Meet Bart Stevens
“The Dogman”

Bart’s dedication to German Shepherds highlights the profound bond between humans and animals, reflecting his lifelong passion for dogs.

After retiring from the family business, he embarked on a new chapter, which naturally led to the founding of Marsh Run Kennels Inc.

This decision created a sanctuary for German Shepherds and other breeds. Consequently, pet owners place their trust in Marsh Run Kennels, gaining peace of mind that their furry companions will receive exceptional care.

Bart’s story continues to inspire others, leaving a lasting mark on countless animals and their owners.
