Our ancestors walked with dogs at their side—not behind them. That is how we walk still.
At Corn Moon Medicine Dogs, breeding is not just a practice—it’s a calling to protect and preserve the sacred.
Rooted in Southeastern Native values and guided by generations of ancestral wisdom, our breeding program is a living expression of cultural preservation, spiritual purpose, and deep respect for the animals entrusted to our care. Every dog in our program carries more than just genetics—they carry legacy, medicine, and meaning.
We don’t breed to meet demand. We breed to fulfill purpose. Every pairing is intentional. Every puppy is nurtured from birth with holistic care, deep presence, and connection to the land. And every placement is guided not by profit, but by the calling each dog has in the world.
This is not just a breeding program. This is a restoration. A prayer. A promise.
More than a program—this is a restoration of purpose, lineage, and sacred bond.
In a world where breeding often becomes business, we remain rooted in something older. Deeper. Truer. Our program is guided by tradition, by integrity, and by an unwavering commitment to raising dogs that are more than companions—they are healers, protectors, and teachers.

How We Raise Future Generations
Our Breeding Philosophy
At Corn Moon Medicine Dogs, we don’t just breed dogs—we steward a sacred lineage. Every pairing, every pup, and every placement is guided by three core principles: health, spirit, and relationship.
This is not a high-volume operation. Our breeding program is slow, thoughtful, and rooted in respect—for the dogs, the people they serve, and the sacred roles they fulfill. These are not pets. They are medicine dogs.
While health and structure matter greatly, temperament is our first priority. We believe a dog must be a suitable companion before it can be anything else. Our breeding selections emphasize emotional intelligence, intuitive bonding, and a spiritual readiness to walk beside a human through life’s journey. Each pup is evaluated for its potential as a healing partner—whether that be in a home, a school, a therapy setting, or the wild rhythm of homestead life.
We are actively working to preserve and restore the true Native American Indian Dog (NAID) by tracing ancestry, verifying content, and responsibly reintroducing genetic diversity through carefully managed outcrossing. Every dog in our program is:
COI and DNA-tested through Embark
NAID content verified through Know Your Pet DNA
We publish these designations openly so you can make informed decisions—and so that the breed can move forward with clarity and integrity.
Our breeding dogs undergo a full health screening process that includes:
While many breeders rely only on lineage, we believe in verifying health across generations—because longevity, mobility, and well-being are part of the medicine.
Our puppies are raised in a spiritually conscious, clean, and grounded environment. They are:
We believe in raising puppies who are not only physically ready—but emotionally prepared—to enter the world with confidence and connection.
Our program is grounded in time-honored, biologically aligned care that supports lifelong vitality. We emphasize:
We honor the natural design of the dog—supporting their body, mind, and spirit from the inside out.
These dogs have given us everything—time, love, wisdom, and generations of legacy. They are the matriarchs and patriarchs who helped shape our standard, guide our mission, and bless dozens of families with medicine dogs who are changing lives around the world.
Though they may no longer be actively breeding, they are never gone. Their presence lives on in their offspring, their stories, and in the hearts of everyone they’ve touched.
We honor them here—not only for what they’ve produced, but for who they are.

A few of our breeding dogs live in carefully chosen guardian homes where they thrive as full-time family members while still participating in our program. We believe dogs deserve deep connection and lifelong placement—not cycles of rehoming. Guardianship allows us to expand our vision while honoring the heart of each dog.
We do not place puppies on a first-come, first-served basis. We place them where they are called. Through observation, temperament testing, and spiritual discernment, we match each pup to the home where it can offer—and receive—the most healing. This process may involve wait times, but we trust it always results in the right partnership.
We are honored to share just a few glimpses of the legacy these dogs are leaving behind.
To protect and preserve with utmost spirit and integrity the authentic, original Native American Indian Dog.
