About Acquiring a WINDROCK LLC Greyhound

First and foremost, WINDROCK  LLC greyhounds are placed with the understanding that they live in the home as a member of the family.

 We are passionate preservationist breeders recognized by the AKC as Platinum Level Breeders of Merit. We are the first and ONLY Greyhound breeders so recognized. We are dedicated to breeding beautiful, functional and healthy greyhounds of sweet character that enjoy long lifespans.  Our commitment to the dogs we have bred and the people we entrust them to is FOR LIFE.

WE HAVE PUPPIES!! And are planning for more!  Check out our "Planned Litters" link!!

We home raise our puppies and chances are you might have to get on our waiting list a year in advance to get one of our greyhounds. Raising greyhound puppies properly is a lot of work and we generally have one or two litters annually. Sometimes we have older puppies available. We evaluate puppies by extensive "puppy profiling" testing starting at 6 weeks of age and by the time people are ready to take them home between 10 to 12 weeks, we have a pretty good idea of what the little personalities are like and can help people select the best puppies according to needs and expectation. Most of our companion puppies are priced $4175 at 10-12 weeks and come with full health and quality guarantees. Puppies that leave here at that time are going well on lead, will stand for exam, ride well in an auto, are crate trained and house broken. They are highly socialized and totally ready for new homes. Unlike many, we will sell our best show and breeding stock. These prospects are individually evaluated and priced. Just realize what you are asking us to part with . . . 

Please check our Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WindrockLLC for latest updates!

Some of our WINDROCK LLC greyhounds are placed as show, performance or breeding stock but we place most of our Greyhounds as companions. No matter what the endeavor, we encourage participation in Puppy training and obedience classes. We do stipulate in our contract that if you acquire a greyhound from us, that the commitment be for life.  If it ever becomes impossible for a buyer to keep the dog, our contract clearly specifies the Greyhound MUST be returned to us. 

To parties interested in acquiring a Greyhound from us, be advised that we do have an approval process which requires references and possibly a home check.   

Dog Ownership entails great responsibility.  Make SURE you have the TIME and the resources to adequately provide for a dog.  A Greyhound puppy requires a fenced yard to run and play in to expend that youthful energy and to develop properly. It is EXPENSIVE to properly house and maintain even ONE dog. In the case of a puppy, it is not unlike welcoming a new baby and even with a fully trained mature adult, the impact is the same as in adding an additional family member.  To acquire a Greyhound is a commitment that will span a decade or more.  It is not a decision to be made lightly.

 If you are READY to meet the challenge of responsible dog ownership, please contact us at [email protected] Kim's cell is 970 270 1300 and Colin's is 970 270 6173. No phone calls after 9 pm MST please.

We currently have two litters that came in Feb and March of 2024 and will be ready for new homes the latter part of May. We are planning on mating "Pickles" soon and those puppies should come in June. We are currently accepting reservations. Email us to start the application process. Please feel free to phone or text Kim at 970 270 1300~~ Be sure to leave a message. 

 WINDROCK LLC puppies come with written health and quality guarantees and lifetime mentoring. Most of our puppies for companionship are priced $3975 to $4175, and we do offer a spay/neuter rebate of $100 and a 7-year health guarantee against genetic defects/disorders. Be advised that by the time the puppies come, all are usually reserved. We generally have far more interest than available puppies.

We have reluctantly made the decision to offer our lovely red and white particolor 24-month girl who we affectionally call "Wiggles" to a loving home.

This darling was one of our picks from our 2022 litters and she has tremendous potential If dog sports appeal to you. She is a charming house companion that is show trained and is AKC championship quality. Would be a great Junior's dog. She is a beautiful little girl with a sweet loving personality. Raised as a house companion, she is a lady of good graces and loves to go places.  Our 4H kids adore her, and she is a favorite "practice" buddy.  She is calm, yet playful and has the potential to excel in a variety of endeavors and could even be a dual champion if that be a person's ambition. She loves people and is a good candidate for emotional support or therapy work. Or she could simply be the best friend you ever had! We place even our very best as strictly house companions and do not require participation in dog events. We do mandate that the dog live as a much-loved member of the family in the home.

She is priced according to value and investment and youngsters such as this are rarely offered. Inquires to Kim at 970 270 1300 or email [email protected] for more information.

