Mountain View Kennels

Welcome to Mountain View Kennels! My name is Angel, and I have been running Mountain View Kennels since 2004. This photo of my lovely littles was taken in Washington at Lake Crescent in 2021. Someday, I hope to have a mountain view outside of my home.

I am working toward genetic excellence with several breeds and trying to hit the FP achievements.

Store bought dogs will be for sale at this price: highest puppy stat x $1,000 + $25,000 x Excellents - $25,000 x Fairs + $100,000 (if lala) + $100,000 (if female) + $1,000 x level (total will round up to next $1k).

My bred dogs will be for sale at this price: highest puppy stat x 1,000 x Multiplier + $25,000 x Excellent - $25,000 x Fairs + $100,000 (if 4x stat boost) + $100,000 (if lala) + $100,000 (if female) + 50% stud fee (if I used someone else's stud) + parental awards x $1,000 + $1,000 x level (total will round up to next $1k).

Perfect health dogs (24 HH dogs) that are bred in this kennel will be for sale at this price: highest puppy stat x $1,000 + Multiplier x $1,000 + $25,000 x Excellents + $100,000 (if 4x stat boost) + $100,000 (if lala) + $100,000 (if female) + 50% stud fee (if I used someone else's stud) + parental awards x $1,000 + $1,000 x level (total will round up to the next $1k).

Each dog is bred for one stat boost, and is trained with that stat boost as the bias. I choose the bias and highest prize for my show preferences. However, dogs with "***stat" in their name are hand shown only in their specific bias; these dogs have a multiplier of 1.5+.

I track the parental age, puppy stats, awards, and level obtained after the first day. My retired dogs have a number after their name that corresponds to their breed rank at 100 days. All active showing dogs also have their breed rank in their name, however, this rank is only updated every 5 levels, so it is not consistently accurate. I just enjoy seeing how well my dogs are doing in regard to their breed.

I'm trying to create my own perfect lines from storebought dogs. All dogs bred by me will have the "MVK-" prefix. I may list my dogs for public breeding at level 70, and any potential mate must not be under level 50. The breeding price will take into account their multiplier, level, and highest stat.

I would like to attempt a "quick" generational challenge with my Curly Coated Retrievers. The goals and results are listed below. Note: I do not know if these goals are even possible, just that I thought this up and would like to give it a try. Also, just to keep the challenge clear, all official Gen dogs will have to stay with me until retirement, however other pups may be up for public sale. One last note: levels are based on the lowest level dog, so they will all be bred when the lowest leveled dog reaches the leveling goal. Anyway, I just want to see if you can "quickly" produce high-quality dogs following this method.

*Note: I have had to change the goals from this generation on, as they were too ambitious for the challenge. I changed the stat boost & HH pair req's and added a 9th gen.

*Note: I have found 3 negative health genetics that are shared between the two males from gen3 (#12, 16, & 18). Unfortunately, one of them is a lala and the other has a 4x agi stat boost. To remedy this, I will need to bring in an extra male from the pet store. All females will either be bred to the lala or the agi male and the store bought male to try to remove this deficit.
