We will breed for health, conformation, temperament and intellect. Working ability is important to us too, regardless of what type of “work” our dogs do — herding, coursing and tracking that entail drive and endurance, or obedience, therapy and agility that require focused teamwork.

As dedicated hobby breeders, we will not put two dogs together simply to collect stud fees or sell puppies — we will breed because we have extensively researched lineage and judge that by adding our particular lines to another dog’s, an even better example of the breed standard will be produced. When it comes to breeding, we value integrity and candor in all our dealings.
