DELTA
*Retired
Delta is a bold and confident boy, eager to please, and quickly picks up new training concepts. He has a strong bird drive and extraordinary marking abilities, paired with excellent focus during training, which has transferred over and suited him well at the line. Unfortunately, Delta will not be a part of our breeding program. He was unable to pass his OFA elbows. In his first scans, he was graded DJD1 on both elbows. Devastated by the news, we ran a second set to be sure. OFA cleared one side but not the other. Statistics show that even if both parents (both Delta's parents passed elbows), offspring have a 12% odds of not receiving a passing result. He is truly a fantastic dog! Although we are disappointed by the results, we know it's best for the breed to retire him. He will forever be in our family, stay active in training, and go on family hunts with us!

OAKLEY
*Retired
Oakley is a remarkable girl with a combination of kindness and playfulness. She has a stunning dark red-golden coat, a white chest, a solid build, and square features. Photos don't do her justice! Her fantastic attitude and stylish presence make her a standout. Oakley is an excellent house companion from a lineage of remarkable and accomplished hunting ancestors on both sides of her pedigree.
We received disappointing news regarding her health certificates. She did not pass her echo. Additionally, her parents passed on a double recessive gene, resulting in cataracts in both of her eyes. The vet mentioned that the cataracts were small and did not affect her vision at the moment. We've removed her from our breeding program to prevent passing on these genes to the next generation of our beloved breed.
After spaying Oakley, we made the tough decision to rehome her with our friends nearby. The upside is that we are the designated sitters when they leave town and can still see her whenever we want. It was a tough decision, but rehoming her was the best scenario for Oakley. She still has acres to run free on and the undivided attention of her family!​

QUINN
*Retired
Miss Quinn is a very active, social girl who is always up for a wrestling match! She has a sweet, spunky personality, and absolutely loves the water. Her build is petite but athletic. She is a half-sibling to Delta from the same sire. Quinn's mother brings an accomplished pedigree paired with steady temperaments from UK lines, lowering the COI for the breed. ​ *Unfortunately, Quinn did not receive passing eye results and has been spayed and is not eligible for our breeding program.
