3/25/10 Update: It's amazing how quickly these pups change in size, personality, etc. They are very active and have been getting lots of socialization with kids, and adults handling them and playing with them.

There are still 3 pups left for sale so if your interested in one of the pups give Bob a call or e-mail us. Detailed photos of the 3 pups for sale can be seen by clicking on the yellow text below.

They have a nice enclosure (with lots of straw) that they spend their nights outdoors. They are close to being totally weaned from their mother. The litter of pups are scheduled to have their vaccinations, worming, and a health check-up on March 12th. Soon, we will be advertising the remaining pups for sale in newspapers.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   On 12/04/2009 our male "Cooper" was used for stud service in breeding a friends female AKC registered GSP. Bob Hickok is very fond of his 7-3/4 year old female "Starr" and her excellent hunting ability and he decided he wanted her to have a litter of pups before she became too old. He planned on keeping a female pup from this litter to eventually replace Starr when she becomes too old to still hunt. (Bob kept Female #3 from this litter. To view a couple of photos of Starr (when she was younger) as well as pedigree information click on this link---->
      A litter of 8 pups was whelped 2/1/2010.   (5 males and 3 females) 5 pups are white/liver/patched and three are 99% solid liver. Tails were docked & dew claws removed 3 days after birth. All pups are strong, healthy, and doing well & Starr is doing a fine job as a mother. The solid liver pups will remain solid liver, however we expect color changes (lots of ticking) to occur on most (if not all) of the white/liver/patched pups.
