Kathy possess a unique knowledge of the Kuvasz breed

intensive research. She has a particular interest in
Kuvasz health, and can be depended upon to provide her
puppy buyers with the latest news and research on
vaccinations and medical issues.
Kathy is the author of a planned book about Kuvaszok to be

Kuvasz breed,
in general, and are avid supporters of official health

Owners of Double Ring dogs, in
particular, can count on them to be available to
answer questions, and help out with any problems, whenever
possible.
The Ringerings have recently moved to a new country
property in Fredericktown, Missouri, with plenty of acreage
for their beloved Kuvaszok and their visiting children and
grandchildren.
They're currently
busy renovating the home and grounds. Pictures to be
posted here in the future!

Show records do not say it all!
Our dogs are competitive at large
entries. We believe that it is important to prove one's
breeding stock by earning titles prior to breeding.
We do not believe in making "kennel
champions," which means earning championships by
regularly competing against our own dogs. Where is the
fun and the sportsmanship in that?
Titles are important but be careful not to put too much
emphasis on show wins!
Some champions are campaigned every
weekend with lots of money spent on advertising to help
make them top winning dogs!
We also prefer to allow our show dogs
to be "regular" dogs. We really enjoy their company, and
occasionally, we allow them to re-enter the show ring.
