Our Mini American Males


Most, if not all, our males live in & are loved by co-own homes in Colorado and Wyoming! They go through STRICT evaluations before staying in our breeding program. They MUST do super on structure and personality evaluations as well as clear health testing.  We are looking for athletic dogs that have very balanced outgoing personalities and the structure to hold up for many years doing performance events as well as win in the show ring.  
​
***ALL OUR DOGS ARE WICKETED for height - the heights listed are ACCURATE!***
MOST OF OUR STUDS STAND TO APPROVED FEMALES!
