Backstory
Hi, my name is Nathalie. I grew up on a family dairy farm in eastern Iowa. We raised Saint Bernard dogs, but I have always had a love for Basset Hounds. When I was 16, I convinced my parents to let me get my first basset. Stella was and is still everything I had hoped a basset would be! A year or so later, I took home Sulley, and it all started from there. Today Stella is retired and her daughter, Penny, just had her fourth and final litter with Gizmo, who joined the family in 2018. We have moved off the farm, but enjoy playdates and visits there frequently.
Our dogs are pets first. We do this for the love of the breed and to provide families with a new perfect furry family member. Meeting, getting to know, and making so many people happy are some of of the biggest highlights of bringing these babies into the world. We get lots of updates, so check out how they are doing now on our Facebook or testimonials page!
Thank you for your interest and taking the time to learn more about us! Please email me below with any other questions or fill out a puppy application for information on our waiting list.
