No dogs from our kennel were purchased, nor are bred, raised, or sold for any illegal purposes.  All dogs in our kennel are used in legal activities including but not limited to conformation, weight pull, obedience, treadmill racing, and other non illegal activities. We do not own any dog that was knowingly used in any illegal activities before or after they were in our possession. We do not condone the use of any dogs in any illegal activities whatsoever. Dog fighting is a felony in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, punishable by up to 5 years in prison, and a fine of $250,000 due to the 2007 Animal Fighting Prohibition Enforcement Act. The Federal Animal Welfare Act prohibits the interstate transport of dogs for fighting purposes.  Therefore, participating in dog fighting on any level can lead to imprisonment.  We are not interested in going to prison at any point in time.  Therefore, if you are involved in any illegal activities, including dog fighting, please do not contact our kennel for any reason. If you do contact our kennel despite this message, we will reply with a copy of this message to serve as a reminder.  Please remember, anything posted on this website should be viewed strictly for entertainment or historical purposes ONLY.   Thank you!"
