The Future of Covenant Farm Puppies

We faced a serious crisis in 2014. We expected 13 litters last year. We had only five. It has been a financial disaster of huge proportions for our family. As a result, full waiting lists of puppy customers were disappointed, but worse yet, we didn’t dare start any new waiting lists while so many of our females (and a stud) were having infertility problems.

Out of this disaster, we have out 7 of our 16 dogs to alleviate the daily burden of expense that we cannot bear. We trust in God that our situation will improve this year, but a down-size is necessary at this point.

Here is a rundown of what you can expect in the near future:

MASTADORS: Annie lost 7 out of 8 puppies in her last litter and has been retired. Ruby, daughter of Shelby & Rob Roy will replace her, but we have no idea when she will have her first litter, or even if she is suffering from the infertility that some of the other lasses have. I am referring folks to three other Mastador breeders whom I trust, and from whom I would buy a puppy myself. For those on my waiting list, I honestly have no idea what to tell you at this point. I’m sorry.

Mastador Gracious Guardians – Texarkana, TX (Melinda Faulkner) [email]
Bieber's Mastador Puppies– Becker, Minnesota (Melissa Bieber) 320.267.8034
Oliver Acres Puppies – Greenville, Indiana (Alex Oliver) 812.786.3473

If you contact any of these breeders, please tell them you were referred by us.

ENGLISH MASTIFF: Lilly will have her next litter probably in July or August. There is a waiting list if you are interested in a puppy from this litter.

CHOCOLATE LABS: The next litter of chocolates will probably not happen until November 2015. This page will be be edited if that situation changes.

YELLOW LABS: Rob Roy is not siring successfully. The next yellow litters we have reasonable confidence in will be Carly and Cate. These lasses are owned by Auburnlea Farms. Carly is the daughter of Kelsey & Rob Roy, Cate is the daughter of Shelby & Rob Roy. The stud is their black English male, Coalby. Both litters will have yellow and black puppies.

BLACK LABS: See above

WAITING LISTS:
Because of the infertility issues, we are no longer putting folks on waiting lists until there is a confirmed pregnancy. If you are already on one, you will of course be given first consideration when a litter is successful. Otherwise, we will advertise our litters as they are born, as we used to do in the “olden days”.
