Tall Timber Ranch
We (Cliff, Judi, Amber and Cody Otto) are located in Elkton, Oregon which is about forty miles from the ocean, nestled in the Coastal mountain range and about a fourteen mile drive from I-5.
All of our dogs are farm raised. They are first introduced to our cat's who happen to fear nothing. The puppies soon learn a healthy respect of cat's which we've found follows them through life. Soon they meet the chickens and under the guidence of an older gentle dog they learn to leave the chickens alone. We have several horses who have no problems with dogs. Our puppies learn the sounds and smells of the horses and they also learn to stay out of the horse pastures, for safety's sake. But most importantly they learn not to chase the stock. Our puppies are brought in the house and learn their manner's, don't jump, don't bite and please, please don't chew on the shoes!
Our dogs are raised to be gentle respectful animals, sure they are working animals that love to retreive, but they are also dogs that love children and are happy, healthy family pets.
We belong to the Umpqua Valley Retreiver Club and enjoy participating. We raise one to two litter's per year that are welped in our home and handled daily until sale time.
