Hat Creek Kennel

Hat Creek Kennel, Bloodhounds and Dachshunds, Marvell, AR, is in Phillips County and the Arkansas Delta near Helena-West Helena. With years of careful breeding under owner Tara Storey, the kennel follows national breed club guidelines and conducts standard health checks for hips, eyes and cardiac function.

Each litter is raised in a home environment adjacent to a small working farm, where puppies have daily socialization with family members and access to open fields for early scent exploration and gentle exercise. The kennel emphasizes nurturing temperaments and uses balanced training methods to prepare dogs for companionship, scent work or family life. A simple feeding program and clean, climate-controlled quarters support steady growth and calm disposition throughout the early weeks.

Puppies leave for their new homes with a foundation of basic skills and proud Bloodhound tracking instincts or Dachshund confidence. Many families comment on the dogs’ attentiveness and adaptability in both quiet home settings and active outdoor adventures.
