Available Adult Springer

10428187_787851901255735_4368305261746692627_oWe have a lovely 7 year old adult looking for her retirement home. Very gentle and kind dog, but is a country bumpkin and not used to "neighbor" dogs. We are very picky about where we place our dogs, require an appropriately 6' fenced yard. She'd probably love being an only dog, but would enjoy a canine companion, once introduced. This dog is fully health tested and sound, had two very lovely litters of extremely talented puppies. Our adults are usually available for the price of a spay. 

This dog has been a house dog  her entire life, only spending time in the kennel during heat cycles. It has always been our policy to place our retired adults in NON hunting homes - retired means retired. Only homes where they will reside in the house as a cherished companion will be considered. 

Please contact us for more information. We'd love to place her locally if possible.

Breeding Plans 2021

Springers:  Our waiting list is ridiculously long and we are not taking any new puppy inquiries at this time. Note: We only keep two (2) adult springer females and as of July 2021, we are booked about a year out. Repeat owners always have priority to us! 

Sussex:  We usually do a breeding over winter, but we do not offer puppies to the public until we have made our picks first. Patience is a virtue with this breed. 

*****************************************************************************************************************

Our litters are livestreamed and the Puppy 411 page has information regarding our kennel and placement policies. We use the Puppy Culture Workbook as a guide to our puppy enrichment and socialization process.  Hellfire Kennels is an approved  Trupanion Breeder (puppies go home with pet insurance) and we have an EXCELLENT rating for both our springers and Sussex through GOODDOG. 

We have been breeding for over 20 years, and we are an AKC Breeder of Merit for both of  our beloved breeds. In addition to our hunting companion and active lifestyle pet homes, Hellfire puppies are currently competing in AKC field trial, hunt test, agility, barn hunt, nosework, flyball, and dock diving venues.  SIX GENERATIONS of our dogs have OFA health certifications. We are proud of our sound, well built, versatile, purposely bred dogs!

Hellfire Nosework Dogs

Not everything the Hellfire springers do is bird hunting related! We have placed many puppies in professional Medical Detection, Search and Rescue (trailing, human remains), AKC Scentwork, Nosework, and tracking working venues. Barn Hunt is another fun hide and seek game where rats are humanely placed in plastic tubes and hidden in a straw bale course - the field springers rock at it!

Field Springers are epic CANINE ATHLETES. Without genetic health screening, breeding five generations of dogs with sound joints/heart/DNA and eyes  would be impossible. Dream, below, out of FC AFC Blanco X Zephyr, is also OFA CHIC certified

Hellfire Springer Spaniels | Hellfire Gun Dogs | Hellfire Kennels

Hellfire Kennels has been an ESSFTA member since 1998 - the year I made my first Master Hunter with a lovely black and white girl named Annie (never bred).  Since then we have been very active in the performance sports, have owner/handler competed to the highest levels in all of them.  In addition to our hunting companion and active lifestyle pet homes. we have bred over 10 Field Champions and Field Trial Winners, over 30 Master Hunters, and placed puppies in dozens of agility, obedience, rally, barn hunt, nosework and search and rescue venues. We have over 20 years of OFA results and ALL of our breeding dogs are fully health screened.

Hellfire Kennels is a Trupanion Breeder

TRUBreederLogo_H_BLK_2017Gun dogs, performance dogs and active lifestyle pets aren't like regular companion dogs. What they do and the drive they have can put them in harm's way. Injuries, accidents, weed awns, viruses, allergies happen and we are strongly suggesting pet insurance for our puppy owners. We've even built it into our purchase contract and have increased the warranty to 4 years, for dogs that continue on with pet insurance coverage.

Hellfire Kennels is an approved Trupanion Breeder - what this means is that our puppies go home with seasonal starter kit and a health insurance policy that is activated with our kennel's special code 24 hours before or after they leave our home. (Note: Puppies residing in FL and NY require additional Trupanion accommodations.) There is NO financial benefit to us for offering this to our puppy families other than the peace of mind that our puppies will receive excellent pet care after they leave us.

Overview of the Go Home Day Offer:
• 30 days of coverage with no obligation
• Immediate coverage, waiting periods are waived
• $250 deductible, applies per condition for the lifetime of the pet
• 90% coverage with no limits on what we pay out
• Vet Direct Pay
• Coverage for any new injuries or illnesses (more information about Trupanion online)

One of our FC AFC Narvins Sully of Ivanho  X FTW Hellfires Fling in Decatur "Cate" (FC AFC MH Mickey X Mia) puppies  slipped under my brag radar! He is being run by pro trainer/handler Ralph Botti and has earned an OPEN WIN and other placements, now on course to put us over 10 bred by field champions. PONCHO is owned by Jim Klix and is a littermate of my dog Pod.

Our New Addition

We are happy to introduce our newest field springer addition, Jack Rackem! He is out of FC AFC Warreners Sora Rail of Craney Hill X Drake Hill Anna SH, a working gun dog with trial placements. Of course he is entirely the wrong color, but he is an awesome little puppy with a solid pedigree of hard core hunting dogs and Master Hunters. I am looking forward to starting him!

For the Future - the beat goes on

The beautiful Zozzy, has passed her eye, heart, hip OFA certifications and can be officially added to our breeding roster.

This is a tall, leggy, powerful bitch with a lovely level headed temperament, like both her parents. She is so quiet and low key I  barely even know she is in the house. She is also a litter sister to Mhari Peschel's boy Bucky, who just earned his first trial placement at age 2 and finished his puppy career with 55 (or more?) points without even trying that hard.  Zozz is from our 2018 breeding with FC AFC Blanco X Zephyr
