If you are interested in a pup, please fill out the puppy questionnaire. If you are having problems with the online form you can copy and paste the questions from the puppy questionnaire and email it to me.

It's important to note that when you are looking at the dogs and/or puppies on my website for sale, I am describing them as accurately as possible. You will not find a sales pitch that advertises every dog I have as "the best in the world", because I don't believe any one dog is the "best in the world". Best is subjective, depending on who is looking at the dog. It is more important to me to correctly match the right dog/pup with the right owner and situation/job. When your dog arrives I want you to be happy with the dog you recieved, not wonder where the dog I described on my site is.

Keeping in mind that everyones vision of perfection is different, my idea of a "perfect" dog for me, may not be your idea of a "perfect" dog. Therefore it's important I get as much information as possible about the type of dog you would like, so I can send you the right dog for you.

The following litters are being planned for this year.  These are not "written in stone", if I feel a better match has come along, then I may switch males, but these are the current plans. I only breed a few times a year, so reservations are strongly recommended.

	Dantero Plans for 2013
	FF Litter du Dantero Blida des Contes d'Hoffmann AKA Lilly was bred to Luigi du Dantero - SchIII, IPOIII, 2012 FMBB World Championships 3rd place, HIT Tracking in March 2013, litter born May 20th 2013, 4M and 4F. Pups are all sold. This is a repeat of the AA litter du Dantero which produced high drive, confident, stable, medium/large sized dogs with full/forward grips and excellent jumping abilities. For photos and videos of the AA pups, follow the link above.
	I am considering doing a breeding with Nexxus - HTDIIs, HSAs, HRDIs, RLFI, PT, HCT-s, CL1-F, CL1-H, CL1-S, CL1-R, TFE, FDCh-S, CHIC in summer of 2013 to Luigi du Dantero - SchIII, IPOIII, 2012 FMBB 3rd Place. Timing of the breeding will depend in part on Nexxus trial schedule. If she cycles with Kita she may go to Belgium for breeding instead. Nexxus has extreme drives in all areas, very fast, with full grips. Social with people and other dogs, she's biddable and "sporty" but also has a civil streak and can work as a PPD. With a competition record like his, Luigi should need no introduction. A medium sized male with high drives, full/forward grips, a socially neutral personality he has produced pups training in French Ring, Mondio Ring, Schutzhund, SAR, police dogs and performance dogs. For those watching for a Link breeding it has been put on hold due to the cost of the trip to Belgium (AI's aren't cheap) Keep an eye on this page, Link will be used at some point in the future Pups will be suited for working (police, FR, MR, Sch, etc) or performance (obedience, agility, etc). Taking inquiries now, deposits will be taken after the breeding has been done.
	Pakita du Dantero (Kita) - FRI will be bred in late 2013 to Ivam (Sam) - BR3 Her last heat was March 2013, she'll be due again around Sept. "Sam" is a medium sized very solidly built dog with high drives, strong character, social, fast, with full/pushing NVBK style grips. "Kita" is a large female with high drives, exceptional jumper, and full/hard grips. She is extremely stable, socially, environmentally, with other dogs, you name it she takes it all in stride. This will be a line breeding on Tom Muizenbos (Brits), Veomar Groentenhof (Stan), Toby II and Elgos. Pups will be suited for working (police, FR, MR, Sch, etc) or performance (obedience, agility, etc). Taking inquiries now, deposits will be taken after the breeding has been done.

Photos and videos of the dogs being bred and many of their relatives are available throughout the website using links at Video's and by following links on the pedigrees.

Registration

All litters are AKC registered. Females will ONLY be sold on limited registration, this can be changed to full after health tests/titles are done, contact me for more information. All puppies are pre-registered with an approved name (litter letter, anything the owner wants, then du Dantero) and then the new owners are sent the final papers with a change of ownership. To expediate this, it is requested that all puppy people have a name picked out as quickly as possible, since the entire litters paperwork will be done at one time.

Cost

The price for pups will be from $1000-$1300 depending on if it's a natural breeding, outside stud dog, or surgical AI, plus any shipping related expenses (crate, health certificate, shipping costs). Deposits are accepted ($250/non-refundable) after a breeding has been done. Working homes are given preference. On occasion a female may be available on a co-own. Pups must be picked up or shipped by 8 weeks unless special arrangements have been made. For more information email me at malndobe@juno.com or call 760-723-3291.

The puppies will be extensively socialized and handled by both children and adults. As they grow various objects (metal, wood, plastic, etc boxes, tunnels, baby agility equipments, toys that make noise, etc) are introduced into the whelping pen, and later into the puppy yard for them to crawl under/over/through, carry around, play tug with etc. The puppies are all raised inside, with plenty of outside play time weather permitting. Each puppy will recieve daily one-on-one sessions to play tug, learn to wear a leash, start basic obedience positions using food lures, etc. A deposit will reserve a pup. Pups will be sold with a written contract/guarantee.
