The story of Black Dog Jewelers began in 2008, when the Kauffman family adopted a lovable black Shih Tzu–Cocker Spaniel mix named Winston from a local no-kill shelter, Turkey Run Rescue. Inspired by their new furry family member, Bob Kauffman, the family’s master metalsmith, designed a pendant featuring turkey and paw prints. The design was reproduced and sold to raise funds for the rescue — marking the start of something much bigger. After decades of working for other jewelers in the region, the Kauffmans united their talents to create a full-service jewelry store rooted in craftsmanship, compassion, and community.

To this day, supporting animal rescue efforts remains a core mission of Black Dog Jewelers, with ongoing promotions and partnerships that give back to local shelters. Here, fine jewelry meets heartfelt purpose — and every piece tells a story.
