It's been a while since we've had the opportunity to do something new, and we're excited to announce the planned breeding of Ember and Trench for Ember's first litter! This is an exciting next step in building on the foundation we established with Evony and VC Ripsnorter's Slate. Ember is a full sister to Odin (Lone Pine's In The Blind), and like her brother, she has a tremendous passion for hunting. This little girl absolutely tears up the field, has an excellent nose and search, and loves the water! She is not afraid to get in the thick stuff to find the birds. 

She earned a 152 Prize II in the NAVHDA Gun Dog Test, demonstrating the drive, versatility, and natural ability we value in our breeding program. She will run Utility next summer and if all goes well, she will head to Invitational like her brother.  Our long-term vision is to eventually bring the Odin and Ember lines back together, but first we're excited to see what Ember brings to the next generation.

​

We selected Trench for his impressive Utility & Invitational performance, exceptional temperament, and encouraging early progeny record. With a 201 Prize I in Utility, an Invitational score of 191, and two NAVHDA Breeder's Award litters already to his credit, Trench has demonstrated not only his abilities as an outstanding hunting companion but also his potential as a producer. His strengths in pointing, field work, and water work complement Ember's natural drive, search, and enthusiasm. Both dogs have favorable PennHIP results, and the pairing has a projected pedigree COI of 4.29%. We believe this combination offers tremendous potential for producing cooperative, driven, versatile hunting dogs with excellent temperaments. We couldn't be more excited to see what these two produce!
