ABOUT US

Frog Pond Bordeauxs is a small family farm in
Amherst, NH.  We are involved with horse rescue
as well.  We are not a kennel, but a hobby
breeder that strives to produce some of the most
beautiful and even tempered dogues.  
Temperament is by far one of the most
important attributes in a dogue combined with
proper structure.  We only produce one or two
litters a year, but each of our girls is only bred
once a year.  We believe in quality, not quantity.  
We strongly feel that our dogues are our
babies....an extension of our family.   Our dogues
remain with us until the day they cross the
rainbow bridge.  This is the reason why we only
have a few dogues.  They are well socialized and
are among other dogs, cats, horses, and farm
birds.  Our puppies go home at no earlier than 8
weeks of age after first shots and all wormings.   
Our Bordeauxs are not kept in a kennel.  They are
raised in our home and have the run of the
house so they are played with by young children.
All in home obedience training involves our
children so the dogues not only listen to the
adults in the home, but the children as well.  We
feel it makes a better dogue as well as a well
mannered dogue.  The puppies we keep are well
socialized dogues and they attend K-9 classes as
well as doggie daycare until they are 9 months
when daycare won't allow an unaltered dog.  We
then continue socialization skills at puppy parks,
the beach, training classes, and pet stores.  Our
dogues do not leave the premises (except for vet
visits) until they are fully vaccinated against K-9
disease.  
I will have Dogues for as long as I am able to
spend my time on Earth.  I could never picture
my life without my pets.  It's a passion that burns
deep within my heart.  Every time I sell a puppy
to his/her new owner, it breaks off a piece of my
heart, until I get the phone call, email or snail
mail of family pictures from my pup's new home.
 Then the smiles on the faces of the people make
everything worth while, and puts the happy back
into my heart.

OUR STORY
We were formally Sugar Grove Farms but have since cut down
almost all of our maple trees to make pastures for our horses,
so calling it Sugar Grove doesn't seem to make sense
anymore.  We do, however, have a frog pond and we figured a
play on words "French Mastiff"...french also nicknamed
"frogs", our last name (LaCombe) is french, plus the ever
croaking frog pond on the property...it just made sense.  So If
you were looking for Sugar Grove, look no further, you found
us.

























Frog Ponds Kiss of an Angel
5 months old and dressed in my daughter's clothes.  She is
out of Katie Lynn and Tanakajd Szepe's Morris.  In this picture,
Angel is going thru an awkward growth stage... something
you will see throughout their first year and possibly their
second.  She is a very beautiful dogue and I am proud to have
had the opportunity more than once to breed to such a nice,
well mannered male, Tanakajd Szepe Morris, pictured below.  
When I arrived at Margaret Lamper's home, I was absolutely
amazed to see 2 full size intact males living so peacefully with
one another, especially when I brought my female, Katie, in
heat, ready to breed.  There was no fighting, no bickering.  His
excellent temperament was one of the main reasons I chose
him.  Margaret has 7 adult Bordeauxs living peacefully with
each other in her home.  Most are spayed/neutered, with a
few exceptions.   















The pictures below are Moose, Angel's full brother.  He is
about 11 weeks in the first pic and 6 months old in the 2nd
picture.  He is owned by Douglas Bordeauxs in Cheshire, MA.  
He is out of Tanakajd Szepe Morris and Sugar Grove Farms
Kiss Me Kate.
