Coming from farming families, we are two passionate young farmers who own our dairy farm. We have a herd of Jersey cows of approximately 150 head of which 70 are lactating. We are now certified organic for the milk from our cows and for all our field crops. We work hard to preserve the environment and develop healthy and sustainable agriculture. Our choices are constantly linked to a return to the basics of what nature offers us. The health and well-being of our animals are our priorities.
On the family side, we are parents of four beautiful boys: Clément, Éloi, David and Bastien. They are our pride and will perhaps take over our dairy business for a 6th generation of Lemieux on the farm. Work-family balance being at the heart of our lives, children follow us and learn from our passions. Our four children are daily involved as much in the work of the farm as in the tasks in the kennel; they love getting their hands dirty and are aware that with everyone's efforts, we will be able to build great things!

We had our first basset hound in 2003 when we were finishing our college studies. His good temperament and his unique style seduced us immediately. Her sad but endearing gaze, her relaxed side and her kindness towards children suited our life perfectly!
A friend who breeds Chihuahuas convinced us to get a registered dog to ensure the quality of our Basset Hound to start our breeding. After much research, we found Venus! She arrived from Texas in October 2005.

The desire to start a small breeding has always been a project that we caressed about. . Thus, it was in 2009 that we officially became Basset Hound breeders. Since then, several dogs have been born and have been imported to swell the ranks of our lines.
We will not be competing in conformation in the near future given our family and farm commitments. We are working to develop bassets that have the standards of the breed but above all, with a playful and good-humored temperament. We call them ''our happy dogs!''; we make it a priority.
The plans for the next few years are to expand our pack as nature permits. We are now better placed for our dogs and we firmly believe that by putting all our heart and energy into continuing to improve their health, conformation, education, comfort, socialization that we will remain among the elite of the Basset Hound world. We hope to have given you a taste of the Basset Hound and that one of our puppies will be suitable for you as a companion !
We have the animal passion of tattooed on the heart. Our values surrounding family and the relationship we have with all the hearts that beat here at the same rate as ours make us unique breeders!
