About Us
Wendy & Pete with Rudi and our
last American cocker, Mickey.
Jimeny Kennels
We take our name from our first dog, Jimeny En Ami
CD, an American cocker spaniel, who selected Wendy
in 1981 and set the standard that we continue to
strive for with each generation.  

After 14 years with cockers, we acquired our first
PBGV in 1995.  Rudi (CH Menlo-n-Jimeny Ace of
Hearts) took our hearts as the  Jimeny had so many
years before.

In 2006 we returned to sporting dogs as we brought
an English cocker spaniel home to share the spotlight,
dinner bowls and kisses with the PBGVs. A second
ECS came home to us in 2007, although lost much
too soon.

Then something completely different!  In 2011, Tasse,
a Great Pyrenees, joined the family.  She's starting
her show career and will also start training with
Behesha Doan to make sure the protection instincts
are managed correctly.  Tasse's co-breeder, Pat
Ramapuram, was also Maisie's co-breeder.  I remember
Tasse's great grandmother with my dear  friend,
Sandy Ezersky, her other breeder.  So the
connections we make link us in so many ways.

Over 25 years of action dogs -- the sporting cockers
and the nose-to-the-ground PBGV hounds haven't
dimmed our dedication to breeding happy, healthy
dogs who are true to their heritage.    We present them
here -- the past, the present, and the future.
