Baby Charlotte, baby Anya
and baby Odin "Buying
a puppy is a lifetime commitment, .........as is breeding one."
n While
the "perfect dog" is what every reputable breeder strives for , sadly
the perfect dog is a myth. In the bloodhound world there are
many bloodhounds that are very close to perfection
, and on the flip side others that are infact purebred but do not
resemble the bloodhound breed! You may not be looking for the next
superstar showdog, but it should matter to you that your dog has a good
structure, breed type , good temperament, and good health. Reputable
breeders strive for producing puppies that are sound in all these
departments. In my own opinion if you buy from a backyard breeder that
has never shown their hounds and has little knowledge or experience
with the breed , you are NOT getting quality.
Remember "Quality is never an accident; it is always the
result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and
skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many
alternatives." Although the puppy advertised on some puppy website may
be cheaper, in the end you could be paying the ultimate price getting a
puppy that is not healthy mentally or physically.
There
are few things in this world that are more adorable than a
bloodhound puppy. Which may also be why at times purchasing a
bloodhound puppy has not been an informed or
careful
decision by some. There are more things to consider before
bringing a bloodhound into your life than with most
other
breeds. Bloodhounds are not the easiest dogs to live with and they
require a tremendous amount of patience and dedication.
Bloodhounds do
best with a repetitive routine, and structure in their everyday life. A
bloodhound requires all the same things a human baby does. What I mean
is they require ; proper housing, proper nutrition, health
care, , patience, stability, education( obedience), rules/
boundaries, time, safety, a lot of money and most of all a lot of love.
Are you prepared? The old saying "it takes a
village to
raise a child" applies to dogs as well. They need to be exposed to all
different sizes of dogs , people and situations. The last
thing
you want is a 100+ unsocialized ill mannered dog. Obedience classes are
a must for a first time bloodhound owner.
You must first decide
is the bloodhound right for you? The breed is not right for many,
in fact I believe few people are meant for bloodhounds . Look around
you, how many bloodhounds are in your neighbourhood? How many are in
your city? How many are in your Province/State? There is a
reason! Then you must decide, do you want to purchase a puppy
or would you like to adopt a bloodhound from Rescue, both have their positive and negative
points, please carefully consider both. Do not be surprised if you are
on a 1-3 year waiting list, remember "good things are worth waiting
for" there
should be no rush in obtaining a family member. Then you will
have to decide on pet or show . Anya is first and
foremost
a pet , she does not live life on the road going from show to show, but
rather lives a regular pet life with the occasional weekend trip.
Showing your dog does not necessarily mean you should breed him or her
but it is a very fun and rewarding sport. Showing is not a
sport
meant for only professional handlers , there has been many
owner/handlers (novices) that have put championships on their dogs.
Showing is a great way to meet people especially other "bloodhound
people" it is a great way to socialize for yourself and your dog.
If you have children junior handling can also be a very fun
and
rewarding sport for your child. Please do not dismiss the idea until
you have researched it and talked to a breeder about it. Most
of
all make sure the decision you make is a sound one
considering
this dog will be under you care for it's entire life, consider the
stability of your life in all aspects.If you are willing do all that is
takes to properly raise a bloodhound,a bloodhound can be a dream come
true for many. Owning a bloodhound can be an amazing and memorable
experience but if you are not prepared to give it you all, you could
truely be sorry. BUYER

This
litter will Truely be "a Dream come True" for Us. Fingers and toes
crossed for 2009. This Breeding will be contigent upon health
clearances aquired in 2009.
The litter theme is "Tom Waits songs" If you look at the puppy pedigree
there are some amazing bloodhounds in that family tree! Some
of the Best in my Opinion.
Chami
is a wonderful dog that has excelled not only in the show ring but in
Trailing . Chami is a wonderful example of the breed; being a
typey male of sound body and mind, with a wonderful temperament and
personality to boot! Chami is owned and loved by Colin & Ruth
Avery
Millvery Bloodhounds (England) who have been involved with bloodhounds
since the late 1960's
. Chami is a senior
trailing hound and won Open Class and RCC at Crufts 2008.
What
Can we say about Anya? Well Anya is growing up to be such a lovely
bitch. She has good structure, sound movement and a "to die for"
temperament/personality. Anya is very laid back and very very
intelligent. She gets along with everything and everyone. Anya quickly
finished her Canadian Championship with Four group placements against
some Top Hounds. She has the desired thin skin with a
beautiful sleek/soft coat, most cannot keep their hands off of
her.
We hope this breeding will produce outstanding multi-purpose puppies
with amazing temperaments. This will be a breeding from Frozen semen.
Black & Tan and Liver & Tan are anticipated. A breeding
like this requires immense careful planning and consideration. Before
breeding we must also have a list of intensely screened potential puppy
owners. Pet quality puppies will be on a mandatory Spay/Neuter
contract. Show puppies or show quality Trailing pups (full
registration) will go to very selected
homes with strict conditions to breeding rights. If you are
