Meet the breeder
I'm Lynn K., the breeder behind Cu Liath Deerhounds & Whippets located in Argyle, NY. Our hounds excel in various performance venues and - most importantly - in their forever homes as beloved family members. We love our dogs and what we do, and we strive to make each puppy a great contribution to his or her home.
Q. & A. with Lynn
Why did you start breeding?
We were mentored and encouraged by longtime breeders, who helped us to evaluate our dogs and to select appropriate stud dogs for them. We regularly participate in lure coursing and conformation shows and started breeding to continue and improve upon our prized lines. We are passionate about these dogs and have built that love and respect for the breeds into every aspect of our program.What makes your program special?
Cu Liath is committed to breeding dogs who match the written standard and also excel in temperament & health. At least one parent of each litter we breed has also competed successfully in lure coursing; many of our puppies also compete in that venue. We are proud of their accomplishments but also love to hear about their day-to-day adventures.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Lynn
Lynn has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
Lynn partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 8 weeks old.
“Matching the right puppy with the right owner avoids “I love Scruffy, but I’ll never own another dog if that breed.” I would rather hear “I can’t imagine not having a dog of that breed.””
Price
“Price includes health guarantee, veterinary health certificate, microchip, 1+ rounds of shots (age-dependent), de-worming, puppy socialization, lifetime support. Call us any time with questions/news! A deposit is due when I have a litter on the ground and commit to placing a puppy with you. The deposit would be refunded only if I were unable to provide a puppy from the litter.”
Contract & health guarantee
Lynn may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Lynn offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Lynn directly.
