Happy Winter! We are starting to see little hints of spring, with warmer temperatures, more daylight, and brighter sun. Right now, we have over 2 feet of fluffy powder on the ground, which is beautiful. The pack enjoys long hikes and skis and I think they prefer 0 F to any other temperature! It’s amazing how warm 20 F can feel after many morning at below 0.
I continue to hear wonderful updates from my “C” litter (Alligator Clever Fox IGP3 X Official Star de la Rouquine BH). Sire and dam passed on their unflappable, happy, confident temperaments. Pups are eager to learn, comfortable in all environments, enjoying various sports and training (mantrailing, mondioring, and IGP), and beloved companions. In fact, every single owner has told me that this is the best pup they have every owned and they are very loved. It’s been terrific to get such wonderful feedback! I am very happy with my choice of placements for this litter.
I am focusing on my dogs’ training and control as we gear up for the upcoming spring to fall trial season. I am very pleased with how everything is looking so far!
Future Plans and Updates:
- Titling: Our primary goal for 2026 is hitting the trial field and earning new IGP titles.
- Breeding: We are undecided on a Summer 2026 breeding for Sassy (Age 5). If we break, our next planned litter will be with Calli once she completes health testing and titling.
- Importing: We are currently scouting the right female to import for Pax in approximately three years.
Happy New Year! May this year be filled with good health, hard work, goals attained, and love.
Litter Update: Alligator Clever Fox IGP3 x Official Star de la Rouquine BH: Born July 10, our latest litter is thriving in their new homes. We are hearing wonderful reports of high drive, social stability, and an incredible eagerness to learn. Bear is thriving in a scent detection home, showing great promise and talent. Champ is loving life on the family farm and training toward a mondio foundation. Croc (Rook) is learning all the things a working dog needs to learn. Crunch (female) is thriving with her new family. And River is “the love of my life” according to his handler, and is going to be training in mondio ring.
New Addition to Chocorua Belgians family: Sweet Caroline (Calli) I have retained a female from this breeding, “Calli the Calligator.” Named in memory of my mother, Calli is a high-drive, happy girl who looks just like her (k9) mother and shows great promise for IGP. She loves to learn, tug, jump, and fetch.

Last update:
“Sweet Caroline du Chocorua”
Callie is my keeper female. She is a smart, fast, beautifully built female who loves to fetch, grip, and play. I am pleased to see how she is maturing. She looks so much like her mother.
This will be Moriah’s last litter. Moriah is stable, strong, energetic female, eager to work her handler, and bonds closely. She is full of life and energy, with strong workable food and tug/toy drive. Moriah is an incredible working partner, and has joined me on many adventures, from climbing steep trails in the mountains, to skijoring, to protection work and tracking.
Alligator (IGP3) and is a working police K9 and brings both sport and seriousness in his lines, which include both working IGP and KNPV bloodlines. He is impartial and neutral and confident in all environments and enjoys working with the handler. He has full calm gripping, and correct obedience and tracking.
I expect the puppies in this litter will take after the stable, confident, happy temperament of both sire and dam, and be impartial, neutral, and stable, with excellent environmental confidence and strong working drives. Contact me for more information, there may be some puppies available depending on the litter size.
Well known dogs in this pedigree include “Guido Van Valesca’s Home KNPV PH1”, “Impress de la Rouquine KNPV PH-1”, “Spike Atak Godard KNPV PH-1”, and “Jaguar Alphaville Bohemia IGP3”.
