All dogs we breed from are fully health tested including if we find necessary MyDogDNA.com profiled. We are a listed breeder on their page. We do NOT bred dogs with feet, eye, heart or comformation issues simply because none of these trades would advance either the breed or the performace of the animal on the field. Majority of litters we bred are low COI outcrosees, which tend to lack much of any inbreeding. To do so we source between coursing and racing bloodlines worldwide. Typical COI x-double is under 6-8% over 12 generations making our dogs geneticly diverse and bred with longivity in mind. Through extensive health testing and selective outcrossing we try to produce healthy animals in body and mind who can do a days work. Our greyhounds are bred to chase and we believe this is the core principle of the bred standard!
A greyhound is a dog which chases by sight a moving target afterall.

Greyhound Poem
Written by Denise Dubarbier
I didn’t really want you, I wasn’t really sure
And I’ll admit I had my doubts, when you came through that door.
Not small or cute or fluffy with big soft puppy eyes,
But tall and thin and bony with bald pink bulging thighs.
You weren’t the kind I had in mind, not in any way,
Perhaps it would be better if I took you back today,
Before we know each other, it really won’t be kind
To keep you here for one more day and then to change my mind.
But against my better judgement I decided you could stay,
And quickly I discovered you were kind in every way.
Your gentleness and patience really stole the show.
“Why these dogs are wonderful, I must let others know!”
You’re my gentle giant, who just needed the chance,
To show us all what you could be, to wipe away that history,
Dispel our preconceptions, that put us all to shame,
And so we come to know and love what lies beneath that frame.
And now I’ve come to understand,
What I missed at the start,
That Greyhounds need that great deep chest,
To house their great big hearts.