What Makes Our Puppies Special

Our WINDROCK greyhound puppies are raised in our home and are tended to 24/7 by a full-time puppy raising professional, Kimberly Fritzler. Kim has been raising and training dogs for over 40 years and has the savvy and know-how to bring them up right. There are many top show and performance winners in several breeds that her expertise has brought about.  WINDROCK puppies are not kennel dogs, they are home raised, and they are placed with the contractual stipulation that they live in the house as members of the family.

WINDROCK puppies are micro chipped, AKC registered, fully vaccinated and de-wormed. Complete health records are included, and each puppy is sold with written long term guarantees of health and quality. We stand behind our Code of Ethics and the genetic health of our greyhounds.   An important part of each puppy's upbringing is ongoing socialization and the implication of   "Puppy Profiling" evaluations which are valuable in helping to place each puppy with the best fit for prospective puppy buyers.  

 

Two dogs are laying on the floor together.

Every puppy goes home with a puppy care kit which includes paid AKC registration and AKC official pedigree, registered microchip, collar, leash, toys, food, treats, a personalized book all about him or her, complete health records, instructions on care and feeding, two informative books, and most importantly, WINDROCK life-time mentoring.  WINDROCK offers a two-week period in which time the puppy may be returned for a full refund of the purchase price providing the puppy is returned in the same excellent condition in was picked up in.  No matter the age or circumstances, we will ALWAYS take back dogs we have bred.!  

As our puppies are raised by mothers who are allowed to naturally wean them, we prefer to place our puppies at around 10 to 12 weeks of age. By that time, WINDROCK puppies are potty trained, going well on leash, stand for exam and are crate trained. Your WINDROCK puppy is a happy, highly socialized little guy which has been properly raised by professionals   and ready for a family to love him. We have happy puppies and happy people who love them!

 Most WINDROCK  2024 companion greyhound puppies are $4175.00 and come with a 7-year health guarantee against genetic defects, lifetime mentoring, and we offer a $100 spay-neuter rebate. Show and breeding prospects are rarely available and are individually evaluated and priced. As WINDROCK generally raises only one or two litters annually, reservations are strongly recommended.  People should note that we do not ship puppies. We want you to come to WINDROCK, to meet us, our greyhounds and see how they have been raised.

Interested parties are welcomed to call or text Kimberly Fritzler on her cell 970 270 1300 or email us at [email protected]

About Greyhound Puppies~

Our Greyhound puppies are raised in our home and have professional care 24/7. We have a considerable investment of time and dedication in each puppy, and nothing is spared in rearing what we believe are some of the finest greyhounds available.

We don't force or rush Nature and we allow Mom to naturally wean her offspring and we provide daily human interaction with the litter to give each of the puppies the best possible start in life. But it is only A START. It is up to the new family to carry on Pup's education and raise him up to be a good canine citizen. Obedience and Puppy Kindergarten classes are strongly recommended!

My old team roping partner used to say, "You get out of a horse exactly what you put into one--and good horses are made over time and with lots of wet saddle blankets."

How true. Your Pup will reflect exactly what you have taught--or failed to teach him. A trained and well-behaved dog reflects hours of one-on-one training, dedication and love. Bad dogs result from inappropriate training or no training--and neglect. Good nutrition is essential for proper growth. For optimum results, one cannot feed a greyhound puppy just processed kibble. Puppies require good and wholesome foods like fresh meat, eggs, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc for proper development. We strongly recommend supplementation of premium kibble diets with "raw" and/or natural cooked foods for the lifetime of the dog.

A Greyhound puppy will require extensive time, love, and dedication from his caretakers. He will need lots of time to play in a big yard to expend all that youthful energy. He will need gentle guidance and a lot of training to help him develop into a well-behaved canine citizen. Good dogs don't just HAPPEN. They are MADE.

If you don't have the time to make the commitment to your companion owing to work demands or family life--PLEASE reconsider getting a dog.

Some of these puppies went to show homes, but most were placed as companions.

There are some exceptionally beautiful babies in this litter.  Which one is for me?  I finally selected the dark red blob in the lower right hand corner. Named "Windrock She's Tough Enough" and we call her "Firefly"  Firefly grew up to be an exceptional greyhound and enjoyed a lofty career in which she won Grand Championship titles in the US and Canada, won a Best In Show and a Specialty Best In Show, was briefly top ranked before motherhood necessitated her retirement. She has since proven a fabulous producer with wonderful puppies. Most recently, Firefly was shown at the 2023 Greyhound Club of America National Specialty where she not only won Best Veteran, she was awarded an Award of Merit and placed 2nd in a huge Brood Bitch competition with two of her get!! We are so proud of her!
