The Girls

 

Bob Thaves once said that Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did but she did it "backwards and in high heels". A similar observation could be made about Swissy bitches.

Swissy bitches are the original multi-taskers of the dog world. Historically they not only whelped & raised the puppies, but they also helped to protect the farm and pull carts to market, just as the males did. 

Like their forbearers, today's Swissy bitches can be found participating in every event and activity right along side of the males. From weight pulls to dog shows to being therapy dogs, they can do it all.

Although I often say the boys are my favorites, the truth is I adore my girls and I'm so glad I have the privilege to share my life & home with them.

Tye and Chance were the foundation of Dufenhof and most of my current Swissies go back to one or both of them.

To see photos, pedigree information, clearances and general information about Chance, Tye or any of my beautiful girls, click on each girl's name in the sidebar to view their pages.

For additional information about any of my Swissies, please feel free to contact me.
