Q. & A. with Jacquelyn
Why did you start breeding?
Purposeful and ethical breeding is so important for the healthy progression of these breeds. Basset Hounds and Bedlington Terriers are our passion, and we are devoted to doing whatever we can to preserve, protect, and improve these incredible dogs by producing puppies of superior health, pedigree, and structure. Our priority is quality over quantity, and our puppies are placed in loving forever homes that we have reviewed carefully.What makes your program special?
Our program is special because we are the only Bedlington breeder in the country that has had multiple successes with our dogs in AKC conformation competitions. We have finished more than 50 champions, and we bred the top-producing dog in both 2010 and 2012. We are also the only breeders authorized to incorporate the Willow Wind name, bred by David Ramsey, into the name of our dogs. We have also finished more than 60 champions with our early Basset Hound dogs. If you are looking for the perfect, quality companions in temperament, show quality, soundness, and manners, look no further!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
