Hellfire English Springer and Sussex Spaniels

Joules came into season earlier than we had anticipated, sped up our fall litter plans and turned it into a late June litter plans>> Joules (FC AFTW Macks X Tina) and Pod (FC AFC Sully X FTW SH Cate) - both are gorgeous, athletic, great legs, high drive, Pod is especially biddable. I have 2-3 openings. Reserve now, we will be full long before we do the breeding.

The Sussex Spaniel Puppies Have Arrived!

GCHB Maverick and Gwynnie (needs 3 singles to finish her CH) had five gorgeous puppies on March 20th, the vernaequinox...so, we've given them the Rites of Spring litter theme. The puppies look great - strong, fat and no complications.

We care about soundness and the health of the breed. Our breeding parents are health screened prior to being bred. Our puppies are HEART, EARS and EYES checked by specialists prior to being placed. We use the Puppy Culture enrichment and development program to raise them.

NOTE: We are planning a second breeding this spring with GCH Frank and either BISS GCHB Marv or her sister CH Marge.

Happy Birthday!

Field Springer Puppy Available (SOLD)

We were unable to get this handsome fella (Zephyr x Bodhi) out of Montana, after numerous attempts...and he is ready to go now.  The eye contact in this litter is amazing, and this puppy would make a wonderful obedience dog or any sport that requires an all in, team player. He walked on leash through the airport parking lot, and busy, noisy terminal like a champ. Born on New Year's Day. Puppy Cultured, socialized, crate trained, vetted, sound, great temperament and gorgeous! $1300

We can ship to some locations, but not to any in the far east or south. We can use Alaska Air for everything west. Delta no longer allows connections for pet cargo, only one destination flights, and we can only fly to SLC and MSP now. Sadly, the new shipping regulations have made things complicated for those of us who don't live near major airports offering single destination options. 

 

 

Sussex Spaniel Puppies!

This gorgeous guy is going to be a dad again in March. Maverick is a Top 5 Sussex Spaniel and was #2 Sussex Spaniel in 2017.  We have bred him to a GCH Frank and GCHB Marv daughter - who just needs a few singles to finish her CH. She is my #2 bitch after her mom, a lovely, long/low/level typey girl, on the small end size-wise. 

Puppies are due March 20th. Very excited!

What a great gift, thank you! 

 

Happy New Year!

Zephyr had a beautiful litter of field bred English Springer Spaniels born on New Year's Day (all spoken for). Storm has a litter due mid March. There are a couple puppy reservations available. These are final litters for both girls.

That's all we have planned for springers  this year unless I can get Speck bred to the frozen Toby semen in Denver...maybe this fall. 

 

 

 

 

New Website

It has been a painful journey through time as I revisit pedigrees and pictures of so many dogs, now long gone, but after 20 years with the same web server and host, it was time to enter the 21st century with a brand new look! I especially appreciate the mobile device capability.

I am still using the hellfiregundogs.com domain, but it will soon be forwarded to the new one >> MTHELLFIRE.COM.

Trifecta Surprise!

Maverick, Marv  GG and I took a road trip to the Pacific Northwest Sussex Spaniel Club regional specialty in September, and hit the jackpot when Marv went Best in Show (BISS) for both specialties, and Best of Breed for the supported entry! But wait, there is more! Maverick went Best of Opposite Sex (BOSS) to his daughter, and Marv's daughter won all three majors, and Best of Winners (BOW). As a breeder/owner/handler all I can say is, what a day to remember! 

GG is the second of the GCH Frank X GCHB Marv puppies to become a champion, Dee Duffy's Skye finished first with 3 large majors in VA. Sister Gwynnie is almost there, with just 3 points to go. Super proud of my Marvy girls.

April is not very Springy

The Storm puppies are getting ready to fly the coop to various places, although a couple are staying in Montana. Zephy is due around the 30th, but is expecting a very small litter with Blanco and it is entirely booked. The Cate X Sully puppies are now 4 weeks old and I will be posting some new pictures shortly. A handful of them will be coming back to Montana, and there are a few available! Our weather continues to be unusually cold and snowy but the puppies are starting to get outside more and toughen up.

Some new pictures by Phyllis Ensley - There and back from the Sussex Spaniel Club of America shows in Raleigh, North Carolina. Marv came home with the BOSS - National Specialty Best of Opposite ribbon, under Breeder/Judge Doug Johnson, which is a nice win for a breeder/owner-handler! He said, "She is gorgeous..." so I have to believe it. :D

We bred her to BIS BISS Bertram Three D Captain Crunch, while we were in NC and it will be a couple more weeks before we know if we are expecting...or not. 

Happy Birthday to Marv's litter of 9 with Frank!  I kept two lovely daughters from that breeding, and am looking forward to bringing them out this summer.
