Does anyone know of or about this kennel and site. Her dogs look good to me for show. Check out the pics.

I know Renee. She is a very nice person w/ nice dogs. I almost bought a dog from her myself when I was into the UKC stuff.

Any kennel that will register their patterdale terriers with the UKC is highly suspect. I have patterdale breeders here in MN that say they wouldn't even talk with a registered breeder. I asked a breeder here in Northfield, MN, he said they were a joke. They sacrificed their credibility when they registered their working dogs. He said they couldn't even get dogs (patterdales) from any reputable breeder anymore. The breeder I know said "they sacrificed their working dog's soul." It's your choice but I wouldn't support them.

I'm sorry, I'm confused here. Are'nt working APBT's registered? I don't understand what you're saying.

I think they have some pretty dogs, but I've never heard of them before.

Apbt's are registered. Patterdales shouldn't be, they are soley working dogs. The good breeders will infuse whatever they want into them to make them better. For example, lakeland terriers, staffords, jacks, and other breeds will be mixed in from time to time to make them better hunting dogs. I'm just saying a kennel that will disgrace one breed will surely do it to the other. Anyway, their dogs look nice, I just wouldn't support it. To each their own.

"Pay attention to the poop in your own yards and stop worrying about everyone elses yard. When you start feeding my dogs, then and only then can you tell me what I can and can't do with them."


She says this because she's tired of taking heat for the patterdales. They are not show dogs.

I guess I'm still confused. Ae you saying they are mutts? The line of APBT's had to start somewhere by breeding in what they wanted. Is that what you are saying they are doing to Patterdales? Crossing to get the perfect dog just like what was done for the APBT? I'm not being argumenative, I just don't understand why one can be registered and the other can't be.
