Puppy Information
Our Breeding Program
Echo and her Pups
We had our first Small Munsterlander litter in December
of 1996.  We had another litter in August 1999, March of
2001, August 2002, and two in the summer of 2003. We
only breed proven hunting stock; we hunt our dogs
extensively here in Iowa.  We sell puppies only to hunting
homes.  We have placed puppies in homes from
California to New Jersey and Texas to Canada.
Since we want to evaluate our litters we encourage all buyers to test their puppy in the
NAVHDA Natural Ability test. This helps us evaluate our breeding program. All of our personal
dogs have been tested. We also strive to place our puppies into loving, hunting homes.

When emailing for information about obtaining a puppy, here are a few things that we would
like to know about you:

1. What do plan on hunting with your Small Munsterlander?
2. Do you plan on testing (NAVHDA, other) your Small Munsterlander?
3. Do you plan on breeding your Small Munsterlander?

These questions will help us to place the right puppy with you.
*Note*-- Bird Hunting homes are
given priority over non-hunting homes.

Our Current Litters
I am not warranting the puppies sold by these or any breeders that were referred to you
through this site. It is the buyer's responsibility to discuss all matters with the breeder prior to
making a deposit and purchasing your puppy.

Here is a list of breeders expecting in the near future:

Litters from Other Breeders
Other Info:

All of our pups are vet checked and are current on their shots with dew claws removed before
leaving for their new homes.  We also recommend taking you pup to the vet within three days after
it arrives.  We guarantee the hips of our pups until 26 months old and require PennHIP for the
testing method. If a refund for genetic health issue is ever needed we will refund up to the purchase
price of the dog and allow you to keep the dog, but we will not be responsible for any vet bills
incurred.  No other warranty is either expressed or implied.  For any questions please let me know.
While we prefer local pickup, we do ship out of Omaha, Nebraska and prefer Continental Airlines
when possible.  Northwest is also available if the temperature restrictions are not in place.  Shipping
usually runs around $250 (to most locations) paid by the buyer.
Updated 6-14-09:  Both Abbey and Anna have been bred and assuming the breedings take will be
due in late July (Anna) or early August (Abbey).  Anna was bred with Charly von Sandloh
(
http://www.riverhillskennel.com/meetcharly.html) and Abbey was bred with Hunting Hills' Gunnar
(
http://robingunkennels.com)  We are planning on keeping pups from both litters, but assuming
normal litter sizes there should be several pups still available.  I will begin taking deposits after the
breedings take place next week.  The price for a pup from either litter will be $1000. I will post
more info here when available.  For more info please contact me at
smallmunster@hotmail.com
Charly von Sandloh
Anna
Anna is due in late July if the breeding takes.  All of Anna's info can be found on her page on this
site.  Charly is a German import and his coat, confirmation, and hunting ability have all been tested
in the German system.  His coat and confirmation were both judged as "very good" and his HZP
was 183 and his VGP is an impressive 331.  He weighs about 48 lbs and is 54 cm tall.  We chose
Charly as a stud because of his nice confirmation and hunting ability.
Abbey
Gunnar
Abbey is due in early August and was bred with Hunting Hills Gunnar.  All of Abbey's info can be
found on
her page.  Gunnar is a son of  German import VC Cody vom Apfelbaumbach the father
of two of Abbeys previous litters.  He has demonstrated tremendous versatility with
the following
list of accomplishments:

NAVHDA-SMCNA-UKC Registered

Sire: Cody vom Apfelbaumbach (German Import)

With his smaller size, abilities, and very nice temperament he was an obvious choice for Abbey's
last litter after we have ha
d such success with Cody's litters.
Abbey and Gunnar due early August 2009
Anna and Charly due late July 2009
