Marshfield Kennel is located in an old farm in beautiful Shapleigh, Maine.  We enjoy the best of Maine life and are still driving distance to New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Vermont.

Why do we have two breeds?  Amanda was already gaga for Pembroke Welsh Corgis and had shared her life with one since college when she met and married Todd who was equally committed to his breed of choice, the German Shorthaired Pointer.  Since that time Amanda has worked with both breeds and Todd has done agility and breed show work with Gale. 

Both Todd and Amanda are hunters.  Todd has hunted nearly his entire life.  He's passionate about German Shorthaired Pointers and has researched the breed back to it's beginning.  Amanda has been into sport horses her entire life.  She brings a unique perspective to performance-bred animals.

We use some of the most basic techniques of breeding to produce high-quality puppies.  Folks have known for thousands of years that if you breed best to best and like to like that you get better results in subsequent generations.  We utilize many of the traditional principals of dog and horse breeding in our program.  We also incorporate a thoroughly modern understanding of genetics to ensure we produce quality from generation to generation.

The most important thing for us is to produce the best hunting dog we can and place it with the hunting family who will most enjoy the kind of pup we produce.  This harmonious match is best for the dog and the people.
