Sanders Bloodhounds

Sanders Bloodhounds breeds bloodhounds in La Follette, TN, on the Cumberland Plateau near Knoxville. Melissa Sanders has worked with bloodhounds for years and arranges health screenings for hip dysplasia and cardiac function as recommended for the breed.

Puppies are raised indoors with supervised play in a secure yard and introductions to common household sounds and routines. Early socialization includes visits with friendly neighbors, brief outings to local parks, and calm exposure to cats and other pets. Each litter is accompanied by a custom record of early milestones, photos, and notes on personality traits.

Adults live as family companions and take part in beginner scent work games to nurture their natural tracking instincts. Sanders Bloodhounds provides ongoing guidance on training, health maintenance, and integration into home life beyond placement. Prospective owners visit to meet adults and observe daily routines before choosing a puppy.
