We've added 2 new AKC Registered adult males to our breeding program. "Fremont" is a handsome black/tan and "Hedwig" is a super nice Brown/Tan. We have every reason to believe these 2 fellows will help continue the quality we strive to achieve in our pups.
Both of these guys will give us New Bloodlines to go forward with.
We appreciate both breeders who gave us the chance to acquire these guys and their trust in us to care for one of their babies.
We spent 3 days traveling to acquire these 2 guys but they were worth every second of the trip.
Would like to take the time to also say how much we appreciate the 3 Couples from Florida who met up with us at our Granddaughters Beach Wedding in Florida to receive the 4 pups they purchased. We hope ya'll are enjoying the spunky lil bundles of fun!

HPA Harlequin Pinscher Puppies & AKC Miniature Pinscher Puppies

Genetic Testing isn't a "Sales Gimmick". It should be a tool used to "CLEAR" your bloodline of Genetic Diseases.
Unfortunately we are seeing those who are simply using it as a "Sales Tactic".
"DM" is a real issue in Min Pins and Harlequin Pinschers yet FEW breeders are making an effort to Test and "CLEAR" their lines of this devastating disease.
"WHY". Money talks and the ignorance of buyers allows them to continue breeding and selling pups with the genes associated with the disease.
Testing is only as effective as the morals and ethics of the breeder. Testing them continuing to breed dogs a breeder KNOWS has the gene is a disservice to the breed. It's become to easy for a breeder to fool puppy buyers by saying they test but do not clearly POST the dogs actually have a gene that should NOT be reproduced.
There is no shortage of "Clear DM" Min Pins or Harlequin Pinschers so for a breeder to continually use a DM gene dog in their breeding program is nothing but "Greed".
Our beloved Breeds are known for 16 years life spans but DM can cut that in HALF.
Say "NO to DM". Only BUYERS have the ability to make Breeders held responsible for what they genetically produce.

DM - Fatal Gene most often occuring in Min Pins and Harlies.
It could be wiped out but breeders refuse to remove their DM gene dogs from their breeding line up as Puppy Profit outweighs Protecting the Breed.

Degenerative myelopathy (DM) is a disease that affects the spinal cord in dogs, causing progressive muscle weakness and loss of coordination. It acts similarly to Lou Gehrig's disease, or ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), in humans.

It is a fatal disease with NO CURE and heart wrenching to watch the dog become more and more paralyzed with breathing difficulties till YOU have to make the decision to have the dog put to sleep. ALL because a breeder couldn't pass up making a buck.

Never Ever buy a Puppy from untested CLEAR parentage/Lineage.

It was brought to our attention today that Janice Burns is claiming to have HPA Registered dogs.
Ms. Burns was banned from HPA and all her papers were revoked.
Claiming having HPA papers that have been revoked is like claiming to have a Driver's License to a cop that is revoked.

Mo Min Pin Rescue are liars. They have NEVER to my knowledge contacted me on 2 dogs I supposedly bred they supposedly have taken in.
I will always take any dogs I bred back and I've taken many others in that others have bred and rehomed them.
Don't believe everything you read on Facebook.
They have me blocked so I can't reply to their slanderous post.

ATTENTION Pet Parents!

A chemical used in Milk-Bones, Ol’Roy, Kibbles’n Bits, Hill’s Pet Food and other pet foods should no longer be considered safe for consumption due to concerns about its ability to damage DNA according to a new animal-model study.

According to the Environmental Working Group: “A scientific panel created by the European Food Safety Authority found that titanium dioxide “can no longer be considered as safe when used as a food additive.” The panel, citing concerns about titanium dioxide’s genotoxicity, or its ability to damage DNA, based its conclusion on a review of hundreds of scientific studies. EWG called on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to quickly consider whether to ban titanium dioxide from use in food."

A chemical that may damage our pet's DNA should not be fed to pets.

Titanium dioxide is on The Forever Dog’s Dirty Dozen list of additives you need to avoid in your pet food. www.ForeverDog.com/about
