Welcome to Knight-n-Troll's Sleuth Hounds. We are located here in the
Midwest, and offer exceptional Bloodhound Puppies for your next pet..
Our "Genepool" is excellent, and our litters show uniformity in our
breeding. We have all colors present in our breeding stock, and
generally have 3 litters per year; two are dual Pedigreed (ACA and APRI),
and one is triple Pedigreed (AKC, ACA and APRI). Many of our puppies
live here in Missouri, and the remainder live in 10 states outside of
Missouri. Our puppies and adult dogs all live in our home and are
"family members". They are extremely well socialized in every aspect,
making for a smooth transition into your family when you come to take
your puppy home with you.
To date, 1/3 of our puppies have been purchased for Search and Rescue
Work, and the remainder for family pets. We are Ethical Breeders and
offer a lifetime guarantee against Genetic Defects that would cause
pain, harm, or other maladies to our puppies. Should this ever arise,
our purchase contract defines precisely what is covered, and how the
situation would be dealt with with respect to a full reimbursement or
choice of another puppy from a current litter.
Prices vary from $500-750, depending on Pedigree Status
and conformation; a $200 deposit (non-refundable) is required to hold a puppy
until you pick the puppy up at 8 weeks or older. All Immunizations,
Vaccinations and wormings are included in the pricing, and an
Immunization record is given to you along with the Pedigrees of your
puppy in a folder made especially for each puppy.
We do not ship any puppies due to health risks, but will be happy to
hold the puppy for extra weeks (at no charge) until you are able to make
arrangements to pick up your puppy. We do not Microchip, but rather
recommend that you have a tattoo placed in your dog's ear at your own
Veterinarian as this is the only absolute way to identify your puppy!
Once a deposit is made, we keep you updated with current puppy pictures
until you arrive to take your puppy home with you. We feel that it is
most important that the puppy and you have a good "match with each
other", and do everything possible to make sure that this will occur
when you pick a puppy from us. We are not raising "Showdogs", but rather
wonderful pets and candidates for Search and Rescue since this is what
Bloodhounds are actually intended for in the first place! There is no
other nose comparable to that of a Bloodhound, and use of that nose is
the most important feature with our dogs (remember, this feature is
admissible in Court as Evidence) and NOT that they "multi-task".
We look forward to hearing from you, and will work with you in choosing
your next pet with the intention of "Being owned by a Bloodhound"!
