Blythmoor

Blythmoor, Harriers, Independence, OR, is a family-run kennel raising healthy dogs in the Willamette Valley near Salem. Margie Dykstra participates in breed club activities and follows recommended health screening for hips, eyes, and cardiac function.

Puppies are raised inside the farmhouse and spend time outdoors on fenced pastures to build confidence and strong social bonds. Adult hounds enjoy daily scent-work sessions across wooded trails and open fields.

The kennel reflects a commitment to preserving the breed’s working heritage while ensuring ease of integration into family life, and testimonials mention the gentle nature and adaptability of Blythmoor hounds in both rural and suburban settings. Each litter benefits from early exposure to varied sounds and handling, supporting gentle temperaments and trainability. Whether placed in active hunting homes or pet-focused families, these Harriers carry a legacy of resilience and steady stamina. Prospective owners can discuss health records and lineage with the breeder directly.
