Litters                          

An all-black litter was born overnight April 19...4 girls and 3 boys.  This litter is healthy and vigorous.  Click here for pictures (updated weekly) as they grow up.

Caper is a lovely import bitch with a lot of energy, gorgeous effortless movement and she earned both her CH and JH easily.  Her first litter is lovely, with 2 pointed children at one year of age.  Flyer is out of Madison, our national specialty winner and Dutch, one of our favorite dogs.  Flyer finished easily out of the Bred By Exhibitor class, and is next in line to be specialed.  He is also training for his JH.  Flyer has a lovely outline, a pleasing head, excellent bone and efficient movement.  He has a very pleasant temperament and is extremely easy to live with. 

All puppies will be vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and well socialized.  Please email for a copy of our contract and to be placed on a waiting list.

Nikki Runyan of FlatOut kennel has a few remaining pups.  Please email her for details.                            

We also have tentative plans to breed Swallowsflight Zodiac Zorra to CH Cloud Dancer's Kindred Spirit JH WCX this year.  We expect outstanding type, movement and working ability from this combination. 

All puppies are sold under contract, and companion quality puppies are sold only under limited registration.  All puppies are micro-chipped, vaccinated, wormed and have been temperament tested as well as  tested on birds and water (weather-permitting).  Our puppies are whelped and raised in the house and receive lots of interaction as they are growing up.  We reserve the right to choose your puppy for you, as we have been observing the litter for weeks and weeks and know their personalities intimately.
