Meet Our Dogs
GCH Top Hat Royal Troon "Russell" MHA MH12 CGC
Russell is a machine when entering the bird field, but a family dog in the house. He has a calm disposition and goes along with almost anything we are doing. He comes from an old proven line of Herrenhausen dogs since the 1980's. He has sired numerous litters across the country and has passed along his trainability and drive. Russell is available for stud to approved bitches (click here for our Stud Contract) and we offer live tie, fresh chilled, and frozen. For more specific information on Russell please feel free to email or call.

Grungydog's Princess of Winterfell "Arya" SH MH
Arya is miss independent and still hunts for you. There usually isn't a bird left in the field when working with Arya. She is a very confident bird dog and has beautiful style on point. She is the Black Watch foundation bitch. Arya has produced 4 healthy litters, passing on her amazing traits in the field. Now she's enjoying her breeding retirement, on the couch and in the field as Dad's hunting partner.

Black Watch Queen of the Hebrides "Islay" SH MH
Islay was our very first puppy born at Black Watch. She has that same style in the field from our girl Arya and trainability from her dad, Flatbrook's Walker. Islay has an incredible nose, hunts big, and aims to please. She is a big sweetheart in the house and has a very loving personality. There is a reason we call her our quail queen. Her first litter are following in their mom's footsteps and more.

Statesman Norma 'Night Rider' Downs @ Black Watch "Fallon" SH MH
Fallon is our "keeper" pup from a litter our boy Russell sired, and she reminds us of Russell in personality. She earned her AKC Senior Hunter title just under 10 months old and AKC Master Hunter at 2 years old. We continue to work with her in the field and the ring, but most of all have allowed her to be a fun loving girl who gets along with the rest of the Black Watch pack.
