Title: Inverness Kennels (GWP)
Post by: Kanooper on September 30, 2009, 10:24:05 AM: Does anyone have any experience with Inverness Kennels in Snohomish? They are a German Wirehaired Pointer breeder. Looking into possibly getting a pup from one of their upcoming litters and was just curious if anyone knew anything about this particular breeder.

I believe they were in to the shows as well, but I did talk to a lot of breeders so I could be confused. Not to say showing is bad but I have had a bad experience with the part show part hunt lines and next time it will be all hunt all the time.

I had a chance to talk to her at one of the Puyallup Sportsmens shows and she is the real deal. Likes to hunt not just show her dogs. From what I could gather she is very selective about who becomes an owner of her pups. She wants them to go to a home where they will be used for how they have been bred.

Whoops, Aloysia Hard owns Piemonte Kennels. Not sure about Iverness then. Iverness' home page looks great, but I could not get any further than that.

Post by: The Weazle on October 02, 2009, 12:04:10 PM: I have a dog from Inverness Kennels. Jack and Laura Myles are the owners/breeders. My dog is wonderful, well tempered, and very smart. I have a 3 yo son and a 7 month old daughter, and besides the fact she (dog) is just a bundle of muscle and energy, she is as gentle with those kids as if they were her own. My wife shows dogs for a hobby, and she also shows very well. They also hunt there dogs regularly, and are very willing to help train. PM me if you have any questions.

Post by: The Weazle on October 02, 2009, 12:06:27 PM: Oh yeah, if you want a serious hunting dog, and like the looks/abilities of a GWP, talk to Lee Root about a DD. I know that when I have time for training another dog, I will patiently wait until I can get one from him.
