I have been an avid animal lover all my life as far back as I can remember I have always owned dogs.  In the early 80’s I saw my first Belgian in the show ring being exhibited and it was love at first sight.  I was drawn to the breed for its intelligence and beauty.  My first Belgians were from Loup Noir kennels.  I have owned, imported, exported (to other countries) and bred Belgians ever since.

In the 90’s Cadre Noir Belgians was established.  Cadre Noir Belgians is a salute to the famous French Calvary School in Saumur located in the South of France that is now devoted to the finest equitation horse men.

I have had the great pleasure to have exhibited Belgians in Europe, Canada, and North America.   I am very proud of my consistent breeding program that produces exquisite breed type and are recognized to be among the finest Belgian Shepherd Dogs in the world.  I strive to produce the most healthy, intelligent and beautiful Belgians and have always insisted upon correct structure and facility of movement.  In my years of breeding I have been fortunate enough to acquire the very best Belgians from the best kennels in Europe for my breeding program. 

Health concerns in our breed is a priority when breeding.  All dogs at Cadre Noir over the age of two years have had their OFA hips certification and yearly CERF for hereditary eye disorders.  Before any puppy leaves for their forever home they have their first vaccines, are micro-chipped, and have had their first visit to our veterinarian. 

As a proud breeder, I will preserve the correct temperament, breed type, and structure of the Belgian Shepherd. 

I hope that you enjoy the website and remember that our kennel door is always open!
