Eaglerock Policies and General Eaglerock Information

In the Sport of dogs ,There are many faces. I am grateful to all the people from the last forty-nine years that have not judged me and have lent a helping hand to make me and my dogs a success in the conformation and obedience /rally rings. 
Most Eaglerock puppies are sold with limited registration/alter contracts. Puppies must be picked up at our Kennel. We do not ship companion pups.We will travel to meet up with you for the cost of gas up to a five hour drive if it works out for our schedule. Responsible show/breeder/trainers with references may purchase a show/trial/breeding pup with the agreement that if the pup does not meet standards for temperament and or conformation it will be altered and placed.We can ship a Show/breeding or field dogs , grown out show-trained-ring ready pups/dogs will be priced according to their merit.

Eaglerock is my hobby,my passion, I love the dogs shows,the way it feels when It all come together and your standing in the winners ring with your first Champion or you make the breeds list or you get a qualifying leg in Obedience and get a placement or a High In Trial. I make my living running a boarding kennel and grooming for my clients, not by the pups I raise.My pups are not goods on a shelf. They don't have a expiration date at 8 weeks and have to go. Every pup will be placed only in a screened approved home.

Almost all of Eaglerock pups in the last 20 years have been tattooed starting with Captain my daughter's Sheltie in 1995.We have been a Tattoo -a-Pet owner since 1995.All of our dogs sport a TMTH tattoo with a number on their inner thigh. Pups come with a certificate to send in a get a tag. I also have pups micro chipped . Update We now micro-chip with the AKC microchip (2014)

Eaglerock pups have always had a six (6) year replacement guarantee.If your pup develops heredity hip,eye, vWd ,PFK ,perthes we will replace the dog .We also keep first refusal rights on the pups we sell. Our commitment to our pups is for his lifetime.

Please be aware of the total picture when your family is deciding on bringing a pup or dog into your home.You must be ready for commitment of 10 to 15 years to a animal that will depend on you for its well being.I will ask you questions, I may ask for references .I do home checks when ever possible.

" I just want a pet but, I want to breed her "

How I dread those words. The reason the pup is on a alter contract is because it doesn't conform to the standard.As the breeder I see the wrong color, to large a ear ,to large in size ,straight shoulder. The pup is adorable and cute, but a PET not the next show champion .

Shelties do not breed true.To be a sheltie breeder you have to have stamina for the long haul. You will get undersized, over sized ,popcorn teeth, lance canines,ears that are prick or hound ears PRA ,vWd ,hip problems or legges" pethes. One puppy or none in your litter will be a prospect.Your Champion sired show prospect that is stunning in every way grows 1/2 "over the standard ,you neuter and place and you start again.

In twenty-four years I had Shelties ,I sold only three sheltie pups as prospects. Out of those three, two were spayed and one produced two showdogs.I have kept the best for my breeding program to improve the next generation and even then the ones I have high hopes for that don't grow out to expectations are altered and placed.All pets are altered, most before they go to their new homes.

Remember every dog you breed ,you are responsible for them for life. If you are not willing to do this then don't breed.
