About Us

Western Skies Kennel & Ranch

Hello. My name is Shannon Pflueger. As long as I can remember I have had the incredible opportunity to be raised around animals. I grew up surrounded by mainly cattle, horses and dogs. My family specifically raised English Mastiffs and English Bulldogs for several years.

My love has always been for the big dogs, so it makes a lot of sense when it came time to building my own breeding program, that I would choose Bernese Mountain Dogs. I have found the bigger the dog, the more gentle and kind their demeanor. I will always have an appreciation for the purebreds but as I have found out over the years they tend to have health concerns that the Doodle crosses do not have. I believe in crossing genetically clear and structural sound dogs to get that hybrid vigor every breed desires. This creates an overall healthier dog. This is eventually how I choose to breed Bernedoodles. It is so important to me that I keep the integrity of each breed by pairing dogs that will compliment one anothers personalities.

For me it should not stop at at the breeding level, but raising quality dogs requires training and true socialization, most specifically as a puppy. This includes sight, sound and touch.The puppy’s traits and personality is most influenced within the first 16 weeks of it’s life. It is crucial to start training and socializing within this time frame to get the most well rounded adult dog possible. I am happy to say my program reflects this very goal. I am the reason for each puppy’s existence and take that responsibility very seriously. Our puppies are raised in and out of our home (after 4 weeks of age) on a daily basis, after all socialization and desensitizing is what my program reflects. I am proud of the amazing results I have gained and I am confident that you will too!
