USAMin Pin Lodge

Description:

We are Rusty & Tonya Denison, we breed AKC Miniature Pinchers and AHMPC Harlequin Pinschers. We are located in North East Texas on 2 wonderful acres where the dogs can run, hunt, and play! 1.5 acres is securely fenced just for them. WHY WE STARTED BREEDING: We had a Miniature Pinscher named Reba for 15 years before she passed away. I was heartbroken and searching for a puppy to call my own. After long hours of searching and not being able to find a reputable breeder I finally found Alice and Lucy! I knew how difficult it was to find a decent puppy, so I decided to start breeding on a small scale, and we acquired Tango!! In my journey of research and learning all I could about breeding; I came across our mentor Janice Burns with Hilltop Harlequins! I immediately fell in love with the Harlequin Pinscher and had to have a pack to call our own. We want the best for the breed and believe it can be achieved through ethical breeding, education, and exposure. If you want to learn about breeding ethically and honestly, I am always willing to help. OUR PACK & FACILITIES: Our dogs are not raised in a shed, outside, or in small cages, they are a vital part of our family. They live in our home, have their own room, (they have the house, we just live here). Space allows for males and females to be separated when females are in heat which allows us to selective breed, or not breed at all. They all have names and their own personalities that shine through. Our adults are DNA tested for known disease to the breed. This includes (but not limited to) MPS VI, PLL, Cystinuria, Hyperuricosuria, and DM. We have a separate whelping room for our new mommys and puppies with customized whelping areas to allow for easy disinfection and cleaning. It also allows space in the event there is more than one litter if necessary. Whelping areas allow mom to be in a quiet area where other dogs do not have access to her or the puppies keeping everyone content and secure.
