FoxFire Litters
by Jeannine DePalma on 09/29/10
In the year of 2010 we had 1 litter.
We have had 14 litters in 14 years well documentated here.

Sadly commercial brceeders have bred more litters in 2 years then we have in 14... But we dont need to keep up with them .
Our breeding are carefully planned and we never breed more than we can rehome. If the owner can not keep the dog.
Thus our litters are born during winter and leave latest by spring.
We have planned to breed 2 older bitches that may not take due to age.
FF Kim and FF Spirit are 5 years old. We waited until we had suitable males to compliment their strong points and faults. We do not breed dogs for the sake of breeding. These bitches may not take or have many puppies.
Truth be told FF Kim is my trial dog with rally, lure coursing & other great adventures . Even thou I want pups from her, I do not want to miss out on get a few more Total dogs on her. Our dogs are our friends , family not breeding tools. We are active every weekend until pups come in protection, rally, comformation, dancing with our dogs. Our litters need to meet our schedule.
Which is why we by pass more heat cycles then we breed.
So we need to back up the older dogs breedings with two younger dogs.
FF Ice has had one litter and FF buffy is turning 3 no litters.
So Winter 2010 & Spring 2011 as Well as the rest of 2011 we have listed our plans. Our dedicated clients wait for certain studs to have pups and now they can see the choices and the combinations we have selected for them.
We are taking deposits on FF Ice litter since she is a proven brood bitch.
But we will not take deposits on the older dogs until we breed and confirm pregnancy.
