Description: Breeding for Type, Character, Performance
Our Scotties are from long lines of champions. We carefully plan and scrutinize all breedings, always looking to maintain and improve the breed and paying attention to genetics. We do strive to breed a balanced Scottie who can excel in Confirmation and Performance. Our Scotties are raised in our home in a family environment. For dogs we keep, show and breed, we strive to be listed on the Canine Health Information Center (CHIC).
We are AKC Breeders of Merit - and have been for many years. This means we follow all health screening requirements as recommended by the STCA. Of course, not all anomalies can be tested for because genetic markers have not been found and so you cannot test for them.
We show in conformation because we feel it is important to maintain the breed standard. We also are active in Barn Hunts, Earthdog, and AKC Scent-work trials. We are very involved with them, I do not work outside the home because I am here with the dogs and horses.
