Q. & A. with Cody
Why did you start breeding?
As an avid pheasant hunter, I have a deep appreciation for the breed’s natural hunting ability, athleticism, intelligence, and drive. Breeding became a way for us to combine our love of the outdoors, our appreciation for proven hunting ability, and our commitment to producing dogs with wonderful temperaments that could thrive both in the field and at home with their families.What makes your program special?
Our breeding program reflects our commitment to the breed and our desire to produce dogs that bring the same enjoyment to other families that our dogs have brought to ours. We appreciate the importance of thoughtful breeding decisions and strive to match the qualities of our dogs with the goals and lifestyles of the families who welcome our puppies.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are rust. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
