across Bulgaria and the rest of Europe.
From other yards
Pages kept by other yards and kennels, each read before it was shelved here.
- theethicalbreeder.com
We keep a close eye on how serious kennels present their work, and the ethical breeder's public checklist reads a lot like our own contracts: written terms, health results shown before any money moves. the way another kennel writes its commitments down

When we explain to a family what a working Rottweiler is actually measured against, the standards published there are the reference points we come back to: nerve, grip, recovery, control.

Before our dogs' results go into the kennel book, we check how eye certifications are recorded elsewhere, because a certificate is only as good as the registry that keeps it.
