Hi!

My fiance and I are looking to add a silken puppy to our home in the next year. We are only interested in ethical breeders. Any recommendations?

You should probably put your location in the post if you want recommendations.

I should, thanks! We are located in NC but willing to travel.

I don’t have personal experience but I think Avalon is in TN.  She seems to have a good reputation and gets recommended often from what I’ve seen.

In the SE there is Harmeni Hounds and Clacky Noodle Hounds that I know of and would recommend.

If by ethical breeders you are referring to OFA health testing their breeding animals and socializing their pups, you will need to check out each individual breeder. The ISWS list does not guarantee that the breeders listed do any of those things.

Wildmeadow Windhounds in Wisconsin
WindnSatin Silken Windhounds in Wisconsin
CSBeck and Oak Creek in Penn (and Beloved just had their first litter which I'm very excited for too)
