Hellfire Kennels

Hellfire Springers: Available adult

We have a wonderful adult male (will be 7 in March) looking for his forever home. Beautiful, leggy and super sound with full OFA health testing, great temperament. Has sired some truly outstanding offspring for us, field trial dogs, SAR dogs, Master Hunters, hiking buddies. Fantastic pedigree out of FC AFC Narvins Sully of Ivanhoe X Can/Am FTW Hellfires Fling in Decatur SH. Super gentle, sweet boy. He gets along with everyone, but we'd prefer a home with no other dogs or an older dog so he can experience the spoiled house dog life he deserves. Fully vetted and current on all de-wormings and vaccinations. Rides great in the car, loves to go. There are no health or temperament issues in this dog - he's PERFECT.

His co-owner, with whom he lives, is moving out of Montana and has sent him back to me. I can't keep male springers on my property so I am just facilitating his rehoming. Our adoption fee is $500. He's about as good as it gets in this breed. If you want to pay for it (potentially around $700-$1000), shipping is available.

 

 

Hellfire Springers: New RALLY-OBEDIENCE CHAMPION

Chip is from the 2021 Joules/Pod litter. Hellfires first Rally-Obedience Champion. The requirements for a RACH are grueling:  (sounds like “ROCK”) requires the team to earn 20 triple qualifying scores; qualifying in the Advanced B, Excellent B and Master classes at the same trial, at 20 separate events, plus earn 300 RACH points from the Excellent B and Master classes.

Home Sweet Home

I get asked all the time about our "facility".  As a tiny, HOBBY breeder that only has 1-2 litters a year, I don't have a facility, I have a private residence just like you.  I am not open to the public for tours, the very idea is absurd!

We have 360 acres with plenty of room for dogs to run, explore and hunt...and they do!  We are fortunate  to have a climate controlled indoor kennel of 8 runs. We do not keep intact male springers on the property. Our dogs are not prisoners and the springers are kenneled only at night, when we are having horrible weather (muddy floors - OY!) and during heat cycles. The Sussex are full-time house dogs. Our property is gated with several security cameras strategically placed to keep track of spaniel shenanigans. There are two, one acre puppy and dog yards, and a 40 acre fenced "yard" for the house dogs.

When we have puppies, they are live streamed 24/7 until they leave, or destroy the camera. (Usually around the same time - lol!) 

We are located near Anaconda. Yellowstone National Park is about 90 minutes to the south. A fun factoid: Yellowstone the TV show is filmed in Ravalli County, in western Montana and in Utah...pretty far away from the real Yellowstone. I don't watch the show. Most Montanans don't. We prefer 1923, which is legit and filmed locally!

Here are some pictures of Hellfire doggy life here:

We have 360 acres of rolling hills and forests to run and play on

Our puppies are whelped in the house, on proper bedding...no shavings, paper or straw

 

We have 8 sparkly clean, heated/cooled indoor runs

My grooming room is used a LOT.

The puppy yard is in two parts - this is the one acre "big yard".

This is the "little yard"  - the puppies have access to it at night and learn to use the doggy door around 5 weeks old.  The lavender gate opens to the big puppy yard.

Sussex Spaniel Art Prints

ALL SOLD! British artist, Jo Van Kampen has sent me a few  gorgeous prints of the oil painting she has done of my special boys! They are $100, including shipping. They are more gorgeous in real life than in photos.  She is doing another one of my girls Faith and Marv in 2025. I believe they are 12 x 16 in size, numbered, signed by the artist. Only 20 high quality, giclee prints were made. No more will ever be made.

Iceman was out of my FC AFC CFC Fast Tracks Accelerator MH NA NAJ CD "Ace" X Alott of Hellfire JH "Zeeza" litter

Zeeza was out of CNFC Rolling Oaks Sumday Bud X Abitt of Hellfire MH.

He was an amazing dog and I miss him every day.  He was the best dog. I wish I had started him in obedience earlier as he would not doubt have finished his OTCH.

Hellfire Sussex Spaniels: New Grand Champion!

Yay! The lovely Smoosh has finished her Grand Championship! Smoosh is a very correct, breed typey Sussex with beautiful movement, perfect bite and of course the best temperament on the planet, thanks to Marv, her mother! Note the proper tail set, below the back...something that is sadly disappearing quickly in this breed.

Hellfire Sussex Spaniels: Pax Update

It took 2 years of putting this gorgeous dog back together after he was returned to me shaved down to the skin, but Pax, Hellfires Marvelous, finally came out for his very first shows and picked up some BOWX3  points and a fabulous Group 3 in a stunning Bred By Exhibitor Sporting Group - the competition is fierce in the Pacific Northwest! 

Pax is out of my MBISS GCHB CH Hellfires Mizz Marvel "Marv" X GCH CH Three D First and Foremost "Frank" litter of 9. He is 7+ years old and getting a late start, but he still looks great! I could kick myself for not keeping him as he was the only boy in that litter. He would have have had an outstanding show career had I got him back earlier!

Bred-By Exhibitor Group 3 for Pax!
