I'm Wes R., the breeder behind Southern Cypress Kennel, LLC located in Tennessee. Our dogs are bred to produce healthy, sound, and versatile pups. They make excellent hunting companions and family pets. We decided to start a responsible, in-home breeding program in order to produce quality hunting dogs that also fit into a home setting. We focus on breeding dogs that have the drive to keep up with our lifestyle, but also have amazing temperaments and can quickly adapt to a calm family setting.
