We are located on 10 breath taking acres in beautiful Western Montana nestled in the heart of the mountains, bordered by 200 acres of conservation easment and plenty of forest srervice.  Our perfect little peice of heavan to raise our family and provide a wonderful home for our Spaniels.
Both my husband and I are native Montanan`s. My husband grew up with Springer Spaniels so of course Springers are his breed of choice! I have been blessed with the presence of a slobbery pooch my entire life since birth, growing up my family always had hunting breeds ~ Labs, Chesapeake & Cocker Spaniels at our feet 24/7, Not one day has passed that we have not had a doggy kiss goodnight!  Ever since I was little girl, I have LOVED animals
~all animals~ I would bring home injured birds and small critters to try to help them recover. I was always bringing home snakes and turtles. My favorite place in the world was outside in the barn with the horses, exploring the fields for wild critters with my dogs or chasing wild rabbits under the wood pile. To this day my favorite place to be is outside with nature, my family & my dogs! My husband and I have 4 beautiful children, 3 son`s & 1 daughter whom are the most precious gems in our lives! Our oldest child graduated in the top 10 of her class with honors & is currently pursuing a career in micro biology, we are so very proud of her! The years pass so quickly and we cherish every moment god has given us with our family and friends. Our family enjoy`s a number of outdoor activities, school sports and just hanging out cuddling with our dog`s!
Our dogs are our babies they are all spoiled rotten & receive top of the line vet care and nutrition. They are groomed regularly,  I decided to take on the profession of dog grooming in 1997.  Which I still enjoy very much! We are surrounded by dogs from the minute we wake up until the minute we fall asleep, day after day year after year! :) Our home and our lives revolve around our dogs, luckily for them they are definatley NOT your typical kennel dogs.

1999 Our family 







In the warmer weather one of our favorite pass times is taking the dogs to the river to swim, The dogs love it and what makes them happy makes me happy!
I am a total 100% animal lover and could not even imagine my life with out them. A typical day here is (hopefully) early to bed early to rise.  The Springer's are alway`s welcome in the house and take full advantage of it! The older dogs rarely leave the couch or beds while the younger Springer's enjoy being outside playing and lounging in the sun. When we go to town the Springer's anxiously await by the car as they all love to go on trips to town! During the warmer months we love going for walks (kids & dogs) and playing in the nearby creek. VISIT THE CREEK
We once placed a pup with a preacher who told us our life here is a "Labor of Love" and boy did he hit the nail on the head! Caring for our Springer's and our 4 children keeps us on our toes from early morning till we drop into bed at night! Plus the occasional all nighter it seems our girls always decide to whelp during the night into the wee hours of morning. But we wouldn't trade it for anything in the world!
What more can a person ask for in life? Lots of kids and lots of dogs! :) Amen!  2005
