Mother’s Day is special for every mother!

When it comes to selecting who the SP Kennel “mother” will be, we are very picky. We consider who to breed yearly after looking at her genetics, performance, and attitude as well that of her parents, siblings and puppies. Everything counts when making this important choice for the future of the kennel. The other issue to consider is timing during the year. Most of our kennel Mothers are active racing dogs, so breeding, whelping and raising puppies is a lot to ask in addition to their “other” job. Therefore we try not to bred any one too often or for too many consecutive years during their racing career.


Look a likes: Chica was a mother in 2014 with her pup, Scooby; Olivia was a mother in 2013 with her pup, Hotshot.

Congrats and THANK YOU to every Mother. We wouldn’t be here with out you.

Sneak Peek: This summer, we hope to have a brand new Mother at SP Kennel. We will not know for certain until early June but, we’ll let you know as soon as we do!

    I'm hoping for Puppet or Scooter pups, but with this kennel you can't go wrong. We'll see…

  • My money is on Izzie! No matter, I'm sure it was a much debated and thoughtful choice.

  • I'm thinking Scooter or Izzy will be the next inductee to the roster of Super Moms at SPK.
    And Daddy Dog….I'm guessing Clyde again.

    But there are so many great possibilities!

    Can hardly wait to find out.

  • I'm not guessing but I can't wait to find out! Any of those great girls would be an awesome mom and move the kennel forward. Love and pats to the past moms and their pups.
