I'm Shawna S., the breeder behind Du Ciel Pharaoh Hounds located in Glendale, AZ. I hold myself to the highest standard when it comes to our dogs and our policies. I take responsible breeding very seriously. My mission as a breeder is to preserve the integrity of the Pharaoh Hound. For this reason, I only breed occasionally when I'm sure I'm producing a litter that meets breed standards.

Together, you’ll choose the puppy that’s right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

“Prices vary slightly by litter and puppy - a rebate for a portion of the purchase price will be refunded when all required health testing of the pup is completed at 2 years of age. Refundable only if there is not a puppy meeting the agreed upon qualifications (such as gender or temperament) or if the breeder decides the puppy owner is not a good fit for any pup in the litter.”
Shawna 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 Shawna 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 Shawna directly.
