Glen Ellen's Don't Take my Man Jolene
(GrCH Bucky x CH Phemme)
She is our dream companion, super fun show dog, hiking buddy (she can swim!), and first time mama of eight healthy puppies; OFA CHIC #208321 certified with GOOD hips, normal spine, patellas, heart, and eyes. BOAS unaffected and OFA certified with a remarkable 0 on the RFGS scale!
Jolene is a fawn sable pied carrier with urajiro shading like her sire, Bucky. She is 10 points shy of her ABKC Champion title.

Buckaroo's Sarsaparilla "BUbbles"
*Bubbles is offially retired!*
"Backflip Bubbles" is our classic blue brindle sweetheart and the daughter of Peaches and GrCh Bucky. Bubs is an extraordinary athlete and a grounded, loving family member. She has OFA Good hip preliminary evaluations, minimal spinal anomalies, OFA certified Normal heart, eyes, patellas AND has scored a 1 on (BOAS unaffected) on her respiratory function grading scale (RFGS) test and subsequent OFA cert, which is a pretty big deal for our breed. Bubbles is my pick out of the litter to continue the legacy over here of healthy, correct, open breathing, intelligent and kind family dogs. Her puppies are proving to be wonderful examples of the breed with gorgeous temperaments, strong and sound structure, and open breathing.

Superwoman Diana of Glen Ellen
(GrCh Bucky & Ch Phemme and littermate to Jolene and Drover.)
Our Diana is a stunning, correct and loving little fawn sweetheart. She has her OFA heart, eyes and spine (all normal). Her hips were evaluated by BVS as FAIR or, potentially, GOOD and will be submitted for OFA evaluation before her next litter; normal patellas, elbows and BOAS OFA score of 2 - not perfect like her littermates, however she is very athletic with excellent respiratory stamina, Knowing this about her, I paired her with an exceptional breather for her first breeding to support her puppies and their potential for open breathing; her singleton Bruce at 8 months-old is not only gorgeous, kind and correct, but I've received EXCELLENT feedback from his family and his trainer that his breathing is fantastic. Her one bear cub Bruce is an exciting puppy with quite the legacy behind him of Excellent Hips x2 (his sire and great-grandsire), plus his grandsire Bucky (OFA GOOD) and grand dam Phemme (OFA Good.) Stay tuned for more about potential Bruce contributions in the future, and for Diana's next breeding at the end of 2026.
Kiki came to Glen Ellen at 8 months-old and ready for some TLC. She has proven to be the kindest, most precious and big-hearted pint-sized pup I've ever known. I simply can't fathom a sensitive, connected dog like Kiki in a large-scale breeding operation. She has completed our home, and gifted us with Angus... and recently her "Renegade" litter of three perfect pied boys. (DOB 5/12/26.) Captain Kirk (as we call her) has had an OFA Spine evaluation which was fabulous, and my vets at BVS were able to see her tight, perfectly formed hips (hence Angus' hip scores!) that I am planning to certify soon; sound & certified patellas, RFGS OFA and heart. Her pedigree is one I've been obsessing over for years (here is a link to her sire's Ingrus pedigree.. and her dam Fucci is chock full of beautiful, classic examples of breed type, as well:
I'd love to breed Kiki for a final litter in 2027 for more show prospects with lovely temperaments, sweet expressions, beautiful bone and movement... and vibrant health. What a gift this little girl has been to our home, and to my little program.
