StoneFox
Meet the breeder
I'm Karen S., the breeder behind StoneFox located in Blossom, TX. Our dogs are carefully selected for breeding. They must pass multiple health testing before they are even considered to be bred. Puppies are raised in the house and given the best possible beginning to their lives. Dogs are registered with the American Kennel Club and the United Kennel Club.
Q. & A. with Karen
Why did you start breeding?
I became involved with breeding to ensure the preservation of correct dogs in form and function for the future.What makes your program special?
We do not breed dogs unless they have complimentary traits, working titles, and display good examples of the breed. I do not breed very frequently because my goal is to better the breed. Our standard is to strive for quality over quantity.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
