"Should I breed my female?" Please see Frequently Asked Questions for things to consider.
In an effort to alleviate confusion or any misunderstandings, please see our policies stated below. However, please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
Puppies: We release/ship our puppies at 12 weeks of age. We believe that at this age we are better able to judge each pup's potential. We require a $100 non-refundable deposit which is applied toward the purchase of your Breton [French Brittany] pup. This deposit is deducted from the total purchase price when the transaction is completed. Deposits are accepted in chronological order and a receipt will be mailed to you. The depositor has the right to roll his reservation over to another breeding, within reason, and as agreed upon by the breeder. Deposits are non-refundable should you decide to cancel the purchase.

Naming conventions: We require our puppy buyers to follow our own naming convention whereby each litter is named with a designated letter of the alphabet. (i.e., 2005- all names start with either the letter "F" or "G"). We also require that our kennel name be included as part of the dog's registered name - e.g. "TopperLyn Dynamite." Just as with children - your dog will have a "short" or "nickname" that you call him by (Duke - Rover - Spot, etc.). Registration papers issued by the United Kennel Club (UKC) and American Kennel Club (AKC) will be furnished with each puppy/dog. Your puppy will also be eligible to be registered with NAVHDA.
Testing: We fully subscribe to the concept of “testing” our dogs. We strongly encourage all puppy buyers to test their dog either through the North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association (NAVHDA) or [if eligible] through the Jagdgebrauchshundverein – USA (JGV-USA). Testing serves multiple purposes. First it helps us, as breeders, evaluate our breeding program by seeing what the strengths and weaknesses may be of the dogs that we are producing. Getting involved with a NAVHDA Chapter helps the new puppy owner get off to a good start with their new dog and establish many new friendships with like-minded people; basically hunters who love their dogs and who want to develop them into being the best that they can be. Preparation for the tests helps build a bond between the new owner and their dog. It also establishes timelines for accomplishing the necessary training in order to have a good, reliable hunting dog. We feel so strongly about the benefits of testing that we offer a rebate to all of our puppy buyers who test their dogs.
