About Us

I became involved with Irish Wolfhounds in 1990. And what a journey it's been.

My intent was for a family pet. But the show bug bit and exhibiting has become a big part of my life. I enjoy exhibiting and the competition. 

  

But what I really enjoy is the friends that I have made all across the country and all over the world. I have also been lucky to see Irish Wolfhounds on each coast and in many countries. Over the years I have been fortunate to have bred or owned some wonderful dogs.  

  

My kennel Coleraine was started on the east coast in New Jersey. About 25years ago we moved to Lawson Missouri, where we are now located. 

  

My goal is to produce to the best of my ability, Irish Wolfhounds, that are sound in mind and healthy. I also believe in breeding true to the standard.

  

Health testing is very important to me. All Irish Wolfhounds have hips, elbows, eyes and hearts tested. Liver shunt testing is also done on puppies before they leave.

  

I am a member of the Irish Wolfhound Club of America. Delaware Valley Irish Wolfhound Association and Northstar Irish Wolfhound Association. I have also judged the Irish Wolfhound National as a sweepstakes judge. And a few regional Specialties as a sweepstakes judge.

My husband Jeff has been a big supporter behind the scenes. I could not have traveled this journey without him
