Future Breedings:
Our breeding goals (in order of most important to least important):
Producing AHE clear dogs who will be succesful in harness into their golden years, bred and whelped naturally
Producing dogs that are not human or dog aggressive, with a strong work ethic, good feet and coat, and ravenous appetite that can excel in harness
Producing dogs that do not get injured, or when they are injured they recover quickly
Producing dogs that excel in whatever race venue they pursue (distance, mid-distance, dryland, etc), or as sporting dogs/pets
In order to ensure that we are meeting our breeding goals, we require our puppy/dog buyers to remain in contact with us for the dog's life, so we have more data to evaluate on how our dogs turn out as they age, and what health problems may crop up in our lines.
Contact us if you'd be interested in buying one (or more) of these future pups. Parents pedigrees available upon request. Contact us for info on pricing.
Vinson X Crush - Crush may be small, but she's mighty, and she comes from one of the top sprint kennels in the state of Alaska. Vinson is a product of our first breeding, and has matured into an incredible dog. We're hoping this cross will add speed to Vinson's side of the line, while adding more bone and endurance to Crush's side. Potential breeding summer 2019.
Sarah Jane X ??? - As yet undediced which dog I'll be breeding my beloved lead dog too (I need to figure out which dog is most worthy of my girl!). Potential mates include Dubstep, Scout, or Flounder. Potential breeding summer 2019.

The following are our proven studs, and/or those who have passed all health testing and have not yet sired a litter. Contact us for pricing and information about our stud contracts if you'd like to use any of our dogs to sire a litter for the future of your kennel!
