Please bear with me while I build this new website.

My site of 30+ years was suddenly shut down without notice (http://pinewoodacres02.tripod.com} and I have lost so much content.

It will take time to try to rebuild what I had.

​

 

Welcome to Pinewood Acres.  I am a 36+ year Show/Preservation Breeder of quality AKC Shetland Sheepdogs and Chihuahuas.  I am located in central Maine.  I am an AKC Bronze Breeder of Merit,  an AKC Bred With H.E.A.R.T. member and a member of the Chihuahua Club Of America.  I started out in Obedience with Shetland Sheepdogs but then I got hooked on Showing in Conformation Events, which is still my primary interest today.  Due to my health/family issues, I do not have any Sheltie litters planned at this time but if you are interested in a quality Sheltie puppy, feel free to email me and I can direct you to other reputable Breeders in the area. I Show/Breed Long Coat and Smooth Coat Chihuahuas in a variety of colors, including brindles & merles.  All of our breeding age dogs are OFA and Embark Health Tested.  My goal is to improve the Breed and never do it any harm.

​

As soon as she could walk, my daughter Paige started following me to shows and immediately took an interest in showing the dogs.  Words can not express how proud I am of her and her accomplishments.  She not only showed/pointed several of our dogs, and other peoples dogs, but she also finished her own Collies and made the Top 20 Junior Handlers for 2004.  

​

I breed primarily for myself, with the hopes of breeding my next Champion in the Conformation ring.  I only breed from stable/sane/happy, AKC GCH, Champion, Champion Sired, or from heavy Champion background Sires and Dams, who are health tested/have no known health issues themselves, or behind them.  Of course, not all puppies are Show puppies, so occasionally I offer quality puppies to loving companion homes only.  Quite often many of the puppies that I offer for sale as Pets are Show Quality as there is a limit to how many males I can keep and my girls have to be big enough to safely breed as well.  All of my Pet puppies come with a Health Guarantee and a lifetime of Breeder support.
