Our breeding

Raised within the family.

Our puppies are born and raised within the family, sharing everyday life with us.

Health, temperament and enthusiasm for working together guide our choice of parents. Our dogs join us in everyday life, out hunting and at retriever competitions.

We enjoy their willingness to work with us and their ability to join us as a group wherever we go.

Audrey showed a clear head from an early age. She has an excellent nose and a remarkable ability to find game, showing instincts that cannot simply be taught.

Blossom vom Sagberg

Blossom is our young bitch from the B-litter, a daughter of Jersey Girls Velvet. We are giving her time to develop. She already shows promising natural ability and a very good nose, while still learning to manage her enthusiasm and all those interesting scents.
