Baker River Chinooks
Ethical dog breeder of the rare Chinook
Our new Chinook, Tennessee River Sol Ghost, loves water
The Ferncroft (Fern) and Wachusett Gulbrun Regis (Baker) litter is 2 years old today! Here is how this fine group of Chinooks looks today. Baker is available for stud and frozen is available. Cannon will have hips, eyes etc tested soon.
Wachusett Gulbrun Regis, aka Baker, was successfully collected today. His s***m count was almost 1 billion, and the motility rate after freezing/thawing was 75%. This opens the door for long distance breeding outside of New England

Baker competed in his first dog show on Sept 11 at the AKC Souhegan Kennel Club show. I’m proud of how he did!

Oh those ears!❤️
Fern and Bakers pups go to their forever homes in less than 2 weeks.
Baker and Fern had 11 puppies - 7 males and 4 females!
It’s official- Fern is expecting puppies around June 29!! After a wild roller coaster of a weekend trying for a natural breeding, it finally worked and they had a 20 minute tie.
Many thanks to Donna Russell of Wachusett Chinooks for the great advice, patience, and encouragement.
Baker enjoyed a spear of asparagus fresh from the garden today.
Baker and Fern were bred this weekend! Now we wait 28 days for her ultrasound.
Spring is coming! Baker doesn’t seem to mind the near freezing water of the Baker River.

Baker enjoyed the day running in the White Mtn National Forest. He’s maturing into a strong and sweet dog!
Baker loves his chickens, running wild in the woods, and most of all, snuggling with Puck the cat and his best friend, Amos, aka Granite Hill Amoskeag Mills.
