Sovereign Whippets And Gothic Smooth Fox Terriers

Sovereign Whippets and Gothic Smooth Fox Terriers, run by Yvonne Sovereign in Sanford, North Carolina, focuses on whippets and smooth fox terriers bred to meet breed standards in both type and temperament. Sanford sits in the central Piedmont region of the state, roughly an hour southwest of Raleigh.

Yvonne has been showing and breeding whippets since 1986 under the kennel prefix Sowagla, making hers one of the longer-running whippet programs in the region. She holds AKC Breeder of Merit status in both the whippet and smooth fox terrier breeds, a designation that reflects consistent participation in conformation showing and a commitment to AKC guidelines. Her stated breeding focus centers on beauty, correct breed type, and soundness in mind and body.

Conformation showing is central to the program, and several dogs carry championship titles. For those searching for whippet puppies in North Carolina from a show-bred background, this kennel draws on decades of hands-on experience with the breed. Smooth fox terriers round out the program as a second breed given equal attention in the show ring.
