Who We Are

McDottie Dalmatians is a small breeding kennel that is run by Jennifer and has been operating since 1990.  Recently, Jennifer McLaughlin has been recognized by AKC as a Breeder of Merit!

Her 3 sons have shown since they were 3 yrs old.  They have grown and become adults, but their experiences helped all of the family develop in many ways.   They have taught us good sportsmanship and presentation skills.   They taught us patience and perseverance.   Jennifer continues to show and encourage other children and families to enjoy their dogs in the show rings.  One of her sons works for a kennel that trains police dogs while attending college.  He also trains hunting dogs.  

Jennifer has now become a Pet Consultant for Shure Pet products.   Feel free to contact her for details about Shure Pet Products such as grooming, treats, clothing, bedding, gifts, and more.   Catalogs are available by request.    

 Mostly, Jennifer raises dalmatians for the love of the breed.  She loves to watch them run and play.  She enjoys showing them in the conformation ring.  She helps families to find the right puppy for their homes.
