BREEDING PHILOSOPHY. I breed my
dogs for hunting skills, and also require they be healthy with good hips,
heart, and eyes certified, as
well as being sociable and friendly. This difficult task results in my
having very few dogs and only a few quality litters. After 2 years of
growth, training and hunt testing, and medical testing, I cull the dogs
before breeding whenever they do not meet my criteria. The resulting pup from such
tested quality parents should
grow into a healthy top notch hunting and companion dog. The
Boykin pup of untested parents has a good chance to suffer and require,
expensive eye, hip or heart
surgery costing many times any savings on a pup. Costs of eye surgery
$1500, single hip surgery $2000, and heart surgery of $5,000 are common. CAUTION: BUY PUPS ONLY FROM TESTED PARENTS |

The Deutscher Wachtelhund is a 300 year old breed
developed in the forests of Germany as a versatile hunting dog. It ranges in
weight from 44 – 64 pounds.
It is a water lover, and an excellent duck retriever. The name in
German means Quail dog. It is reputed to be the original spaniel. The DW flushes game like a spaniel, and tracks like a
hound making voice or giving tongue on the trail. It is a courageous dog used
to hunt wild boars in Germany and bears in Canada. It retrieves both
feathered and fur game. It is renown for its tracking ability of game such as
the wild boar, and following wounded game blood trails. The Wachtelhund has a
nose as good as a bloodhound and proves it in advanced hunting tests by
tracking 40 hour old blood trails. It is especially suited for bow hunters
needing to track wounded game. Although there are no stories concerning the
Wachtelhund turkey hunting in Germany,
the Wachtelhund is building its own legends as a turkey dog here in
the United States. Several hunters have bagged 20-24 turkeys in several states each
year for several years. A
liver brown dog does not need a camo bag to hide white spots like droppers from pointer- setter
crosses. The German
breeding practices are strictly defined for health and hunting skills and strictly enforced. Since 1965 the DW registry (VDW)
enforces a breed order that requires both excellent health and proven hunting
skills before the dogs may be bred. The DW tracks miles after its game. It will hunt head high in the air
scent or nose close to ground. The DW is an independent thinker hunting
alone. The DW makes the voice on the trail when it finds the game. EMAIL: jwwiii@HOTMAIL.COM
