Choosing a stud requires an immense amount of time and research.  A great stud dog is a true rarity, even from a line of great dogs.  It takes both a lot of science and a lot of luck.  At Bone Point Kennels, choosing a stud has nothing to do with who owns the dog or where the dog is located.  Often times, if we feel the best stud for a female is across the US then we will ship her to be bred.  Breeding to the best dog usually isn't the most convenient route.  Because of our strict criteria for choosing a stud, we usually breed to outside dogs.  If we feel that we have a male great enough to breed, then we will use him.  Feel free to contact us for stud recommendations or to get more info about a particular dog. 

Studs are only available to approved bitches that have something to offer the breed.  Bitches must have OFA or PennHIP certification of being HD free, be a proven hunting dog from proven bloodlines and be a good representative of the breed.
