Breeding Philosophy
The basic breeding philosophies for all working dogs are essentially the same. Although breeding isn't an exact science, there is without a doubt an art to being a successful breeder. If there wasn't, then every breeder would be successful, which is simply not the case. My philosophy has come from my 35 year relationship with Joe Corullo. Am I a knowledgable breeder ? You can judge for yourself !
AKC conducted a study and found 1 beagle out of every 2,000 passes the qualifications to become a field champion. Over my 10 year beagle field trial career, of the last 9 litters produced at Black Point, we have produced the following.
* 1 AKC National Champion
* 1 AKC National Champion Runner- Up
* 1 International Field Champion
* 8 AKC Field Champions
* 1 UKC Field Champion
* 2 ARHA State Champions
( All are different dogs)
* Several other AKC Field Winning Dogs
* Over half of our pups were sold as strictly gundogs.
