I
am Glenna Sprague, D.V.M. I became involved with pure bred dogs in 1978,
after graduating from Texas A&M’s Veterinary School. Doc’s Bostons
was founded in 1994 when my veterinary technician brought in a litter of Boston
Terrier pups from a nearby kennel. The moment I saw Molly and her 3
sisters I was hooked. Molly and I practiced at local shows while I waited for a
“real” show puppy. One year later, Buddy (Oui’s kennel in Houston)
joined our family and became my first champion.
In
1996, my family and I moved to the remote Upper Peninsula of Michigan to be
closer to my aging parents and to enjoy the four seasons. I took a few
years off from showing dogs. When Paddy arrived in our home in 2000, I was
ready to get back to showing dogs . In 2001, Metoo and Rudy joined our
family. I finished these 3 dogs the following summer. Rudy also
trained in agility.
Now
I am semi-retired and am able to devote most of my time to my dogs. I
generally have 10 Bostons in my home. I breed for show stock, but
occasionally have pet pups and retired show dogs available for placement.
Genetic testing on my breeding stock includes OFA patella exams, CERF eye exams,
BAER hearing tests and spinal x-rays. I breed for sweet temperaments and
health guarantee my pups.
We
also added Jewel, a Flat-Coated Retriever, to our home in 2002. She is my
husband’s pride and joy. As a team, they have completed her CD, CGC,
Novice and Open Agility titles. In addition to her ring accomplishments,
she’s an exceptional hunting dog and retrieves ducks or geese out of the water
or flushes pheasants and grouse.
