About Us

Red Ledge Kennels currently resides in Pelham, NH. We focus mainly on AKC Rally and Obedience, those being our favorite events. We used to show in 4-H but no longer do since we have aged out. We are not a breeding kennel, this is just a site devoted to my dogs and the work I've done with them. Currently we have one Brittany, though we hope to add in the future. I first started training and showing dogs somewhere in 1997.

Our Name
    Our name came along at an off time. The house we were originally going to move into was on "Ledge Rd." Brittanys are a reddish color and so are most birds. "Red Ledge" seemed to fit for a Britt kennel. Well we didn't ended up on Ledge Rd but I kept the name.

How We Got Started
    I grew up around dogs, training, grooming, and taking care of them. I was always happy to take a dog for a walk or brush them out. I was 8 years old when I first got my own dog. He was a male Maltese pup named Andy [Ragmop’s Wagglin’ Andy CGC, (4-H Titles: CD, CH, & CGC)]. Andy and I became very active in 4-H. Once he turned a year old, we entered in some AKC matches and a few shows. Andy wasn’t “breed quality” but he was an awesome dog and I loved him. At our first match, there were about 18 other Juniors in my class, Novice Junior. Andy did awesome that day, as we both took 2nd. Later we competed in Obedience and did pretty well. We never showed much, mostly focusing on 4-H, Agility, and Obedience.

    A little later on in Andy’s life, a Scottie attacked him after his long down in the Obedience ring. Thankfully there was no blood, but Andy became ring shy. I had loved Brittanys; I thought that they were just the best dogs. I had taken good care of Andy, and I had time for a pup, so my parents said that I could get a puppy. After some months and weeks of waiting, I got my first Britt, a male named Flash (Triumphant’s Flash Forward RA CD CGC). My passion for Britts and dogs stayed, so after some years I decided to start a kennel of my own; Red Ledge Kennels.

    Here at Red Ledge Kennels we take pride in our dogs and their accomplishments. All of our dogs have a special place and roll in our Kennel and hearts. We are proud to have dogs that are trustworthy and obedient. Dogs that we can take any where and will behave their selves. All of our dogs live in the house with us and are part of the family. At Red Ledge Kennels, we strive for a dog with a great temperament and soundness.

Red Ledge dogs are great companions, family pets, conformation dogs, and are prime candidates for performance events (Obedience, Agility, Field, etc.).
