Q. & A. with Roxanne

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I've had hands on experience with dogs my entire life and knew growing up I'd end up working with animals. I worked at a vet office in California before relocating to Arizona. I have been involved with hunting breeds for over a decade. I absolutely love what I do, it has it's moments to of joy and heartbreak but there is no better feeling then placing one of our pups into a forever home and seeing the updates of love our dogs bring to our families!

  • What makes your program special?

    We take a hands on approach when breeding, health is our first goal here! Our dogs are fully genetically health tested to ensure the pups we produce are healthy and sound for a lifetime of fun with their families! Our puppies are socialized prior to coming home and started on potty training, I feel that all the time and effort put in those first eight weeks contribute long term to the success of each puppy!

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

    I cannot express enough how thoughtful and seamless the entire process from initial contact to bringing our boy home has been, working with Roxanne and Howlin Hounds. Amazing experience and an even more amazing Pup; healthy, happy and even tempered. 10 out of 10 for Howlin Hounds.

    Roxanne is AMAZING. We decided to add more paws to our family and it was the best decision ever. Her dogs are well bred, their health and safety is paramount (and tested), she makes sure you have every bit of support you could possibly need - and is available for questions about your new baby prior to meeting. I love the transparency and how organized puppy handoff was, including health records and microchip info (yes, the littles come with a microchip which I am absolutely here for! Keep those babies safe!), starter food and vitamins, snuggle toy and chew toys. The Good Dog payment transaction was SO simple and guaranteed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and could not be more grateful for where our Moose came from - will definitely go back to Howlin’ Hounds and Roxanne! ❤️

    Everything was amazing with Roxanne! This is my first time raising a puppy by myself and as you can imagine I had tons of questions, but Roxanne was willing to help me no matter what. To this day, I still ask her things and she always responds and gives me the best advice. She also checks in on my pup pretty frequently. I can truly tell this is her passion and she cares about the wellbeing of her puppies even if they are no longer in her own home. She has made this process perfect and I couldn’t have asked for a better breeder to have my first experience with. If you want a Basset Hound or a puppy in general, I would 100% recommend going with Roxanne! I promise it will be great!

    Roxanne was so responsive and so helpful with information and helped guide us through the process. I would recommend Roxanne to anyone wanting a Bassett. The website is easy to handle. And Roxanne said a few times she is here for us 24/7. I know that she means it. You can tell that she loves all the puppies!! Gold star rating
