My glossary definitions:  

Adoption: is the legal act of permanently placing a puppy dog into a permanent home, meaning he or she shall forever be in your care.

Purchase:  is when ownership is obtained in exchange for money or value which is also called buying, ownership can change easily with no strings attached.  Most things bought and owned are eventually discarded somewhere along in life.

Should a veterinarian find such a hereditary or congenital disorder, you simply supply us with your veterinarians written report and the report from the OFA or GDC, stating that this puppy dog is indeed severely affected.

Just why do Purebred puppies from a reputable breeder cost so much?

I prefer to place my puppies as pets to wonderful homes.
If you're interested in breeding or showing, contact me for additional contract information and prices!
I have the right to refuse any prospective homes!

 

We do not require that our puppies go to show homes,

but we do require a caring and loving home!

Please read our Adoption Agreement for more information!

We have the right to refuse any prospective homes!   

 

The key components to our successful breeding program are health, 

physical structure, quality, excellent temperaments, and extreme intelligence.

 

My affiliations and Registries:

1. I am in good standings and I always have been in good standings with: AKC, APR, UKC, CKC, RKF, UKCI, and more.

2. I am inspected by the AKC. Inspections Educate Breeders and Promote Better Breeding Practices: read more about the AKC inspection process online at:  http://www.akc.org/about/depts/investigations.cfm/

3. Our dogs are shown in AKC (The American Kennel Club) and CKC (The Canadian Kennel Club) events, read more about dog showing online at:  www.akc.org/events/conformation/beginners.cfm 

4. For the past 10 years I have been an evaluator for The American Kennel Clubs Canine Good Citizen Program. The Canine Good Citizen Program is a two-part program that stresses responsible pet ownership for owners and basic good manners for dogs. Read more about the CGC program online at: 
www.akc.org/events/conformation/beginners.cfm 

 

5.  In November of 2008 The American Kennel Club invited me to also be an evaluator for the The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program.  The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program is designed to reward owners who have taken the time to take their puppies to a class at least 6 weeks long.  Knowing that an estimated 90% of dogs relinquished to shelters have had no training and AKC wanted to get all puppies and their owners off to a good start, thereby they have started a brand new program, The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program.  

6. In 2004 I successfully completed the Wisconsin National Animal Control Associations (NACA) Training Academy and am certified to be a Wisconsin Humane Officer. In 2008 I furthered my education by successfully completing the NACA Level II Training Academy towards my National Certification.  My facility is licensed by my Township, the DNR, and is also inspected and licensed by the USDA (a federal license). I am not required to be a USDA facility but I want to be sure that I hold every license available to me. Other facilities may avoid proper city, town and federal licenses and most claim to be exempt from such, I feel any facility holding animals for any purpose should be USDA (federal) licensed, with no exceptions.
 
7. I am available and I offer my aid with any adoption, placements, health, foster care, education, and/or support to you. If you need to a re-home your pet I am willing to assist you, regardless of where your dog came from! 

8. I do not support private breed clubs. A private breed club member is "not" better then a non-member. If you are not on the PTA at your childs school does that make you a bad mom? Private breed club members are not inspectors, they are not certified, and they do not care for their animals any better or worse then a non-member! Anyone who has more then 3 dogs in their home or on their property should be licensed by someone whether it is their city, their state, or the federal government. Being a member of a private breed club is not a license.

9. I feel that I am highly educated in the field of animals and animal care, most of my education is accomplished by hands on experience. I am a farm girl who grew up on a large dairy and horse farm. Bonnie Brae Dairy had provided bottled milk for many in this area. As a child my grandmother, Vivian, showed and raised tiny Pomeranians; my other grandmother, Gladys, showed and raised Miniature Poodles; and my parents had Doberman Pinschers. Grandpa had a passion for Shetland ponies and horses and at times had as many as 100 which he provided to camps such as Camp Agawak, where my Aunt Jean taught the camp riding lessons. My dad later started Bonnie Brae Quarter Horse farm where he eventually added in paint horses and is now RH Horse Company. Maybe you have met some of our horses in the past at The Trinity Equestrian Center where their time was "donated" to help make some youngster smile. My mother hauled her 4 children horse showing nearly every weekend, and currently hauls my children horse showing. I have assisted with many rehabilitating situations with all sorts of animals and I am willing to welcome any new experience. I will try to answer most any questions you may have or help you with any issues you may have as well, I might not have the answer to every issue but I am sure willing to try, please don't be afraid to ask! 

10. Dog breeders work hard to keep the 300+ choices of breeds alive, read more about dog breeders at: www.dogsofextinction.info

The American Kennel Club has two wonderful programs called

The Canine Good Citizen Program and The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program

I am an Evaluator for both programs and yes you can come to me to have

your dog evaluated and possibly receive your award certificate!

The Canine Good Citizen Program
