Our Mission Statement:
We practice STRICT Natural Selection in our breeding .
Which we based on old world working lines_ not show lines.( fighting)
4 Generations of livestock & sentry guardians.
Note: We own the 1st M/F dogs that passed the Therapy dog test .(TDI)
However that reflects our work we put into the dogs NOT the breed as a whole.
They are guardians first & foremost thus they can not function F/T as Therapy dogs.
We have refused to change to meet the insane requirements of the show world.
By adapting our methods of handling ,choosing venues/judges that prefer working dogs
Our breeding decisions are based on performance OUTSIDE of the show world.
Our doundation is Princess Ali NON related to any USA line.
A 5 generation working titled dog from REAL aboriginal lines.
She is proven to throw HEALTHY - WORKING dogs.
That have taken on Cougar, Bear, & Car jackers .
Yet in the modern world she would be discarded for not being a show dog.
What we care about are written Critiques from LGD/Breed Specialist's . Who understand the breed is one of the few remaining natural working dogs in the world.
To us FCI experts in our breed rating us "excellent" proves our vision.
And allows us to keep the dogs in a natural working state
Yet sadly the CASD will become like all others in due time.
Size has doubled - Top show dogs will be bred & the working dogs ignored .
Update FCI rejected the RKF change for the CASD Bite .
Human Guardian temperaments are being selected away from..
Where Dog aggression is being bred into show lines of CAO ( imports).
We do NOT wish to walk the disastrous path many breeds have taken .
In order to win ribbons in today's society all dogs MUST look like dominos.
All this CHANGE has proven time & time again _to ruin working breeds.
Inbreeding to recreate a Champion has created the most serious genetic diseases today's.
Yet these same dogs_ carriers or affected themselves are Top STUNNING show dogs. Resulting in over breeding despite genetic disorders .
Show breeders set up newbies who are TOTALLY ignorant with the same affected stock - Thus creating a Pyramid scheme in which the truth is hidden .
Massive coverups become the answer to a inherited genetic issue..
We find excuses NOT to breed a dog not the other way around.
Dog cant work or needs surgery to breed or whelp dog is removed from breeding.
FoxFire does NOT breed for color, or for HUGE show size/height..
We breed to PRESERVE what god himself has created.
We want to take as much of the old world style dogs & utilize acceptable forms of testing (health & temperament) as a selection of breeding stock, to insure the future of this ancient breed. We fixed 5 dogs so far that do NOT meet our requirements .
Which are the MOST strict in the USA today.
Other US breeders use surgery to correct disorders .
Importing "WORKING Stock" off the beaten show dog paths was our start.
Spay & neuter substituted natural selection & culling .
Plus adherence to the working standard ,are all Vital tools of selection . A must is - allowing natural selection to weed out the weakest.
We do not use modern science to correct what nature selected against.
Our ultimate goal to alter as little as possible a group of dogs.
That were created through natural selection thousands of years ago .
Thus preserving & maintaining vs. altering the dog of legends.
We have Sentry & Working Livestock Lines .
Simply if it aint broke why fix it or in the USA "improve"?
