Michelle Friesell, bloodhounds, Soquel, CA, Santa Cruz County near Monterey. She has dedicated many years to breeding under guidelines set by national bloodhound clubs and prioritizes health screening for every litter. Her puppies grow up in a home environment with daily socialization, gentle handling and early exposure to scent work.

Outdoor outings on nearby trails support their natural tracking instincts. Several owners mention the gentle nature and calm disposition of their hounds.

Puppies receive regular veterinary care and grow alongside other household pets and children to ensure well-rounded temperaments. The kennel operates on a small scale to maintain close attention to each pup’s development, with a log tracking milestones from birth through the weaning period. Breeding stock is selected for sound temperament, stable nerve structure and conformation, and participation in local tracking events keeps older puppies engaged in developing their natural abilities.
