Our Story

Hello and Welcome to our page

We are located just North of Atlanta, Georgia in a small town near the mountains…We are small hobby breeders of the Beautiful Biewer terriers. Our goal is to produce high quality biewer terriers and improve the breed with each and every litter. We were careful at choosing our champion bloodline in order to produce exquisite Biewers. Our dogs are calm and beautiful with very friendly personalities. We believe pets are members of the family and not just an animal. We love and nurture our fur babies just like we do other members of the family. We chose the biewer terrier breed because the minute we saw one it was love at first sight.

Our story begins shortly after losing our gentle giant, Diesel, a beautiful gigantic English Mastiff from bone cancer. He was huge, yet gentle and loving…the biggest teddy bear on earth. He protected our home and loved us hard!!

We then decided to go for a lap dog next time, not just because they live a much longer life but because it could go with us just about anywhere…

We bought a little Maltese named Daisy Mae… She was the sweetest, most beautiful baby! When we picked her up she was so teeny tiny white, she looked like an oversized cotton ball… We fell madly in love with this baby and she ruled our home… 😉 She even protected us when the doorbell rang 😉 [all 5lbs of her] haha!!

We purchased a camper one spring to have more time outdoors and travel with our family. She loved the campgrounds and the fun of hanging with all of us outdoors… But she was so fearful of other dogs that it was hard to take her on walks at the campgrounds… We quickly realized we had hogged her all to ourselves and didn’t socialize her enough… We have learned from our mistakes and worked hard to not do that ever again.

One day we decided to send her off to a professional trainer to help her with her fear of other dogs. She went to a summer camp [per se] to learn socialization skills, etc. One day, we get the most horrible call, that our sweet Daisy Mae had passed because she choked on her food…we were beyond devastated… Our daughter was so upset it made her sick to her stomach.

Months later we decided to get her another puppy… We knew we couldn’t get another Maltese, because none could replace our Daisy. We went online and searched and searched for another tiny breed that was hypoallergenic and calm like our Daisy… One Day we came across this unique Breed… The Biewer Terrier…. We instantly stopped the search and knew this was the one… We studied up the history of the breed and searched  for a puppy. We found our First Biewer and named her Zoe! The sweetest puppy ever…Though no dog could ever replace our Diesel nor our Daisy, Zoe sure came close…then a year later we decided it was time for another and we bought our handsome boy Teddy…

It didn’t take long until we just decided we wanted to have more and more…and most of all we wanted to improve the breed and make it even better and better… So we decided to become breeders of Biewer Terriers as we move into retirement…It is so fulfilling and heartwarming to wake up everyday to get hugs and kisses from all our fur babies.

We want our puppies to come from dogs that are loved as part of our family! We love all our dogs so much we want them to grow up feeling super loved and have a great and long furry life!!

Our puppies are loved and cared for not just by their fur mommies but also by all of us in our family… They live as members of our family and even have their very own bedroom. They are spoiled, well socialized, microchipped, vet checked, health tested, and vaccinated.

Our puppies come from champion bloodlines and will be sold as pets to only vetted families that will love them as deeply as we love ours.

About the breed

The Biewer, pronounced (Beeva), originated in Hunsruck, Germany in 1984.  Mr. and Mrs. Werner & Gertrude Biewer started the first Biewer through a recessive piebald gene occurance in their Yorkshire Terriers. Although Mr. Werner Biewer passed away in 1997, his legacy lives on through this exquisite rare breed.  

Biewer started with the master parents “Darling von Friedheck” and “Fru Fru von Friedheck”.  Both dogs were blue and tan and were world youth winners in 1981 at Dortmund. Their marriage brought the first blue, white and golden Biewer, “Schneeflocken von Friedheck”, born in January of 1984.  

Mr. Biewer continued breeding his colored Biewers to achieve their white bellies and four white legs. In 1989 the Biewer was accepted as it own breed with the ACH German e.V.  As we know them today, the Biewer  has enchanted us with their elegant coloring and disposition.  The head must have three colors; black or blue, white and gold in good symmetry. The belly, chest, legs and the tip of the tail is white. The tail is full. The back is blue or black with white in it. The hair is silky, not curly.  The original Biewer Standard that was developed in Germany can be viewed below but the standard adopted by the AKC can be viewed here.
