Super healthy dog treats. Coconut oil is extremely healthy for their skin and coat. Dry flaky skin can heal. I buy coconut oil from Costco, melt in hot water (do NOT microwave), I added about half a can of Dr. Harvey's whole food multi vitamin and mineral supplement (available on Amazon), mix, add to ice cube trays, put in the fridge for 3 hours to become solid, store in the fridge in a bag. Do not freeze. Serve 1 a day. Your pup will look gorgeous! Results in just a couple weeks.
*Anti-inflammatory
*Boost immune system
*Promotes healthy skin and shinny coat
*Slow down cognitive decline

WAAPS is pleased to announce this planned breeding!!!!

GCH Wing And A Prayer's Sully War General SH NA1
X
CH WAAP's Chocolate Chip Sundae JH

Sully's health clearances are on my website and 100% of Sundae's passing health clearances are in my hand and will be emailed to OFA on Monday. These results are available upon request.

Are you interested in a show puppy, junior showmanship, a hunting partner, or AKC field events? This is a really nice litter to get you started! Of course we also sell our puppies to companion homes only.

Here's the hypothetical litter pedigree.

https://www.katygsp.com/2013/09/pedigree-for-sully-x-sundae-pups.html?m=1

You'll find additional information on my website about Sully x Sundae under Planned Breedings.

I prefer taking calls during bankers hours M-F but I'm available via texting at 281-202-4423.

It's only $50 to be added to the waitlist for this litter. There is no other breeder in TX selling AKC Champions WITH hunt titles WITH all health clearances at this price point (that I know of). We're also one of very few GSP breeders who feed our lactating bi***es the raw diet.

Please see Reserve Your Puppy on my website before calling me.

Thank you!!

Showing off the cutest flower dog in the world for our daughter's wedding! Remi is their first baby for sure!

The finest kibble money can buy IMO. I've been feeding Orijen to my litters for many years. Is it expensive? Yes, but it's 90% meat and just understand how many pounds of meat it takes to get 23 pounds of dehydrated product.
A dog benefits from eating nutritional diversity just like humans do.
This is their new grain inclusive formula.

Introducing our newest AKC Champion, CH WAAP's Chocolate Chip Sundae JH!!!! Sundae finished in 3, 5 point majors in a row at the Houston shows.

Breeding versatile hunting companions to the breed standard.

Are you ready for your dream puppy? AKC Champion Daisy is currently coming into season. I'm thinking of breeding her to Sport MH. HOWEVER, it's irresponsible to breed if there's no demand. I'm offering this litter at a price lower than most backyard breeders who do nothing with their dogs.
This breeding is everything the market demands while staying true to reputable breeding practices.
The Master Hunt title on Sport proves intelligence, desire to work, cooperation and nose. The AKC Champion title on Daisy proves her stunning beauty and conformation. All health clearances are on my website.
Both sire and dam are liver roan with solid heads. They will produce puppies that look like this. These are pups sired by Sport and a couple from Daisy.
Daisy is a GCH WAAP's In It To Win It MH NRD NA1 Bristol daughter.
~ A quick word about supporting reputable breeders... There's currently a flood of backyard breeders who do NOTHING with their breeding stock. They advertise Champion lines, 30 year breeder etc. They don't post a single title or health clearance. It's heartbreaking that reputable breeders are in competition with backyard breeders.
~It's $50 to reserve a puppy with WAAP. If you don't buy a puppy from me, please don't hesitate to ask me who else has quality puppies available. We're all friends in this industry. Please support the breeders who work to better the breed. We invest thousands into our breeders and again... we're in competition with backyard breeders who do nothing but breed for profit.

Two new titled hunters! Way to go Paris and Sundae!!!!!! Both bi***es finished in 4 for 4 qualifying runs!

What a great weekend for WAAP pups!!! CH Porter finished his JH title today! Owned and handled by Mindy Dang. Congratulations! Our bi***es Sundae and Paris both went 2 for 2 this weekend again towards JH. We had 5 total WAAP pups there this weekend and every pup had qualifying runs, every brace.
Thank you to the Gulf Coast GSP Club for an amazing weekend!

Hunt test season is in full swing! Remember puppy "Guns"? He is quite possibly going to be our kennel's first Dual Champion! He already picked up his first amateur field trail win for 2 points! 2023/24 are big years for this rising star. Stay tuned! Guns is proudly co-owned by Vanessa Carmean and I.
My husband, Scott, took the day off work yesterday to put the finishing touches on Sundae and Paris. Both of these young bi***es will start AKC hunt testing in 1 week and by the looks of things, will finish easily.
