Thank you for your interest in obtaining a Lucky Hit Anatolian Shepherd Guardian pup. Below is Information Regarding Lucky Hit's Pup Reservation, Purchase, and Pick Up Policy! Click on the underlined word, "contract," below to access a copy of a Lucky Hit Contract.

Lucky Hit's Next Litter is planned for spring, 2008.

The Sire will be Lucky Hit Shadow Kasif (CASE) (OFA GOOD). Case is a superior proven working Anatolian. He lives with goats and other farm animals in the large pasture full time for his entire life. In addition to his outstanding conformation, Case has a wonderful guardian temperament, excellent demeanor, and correct guardian behaviors.

The Dam will be CHAMPION Inanna Bethany Bay of Lucky Hit (OFA GOOD). Bethany is also a proven working female with excellent conformation and temperment. In addition, Bethany is an AKC CHAMPION. We are expecting these pups to be amazing!

Both SIRE and DAM are proven working livestock guardians with excellent conformation and I expect the pups to be top show quality. I will provide additional information regarding the sires and dams when we talk. Please contact me with any questions you may have!

Because our primary breeding selection criteria is designed to genetically concentrate the superior working behaviors and ability of working Turkish Anatolians, we believe our pups are best suited for individuals seeking an Anatolian with superior working ability rather than merely a pet or companion Anatolian.

Our Anatolians' genetic backgrounds concentrate the best working demeanor of the Anatolian with proven superior working behavior and ability. We raise all of our Anatolians in a real world guardian situation with a mixture of animals, including goats, llamas, geese, and horses. We are surrounded by a variety of predators, including coyotes, dog packs, cougars, fox, bob cats and the occasional two legged predator.

As a bonus to their great working ability, our Anatolian pups have excellent conformation! We have produced a number of AKC Champions and one of our Breeding males has been ranked by AKC as the #1 All Breed Anatolian and received First Award of Merit at the Anatolian National Specialty and at Westminister in 2006.

If you are interested in my blood lines and would like to reserve a pup, please contact me using the contact information above so that we can talk. After we've talked you may want to reserve a pup in your name. The pups are eligible for registration with the Anatolian Shepherd Dog Club of America (ASDCA) and the American Kennel Club (AKC). I have raised and owned working Anatolians since 1985.

I sell my pups for $1,500.00. Special Pick Puppies are $2,500.00. To reserve a pup in your name, I first require that we talk and that we both believe your home is a good fit for my genetics. Prior to breeding and/or birthing, I require a 10% non-refundable deposit. Once the pups are born, I require the total non-refundable deposit to be 50% of the total price to continue holding the pup in your name. (Those who have a $150.00 deposit must send an additional $600.00 within one week of notification to maintain their reservation without loss of the initial $150.00.)

Final payment is due in full when you pick up your pup at my ranch or no later than the day the pup becomes nine weeks of age. Failure to make the final payment by the time the pup reaches nine weeks of age indicates you no longer have an interest in the pup and forfeit your non-refundable deposit.

We sign my contract at the time you make your final pup payment and pick up the pup.

If for some reason you are unable to pick up the pup between eight and nine weeks of age, a $500.00 a month boarding/training fee is charged beginning when the pup turns nine weeks. In addition to the pup's purchase price, you are responsible for all expenses of any and every kind incurred by the pup while it is in my care from the day the pup turns nine weeks until you pick up your pup. The boarding/training fee must be paid monthly and in advance beginning on the day the pup turns nine weeks. All additional expenses are paid monthly as incurred. However, the practice of leaving a pup here for me to raise is firmly discouraged.

Pups cannot be picked up by their new owners prior to eight weeks of age.



The picture below was taken in 1985 of EBELING'S KASIF (Casy), my first Anatolian, sire of Conard's Tawny Kat, grand sire of Lucky Hit's Tawny Shadow and Lucky Hit's Tawny Autumn, great grand sire of my 2001 and 2002 litters, and great great grand sire of my 2003 litter. Casy was an incredible working Anatolian and I often use my memory of his demeanor, behavior, and character when I am selecting Anatolian pups for superior working ability!
