I'm Cindy M., the breeder behind Happy Hounds Kennel located in Mastic, Ny/Seaford, De. Happy Hounds is a small, family run kennel that breeds only 1 or 2 litters a year. We breed AKC registered tri-colored 15" Beagle puppies.
Q. & A. with Cindy
Why did you start breeding?
We fell in love with the Beagle breed and wanted to produce quality and loved Beagle puppies for other families. Our original kennel consisted of our dogs Chloe, Sassy, and Honey. While these three are now retired, they are still a large part of our family.
What makes your program special?
We are concerned with the Beagle as a breed; our goal is to maintain the AKC standard. We will never breed an animal that has not been tested. We started our kennel with certified, healthy championship dogs and will maintain this quality in the future. This is done for the integrity of the breed and for our customers, to ensure that your puppy will give you many years of happiness and love.
Holly is our 4 yr old tri-color female who will be mated within the next week/10 days. She would have her puppies mid to end October. All interested parties can contact me here or at HappyHoundsKennel.com. Continue to check here for any updates.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
