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.

We are members of the Pacific Northwest Sussex Spaniel Club and the Hellfire Sussex Spaniels compete in conformation, obedience, rally, barn hunt, hunt tests and tracking venues. Every single one of my Sussex was OWNER/HANDLED to its Championship and Grand Championship. When showing Maverick, I won 7 NOHS Owner/Handler Best is Show awards,. Additionally, I have finished three Top 5 dogs to Westminster Invitations. Thus far we have bred 11 champions, with a few more still to finish.
We only occasionally breed our fully health screened, finished champions, and although we are no longer placing our puppies in conformation/show homes, we enjoy watching our puppies succeed in a variety of other AKC competition homes and as well loved family pets. If you are researching the breed, we have a helpful information webpage just for our little brown dogs - feel free to ask questions about what it's like to live with one!
