ABOUT US
Our motto - Go Natural
El Dorado Kennel at Green Days Farm is located in the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada in the charming Northern California town of Placerville. Here in the historical Gold Country we found our own treasure in home grown foods and blending happily with Mother Nature. We believe in sustainable lifestyle, living off grid and leaving a small footprint on this planet Earth.
We cultivate fruits and vegetables, raise chickens and bees, breed adorable mini milking goats, and we use German shepherds as guard dogs. Our majestic stock coat and long coat, red and black, solid black German shepherds our biggest hobby and our biggest pride.
When we first purchased this beautiful land in Placerville, we knew we needed livestock guardian dogs, and our hearts were set on German Shepherds. We have never looked back! Thanks to our loyal guardians, not a single goat or chicken has fallen prey to predators.
On our farm we keep a fairly small and manageable amount of animals. We want to be able to give every creature as much love and care as we can, using natural practices, herbs and natural supplements in the holistic care of our dogs and goats.
Being a dog breeder and a judge for dog shows in the past, I just can't help it, I must have the purest, the finest, the best animals to keep, either a goat or dog. Once you are a breeder, you are a breeder for life!
After extensive research and poring over hundreds of pedigrees, we welcomed some truly remarkable animals to our farm. We started with our first Shepherd from one of California’s top breeders and, inspired by our love for the breed, soon expanded our family with more dogs from some of the best breeders worldwide. All our German Shepherds boast pedigrees from the very finest bloodlines, with at least three World Champions in their ancestry. Our silly goats have no clue that they are under the watchful eye of such *royal* guardians.
Our Shepherds and their puppies are as healthy and happy as can be. Beyond their exceptional pedigrees, they live a fantastic life here, and who wouldn't enjoy growing up on a hobby farm? Sounds like a blast! All green, all natural, all healthy and full of freedom.
Oh, Joy! We farm because we love to and we breed because we love to!
