Pat Blank

Pat Blank breeds dogs in central Iowa near Des Moines. With more than fifteen years as a small-scale hobbyist and membership in the American Kennel Club’s breeder program, Blank is committed to clearances for hips, elbows and heart. Puppies grow up in a home environment with early enrichment routines, daily handling sessions and supervised outdoor play on open pastures.

Blank cares for each litter according to a philosophy that balances structure and freedom, aiming to build confidence through gentle guidance. The ranch includes a network of fenced paddocks and quiet resting areas where young dogs develop social skills alongside other farm animals. Each puppy leaves the ranch with documented vaccination records and a basic vet exam from a local clinic. Prospective owners note the puppies’ steady temperaments, curiosity and ease in adapting to new surroundings, and many have found a reliable companion for family life or weekend trail activities.
