About Prickly Pear Kennels
Prickly Pear Kennels is a veterinarian supervised pudelpointer breeder based in Frisco Texas. Prickly Pear Kennels was founded by Matthew and Coleman out of the necessity to spread the excellence of the pudelpointer breed to sportsmen and women across the country. It was founded on the principle of breeding for extraordinary temperaments, great health, and excellence in the field. Every step the kennel has taken was made in order to produce the highest quality bird dogs in the field and in the home. Our hope is to pair families with the missing puzzle piece their home is missing, and filling in that gap with the ideal companion for waterfowling, upland hunting, blood trailing, outdoor experiences, and family companionship.
Dr. David Cinclair d.v.m. supervises and advises ideal care and lifestyle for all operations at Prickly Pear Kennels. All breeding is done under close supervision by one of the best in the business in order to provide the best quality of life that the dogs deserve. All dogs at Prickly Pear Kennels are screened by OFA prior to breeding to examine the hips and elbows. We here at Prickly Pear Kennels are very serious about two things; producing top notch pudelpointers and taking every precaution to provide the best life for our dogs. We love our dogs and hope to share that love with you.
