Meet the breeder
I'm Ricky B., the breeder behind Bluegrass Blueticks (BGK) located in Caneville, KY. We are a breeder of high-quality Bluetick Coonhound Bloodlines. Out of love for the Bluetick Coonhound breed we are devoted to breed on the highest of breed standards. We always breed up, never less.
Q. & A. with Ricky
Why did you start breeding?
I noticed over the decades just how much irresponsible and ignorant breeding was taking place in the k9 world and worse maybe amongst the Coonhound community. So I set out with one primary goal, I would be a positive part of bettering the breed.What makes your program special?
We always breed up. We understand all dogs are not created equal and we don't just breed because they there built real good, we know the character and temperament of many generations or their pedigrees and consider traits and tendencies important, knowing this helps produce a better chance of overall well-rounded hounds.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
