Meet the breeder

I'm Libby A., the breeder behind Red Clay Kennels located in Axton, VA. We breed for temperament and strive to preserve our bloodlines, while maintaining the breed standards. We have been breeding for 9 years and truly love the breed and we have an appreciation for their intelligence, loyalty, companionship, as well as their abilities in the field.

Q. & A. with Libby

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My husband grew up breeding alongside his father and grandpa, so he always wanted to continue that legacy. We both are dog lovers and GSP's just fit our lifestyle. While we love to hunt and be outdoors with our dogs and watch them excel in the field, we know that they make equally excellent companions at home. We have such a passion for the breed and upholding the breed standard.

  • What makes your program special?

    We love our dogs and we hope it shows through the care we provide for our pups. What makes Red Clay Kennels special is, the work that we put in to be the best and better our program each year. We are always striving to be better than the year before. Our dogs are family and we know each of them and their personality. We use that information to make sure you get the best fit for your family.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include liver roan, white and liver, liver and white, black roan, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

    I could not have been happier with Libby and Red Clay Kennels! I felt that my questions were answered and my concerns were addressed. I had a bad experience getting a GSP and didn’t want to get burned again. Now I have the cutest GSP on earth! Gunther has a loving home for life. He’s healthy, happy and super smart.

    I found Libby from Red Clay Kennels, Gooddog I had just lost my 7 year old pup from an enlarged heart. It was devastating as a puppy mom. Argos, was my first GSP and quickly fell madly in love with him. My husband was devastated as well. He knew how much I loved this breed and couldn’t deal without having another GSP in our lives. That’s when Libby came into our lives. I researched online when I found Gooddogs. I had reached out to several GSP breakers sharing my grief, in hopes someone had new pups. Libby got back with me asap. Libby had me call her and we spoke for a good amount of time. She was so compassionate and felt my pain. After choosing our new little pup, Libby worked with us about picking up our new puppy. Libby’s family have such a positive and love for her pups. Libby’s mom and dad pups are absolutely beautiful and healthy. Even after speaking and communicating with her I started to get feedback from other breeders. I didn’t even hesitate whether or not to follow through with our new pup from Red Clay Kennels. I politely responded to other breeders that I was so grateful, Libby’s pups was my first choice. Staying in touch with Libby has been so important to us. Libby is such a sweet, honest, kind person and GSP breeder. I can’t say enough about my positive experience with Libby and the decision to bringing our new pup, Zeus home. Libby, Red Clay Kennels has been a great experience for my husband and me.

    We brought home our German Shorthaired Pointer puppy, Luna, from Red Clay Kennels, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From our very first conversation, Libby was kind, communicative, and clearly dedicated to raising healthy, confident puppies. Luna came home happy, well-socialized, and curious — you can tell she was raised in a caring, enriching environment. Libby kept us updated throughout the process with photos and information about Luna’s development, which made us feel so connected even before we met her. We’re so grateful for the love and attention Libby puts into her dogs. Red Clay Kennels produces not only beautiful GSPs but puppies with truly wonderful temperaments. We can’t recommend her enough!
