Bluegrass Bloodhounds produces high drive problem solving man trailing bloodhounds, available to domestic and international working homes and law enforcement. Candidates are carefully selected. Before a canine is admitted into the breeding program, it must illustrate proper temperament and confirmation (according to the American Kennel Club's breed standard), be a working dog and have health clearances.
Bluegrass Bloodhounds is exceedingly proud to have the unique honor of being the only bloodhound breeder privileged to be invited into the American Kennel Club Patriotic Puppy Program. This program provides patent pending imprinting techniques and up to date nutritional and environmental information from some of the leading universities and agencies on in-utero and neonatal imprinting and development of detection canines. We have taken their imprinting techniques for explosive detection canines and modified the imprinting techniques to accelerate the development and improve on the abilities of scent specific man trailers.
Since introducing the modified regiment into our program of selectively bred working dogs, we have been able to consistently produce outstanding working canines. Approximately 90% of our pups go into Law Enforcement (or DOC), 8% into Search and Rescue and 2% into game recovery. We have been able to produce 14 pups with the FBI Scent Evidence Team (15th to be placed in January of 2025), 2 with National Park Police, 2 with Homeland Security, 1 with the Drug Enforcement Agency, 4 consecutive (2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023) Trailing Dog of the Year and the only
Law Enforcement K9 awarded
The CW Dog of the Year 2021!
Strong genetics developed over a decade of selective breeding in combination with an intense regiment of early imprinting, stimulation, desensitization, and nutritional protocols allows us to develop some of the best working bloodhounds available in the field today. Bluegrass Bloodhounds produces heroes, one litter at a time. We not only guarantee their health but also their workability!
