“After my share of encounters with show breeders that left much to be desired, finding Bigfoot Leonberger Ranch on the Gulf of Mexico coast of Texas was a revelation. Valentina and John are the epitome of warmth and authenticity in a sea of otherwise daunting experiences. The moment I drove through their large gate, the sight of Leonbergers joyfully running across the fields, fresh from a playful dip in the 'Leo Lagoon,' was profoundly moving. It was a scene of pure bliss—these giants, muddy and ecstatic, embodying the freedom and care that Bigfoot stands for. Valentina and John's dedication to the breed is evident in every aspect of their ranch, designed to provide a quality life for these dogs. Their Leonbergers, with their calm energy and gentle demeanor, quickly showcase their well-tempered nature—sitting by your feet, following you from room to room, and leaning against your leg in the affectionate "Lean-on-berger" style. Choosing Bigfoot Leonberger Ranch has not just given me a magnificent Leonberger but also introduced me to a community where respect, care, and love for these gentle giants prevail. For anyone seeking a breeder who is genuinely friendly, down-to-earth, and committed to the wellbeing of their dogs, Bigfoot Ranch is the best breeder in the U.S.A. and I highly recommend them."
