About us...

Way back in 1987 I saw my first tri colored ESS. I was hooked and went that day and bought her sister, Rosie. Rosie was slightly marked. The tan was barely visible but I was so pleased and she was such a loving friend and great mother! I bred her to a liver and white male, not understanding the recessive nature of the tri genes, and got only L/W and B/W puppies. After my first failure at breeding tri color puppies , I saw an ad for a B/W/Tan colored male. This was Applejack and the beginnings of our tri colored lines! 

Applejack was a loving and gentle children's companion. He would climb ladders and even jump on the trampoline with my children. Rosie and Applejack went on to have many beautiful B/W/T puppies! I was the only breeder in the area at that time breeding for these colors. Between the time of Rosie and Applejack up untill 2002, life circumstances prevented me from raising our beloved springers. They were the perfect family companions and many times over those years I had said that I wished we could have a chance at another puppy from them.

In 2002 I saw and ad for a liver tri female in the paper and decided to go down and take a look.... One look at Claudia's adorable face and I just had to bring her home, We loved her so much that we decided to get another pair of girls, Iris and Dovey, from the same kennel...and so it began agian!  When I got Claudia's pedigree I made a thrilling discovery! Flint Hills Billy Ray was out of our original lines. This became apparent when Iris and Dove's pedigree's arrived. Our original dogs, Rosie and Applejack were there; we were getting our chance to have a puppy from applejack ans Rosie! We never imagined that our current dogs were their off spring! I consider it a true gift that someone else carried on our line. Those lines have come full circle and home to me!

We have had so many years of love raising our Springers and though we will always have some of them around I have decided let my lines go on in dogs raised by my daughters. This move has
