Our view on breeding
Choosing to bring an American Staffordshire Terrier into your home is a significant decision. However, as with any purebred dog, it is important to carefully consider the breeder from whom you acquire your puppy.
At our kennel, we take breeding seriously and are dedicated to the well-being of our dogs. We are not just focused on producing puppies, but also on providing ongoing support and care for both our dogs and their new owners. We are committed to ensuring that each puppy is placed in a loving, responsible home.
We are not just breeders, we are here for them with all our heart, energy and time.

What is our view on breeding? Where does our work begin and when does it end?
At our kennel, we prioritize the care and well-being of our dogs. To ensure the health and happiness of our puppies, we have established a comprehensive care program that includes regular veterinary check-ups, proper nutrition, and socialization.
Our breeding philosophy is rooted in a commitment to responsible, ethical practices. We carefully select breeding pairs based on health, temperament, and conformation to breed dogs that are not only beautiful, but also healthy and well-adjusted.
We are dedicated to providing the highest level of care for both our breeding females and their puppies. We understand the importance of proper nutrition in promoting optimal health and development, and we take great care to ensure that both mother and puppies are receiving the best possible nutrition.
In terms of breeding, we carefully plan our litters to be born in the spring or summer months, so that the puppies have the opportunity to spend ample time outdoors, gaining valuable experiences and socialization in a safe, fenced meadow. We also provide a variety of toys and obstacles to mentally stimulate the puppies, and by encouraging contact with grass, we begin to teach them good hygiene habits which will be beneficial for their future owners.
We believe that forming a strong bond and connection with our puppies is essential to their overall well-being. This is why we take great care in selecting the right homes for our puppies. Each year, we thoroughly screen potential owners and make sure to have detailed conversations with them, to get to know them personally. We also encourage them to visit us and see firsthand how we care for our dogs in our kennel. We believe that having personal contact is the best way to determine if someone is suitable to be an amstaff owner. We are committed to finding the perfect match between puppy and owner and ensuring that our puppies will be loved and well-cared for throughout their lives.
Our kennel places a strong emphasis on open communication and transparency, and we believe that visits to our kennel are an important step in this process. During these visits, potential owners have the opportunity to learn more about the care and upbringing of our puppies, as well as our expectations for the future of the dog. They can also ask any questions they may have about their plans for the dog, whether it be for pet or for shows and breeding. We welcome the opportunity to provide all the information they need to make an informed decision, and we are happy to answer any questions and help prepare for the arrival of a new member to their family.
We also take care of all necessary veterinary examination, vaccinations, and microchipping, as well as a visit from a breeding officer. We prepare a package for each puppy and its new owner, which includes dry food, a toy, a personalized blanket with the puppy’s name, and other gifts and goodies. We strive to make this experience as seamless and enjoyable as possible for both the puppy and its new owner.

As breeders, we understand the importance of a proper transition period for our puppies as they prepare to leave for their new homes. We schedule departures for our puppies to begin at 9 weeks of age, and we ensure that the process is gradual rather than simultaneous, in order to minimize stress on both the puppies and the mother.
Saying goodbye to our puppies is always a bittersweet experience for us, as we have grown attached to them during their time in our care. However, we take comfort in the fact that they are going to loving homes and that they will bring joy and companionship to their new families.
Upon taking possession of a puppy, each owner will receive a contract, a passport, and a pedigree from the Kennel Club of Slovenia. If we have time, we also deliver pedigree in person, to ensure that the transition is as smooth as possible.

As breeders, our responsibility does not end when a puppy leaves our kennel. Once someone becomes part of our Double Trouble family, we consider it to be a friendship that lasts a lifetime. We are always available to provide guidance and support to our puppy owners, and we look forward to staying in touch with them through regular check-ins and visits. We also encourage them to share pictures of their puppies with us, as we take great pride in seeing how they grow and develop.
For us, breeding is a way of life, and our focus is always on the health, well-being, and happiness of our puppies. We put a great deal of emphasis on providing the best care possible during their time with us, and we are dedicated to ensuring that they are placed in loving, responsible homes.

If you are considering bringing an American Staffordshire Terrier into your home, whether as a pet or for breeding purposes, we would be more than happy to speak with you. Please feel free to give us a call or send us an email with any questions you may have about upcoming litters.
At our kennel, we start preparing a list of potential owners well in advance of our litters, and we often already have confirmed reservations. If you are serious about acquiring one of our puppies, we recommend sending us an email with a short description of why you want an American Staffordshire Terrier, your preference for a male or female, and your experience with dogs. We will add you to our list of potential owners and keep you informed of any news or updates.
If you are very serious, we can also arrange a personal meeting, where we can get to know each other in more detail, discuss any questions or concerns you may have, and make sure that we are the right breeder for you.
