THE KENNEL

My Gończy Polski kennel in the southern Harz.

I am Lucas Müller, and since 2019 I have been breeding Gończy Polski with the support of my wife in Rosperwenda in the southern Harz, Saxony-Anhalt. My breeding began with Dana; her daughter Caya carries the line forward. As a breeder, I want hunting ability, health and temperament to work together. My dogs join me in the hunting grounds and are very much part of our family.

My breeding line

Dana is the foundation bitch of my kennel. Her daughter Caya comes from my C litter. You will find their ancestry, health results and working tests in their profiles.

Proven hunting ability

Caya passed the Verbands-Stöberprüfung (VStP, an association test for independent search and flushing work) with 55 points and the 20-hour Verbandsschweißprüfung (VSwP, an association blood-tracking test) with a first prize.
