For several years now, I've enjoyed the company of this fine, versitile breed. While for a few years, I had the dogs as just family companions, until I was "bitten" by the show bug....and in doing so, learned about the Standard, research showed me plenty of dogs of olden days, and the goals sought by the Founders of the breed.
Working through my own goals during these years I have decided to devote my breeding program to the Ruffian bloodline. Every so often I will still co-breed a litter that is not pure, but those litters are easily identified by my old kennel name of Asti.
My pure Ruffian litters are identified by Thierry's, the old, original form of my family name, when they came over from France & Belgium.
I utilize Animal Husbandry practices here on the farm, selecting soundness - of mind and body, quality of type, working ability and enjoyable personalities for any future breeding stock.
