Meet the breeder

Stacy’s experience

  • About Stacy

    Hi, I’m Stacy and I’m the main face you will see here but certainly not the only face behind our program and our springers. My husband and I devote many hours to our dogs and we wouldn’t have it any other way. They say “find a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life” so that’s what we did. We live in rural Arkansas on 40 acres where our dogs are our family first.

  • What makes Stacy’s program special

    Our breeding program is special because each one of our breeding dogs are our family. They live with us, play with us on hiking trails, boating on the lake and spending time on our cattle farm. We know each dog’s personality very well and can share that with each buyer that comes to us looking for their next Springer. We also health test all of our dog to ensure we are breeding healthy dogs

More about Stacy

  • Why Stacy started breeding

    We have always had a love for animals and dogs especially. We began our love for the English Spaniel breed 10 years ago and discovered their wonderful personality and their love for their people. We love their high drive and energetic lifestyle. We also appreciate that they are happy to hang out and relax too! We started breeding in 2021 with our girl Riley and our male Smokey. We discovered breeding dogs is alot of work but the reward far outweighs the work for us. We are 2 years in and are enjoying it more than ever.
