Q. & A. with Laurie
Why did you start breeding?
Our dogs are bred with National club supervision. I am interested in helping maintain this rare European hunting breed.What makes your program special?
Our dogs must pass performance hunt tests, are assessed for good conformation and temperament, as well as health and genetic profiles before they are approved from breeding.Where do your breeding dogs live?
