AKC REGISTERED ENGLISH SPRINGER SPANIELS
A LITTLE ABOUT US
Hi,
let me introduce ourselves. My name is Joe and my wife is Gail. She is
actually the ramrod of this operation, however, she hates this machine
so I am in charge of this particular job.
Both
of us have been involved in raising dogs since our youth. Gail and her
family was heavily involved in coon dog field trials, and was very
successful at it. In their circles, their blood line was, and still is,
very well known across the nation and considered one of the best. They
raised black and tans, blue ticks, treeing walkers, most of the hound
breeds. As their sport progressed and speed became all important they
started crossing with greyhounds and various other breeds of speed and
stamina.
Myself,
I am just an everyday run-of-the-mill hunter. My passion is quail
hunting, but as a boy growing up I did a little of everything. My father
liked fox hunting so we raised a few fox hounds. I got into a little
rabbit hunting and raised beagles. However, like I said, my passion is
bird hunting and so was my father's. The biggest problem was my father
liked pointers, I liked setters. The solution was simple, raise both.
Over
the years, here in northwest Arkansas anyway, our quail population
dwindled to nothing and I, more or less, gave up quail hunting and took
up pheasant hunting. In my opinion the hunting of the pheasant required a
different kind of dog than the ranging hunters I was used to, so I was
on the prowl for that perfect dog.
My
wife and I both like pets and with pheasant hunting lasting only a
couple of weeks out of the year, at least for me, my perfect dog needed
to be family oriented also. The English Springer Spaniel is the perfect
choice. His disposition is happy, carefree, playful, and very loving.
Great around children and a very good watch dog. Extremely smart and
easily trained. He lays around and plays around the house all year then
loads up and travels 700 miles to where we hunt. The next morning we
head to the field and he goes all day long, day in and day out, until we
get ready to come home. The ones I have fooled with in the field are
easy to handle and seem to be natural retrievers. I'm not much of a duck
hunter, but these spaniels love water and with their web feet I can't
help but think they would be just at home in the duck blind as in the
field.
We really love these dogs and pamper them something awful. Each and every puppy
is treated like something special and given the best of care. They
are wormed and given all their shots and anything else they need to make
them as happy and healthy as possible. Our puppies are passed to you
full of life and a 12 month guarantee to be free of genetic defects. We
back this guarantee with a refund of your purchase price or your pick of
the next available puppies. If there is nothing you like you can wait
for another litter, the choice is yours.
Our
pedigrees have backgrounds of field and show champions on both sides.
So if you're looking for a hunting buddy, a show star, or just a loving
companion, look us over, you'll be glad you did.
