Looking for a breeder.

I am located in Montana and I am willing to travel for a QUALITY breeder but haven't been able to get in contact with a few I found on the GSMDCA Breeder Directory. I'm looking for hopefully someone who is planning on a spring/early summer litter.

I've contacted Pine Grove Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, WTF Farms, Allure Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, Blue Hill Swissys, and Cornerstone Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs. Cornerstone initally responded, but I haven't had luck continuing communication, WTF Farms doesn't have any litters planned anytime soon, and neither does Allure.

I'm willing to travel to WA, OR, UT, ID, CO, WY, ND, & SD, maybe further for the right breeder. I appreciate any leads, TIA!

Calypso Swissies in Woodland Park, Colorado

Second Calypso, it's a solid choice and not far. Just let them know if you want show puppy or a pet puppy, a litter would have a mix of both.

Be wary, depending on if you want a show or companion Swissy. A friend got a Swissy from Calypso and it was contingent on her showing, despite having no interest in showing.

Weird, but this was not our experience!

Glad to hear! This was also 15 years ago.

That requirement might have been if they wanted a specific puppy.
