Welcome to Lakeside Ranch!
About Us!
Lakeside Ranch is a breed-focused kennel founded in December 2022 that is home to the best and rarest breeds on the sight! We strive to produce dogs that perform reliably and impressively, hoping to one day spread our name far and wide. To us, our dogs are our legacy, with each pup having a fighting chance to become the next champion if given the proper training and care.
We primarily focus on our Breeding Projects and will likely not expand to any more breeds. When it comes to training, we breed each line for a specific sport so we can produce pups that perform well. See below to find out what stats we specifically breed for.
When breeding, we normally wait until age 88 and 100 unless we are breeding diversifier/progenitor puppies. Generally, we will put up any dams or studs that we no longer have a need for. Studs are normally the only ones we put up, as we replace them if they produce a son that has better stats than them.

Please note that we now only do PRIVATE SALES due to dog flippers buying our dogs just to resell them. If your bid is not answered within 24 hours, please send us a message! We likely just forgot to check it! However, please be aware that if you buy one of our dogs just to resell them, you will not be able to purchase a dog from us again. If you believe you have been wrongfully barred from purchasing, please reach out! We do our best to be understanding! (This also includes rescues if the dog is bought during a clear out/sale, unless your price is also 0$ for 'adoption')
We also watch our dogs very closely and if one goes up for sale, we are very likely to buy them back! Please do note that if you repeatedly reserve/buy our pups just to resell them, we will be hesitant to sell to you in the future.
We grade certain litters of puppies based on a Letter Scale (at this point, only our Jack Russell Terriers) that takes all of our goals into consideration. Having any Fair in confirmation will fail the puppy, and we keep males and females based on the minimum letter grade. This will change as our lines improve. Some exceptions may be made to keep certain traits in our lines, but for the most part, the letter grades will determine if we keep a pup.
The letter grading system works as follows: (Note, until aptitude can be tested, the pup will have two ratings. This refelcts their potential rating if they do and don't have aptitude)
H count; The number of H genes
48 : 1
36-47 : 0.75
24-35 : 0.50
12-23 : 0.25
0-11 : 0
E count; The number of Excellent ratings
4 : 1
3 : 0.75
2 : 0.50
1 : 0.25
0 : 0
L gene; What the L gene is
lala : 1
Lla, LL : 0.75
Ll, lla : 0.5
Else : 0
int count; The number of intelligence state boosts
4 : 1
3 : 0.75
2 : 0.50
1 : 0.25
0 : 0
Aptitude; Whether the pup has the Earthdog Trials aptitude
True : 1
False : 0
Final Rating
5 : A
4-4.99 : B
3-3.99 : C
2-2.99 : D
0-1.99 : F
Out of Kennel Breeding!
We do not have our Studs idly up unless they're retired out of their line. If you wish to breed with one of our primary Studs, please send a message with the dam(s) you wish to breed him to. We do not have dams up for public breeding as we use them as late as possible.
