Right Fit, Right Future

Welcome to Our Puppy Page

Thank you for considering one of Emerald Mtn Ranch’s puppies. We believe that finding the perfect match between our puppies and their future owners is paramount to ensuring a lifetime of happiness and fulfillment for both parties.
Our puppy application serves as a valuable tool in this process, allowing us to gain insight into your desires, expectations, and lifestyle. By understanding your preferences and goals, we can work together to select a puppy whose personality and temperament align closely with your vision. We firmly believe that there is a home uniquely suited to every pup, and our application helps us identify and facilitate those matches.
As these puppies are destined to grow into large, powerful homestead livestock guardian dogs, it’s essential for us to ensure that they find homes where they can thrive and fulfill their potential. Remember, LGDs are independent thinkers, and owners need to be flexible. We take great pride and strive to raise puppies who are not only physically able to do their job but also possess the intelligence, temperament, and instincts necessary for their role as guardians for the livestock or homestead.
Our commitment to the well-being of our puppies extends far beyond their time with us. We are dedicated to supporting our new owners every step of the way, offering guidance, advice, and assistance whenever needed. Additionally, we want to assure you that should circumstances change, we are always willing to welcome our dogs back into our care, ensuring their safety and happiness for life.
We look forward to getting to know you better through our application process and helping you find your match.
Warm regards,

Now Available – Turkish Boz Shepherd Puppies

From Our Legacy Dam Princess of MINIK
(EMR’S PRINCESS URFALI VON BOZKENNEL)
This special litter represents the final legacy of Princess, a direct import from Turkey and daughter of the respected MINIK bloodline. She is a large, quiet, and intensely devoted guardian with exceptional instincts. At 160 lbs, Princess is both powerful and gentle — trusted with all manner of livestock, including birds, and unwavering in her commitment to the animals she protects.

The sire, TALAT OF SUNSET GUARDIANS is a strong and stable male with a calm, grounded temperament. He is stock- and bird-safe, with the steady confidence we value in working dogs. Both parents have been Embark health-tested and are clear.
