Our Prague Ratters are raised
in our home.  They are well
socialized and they adore children.

My name is Kristin Boren.  I am the President of the Prague Ratter Club of America.  My husband and I as well as our two children are true dog people. Mark and I both are Animal Science Graduates.  We raise both Pudelpointers as well as Prague Ratters.  I am the President of the Pudelpointer Club of North America www.pcna.org as well.  We are currently expecting our first litter of Prague Ratters in mid January from Isabella and Bonifac pictured on the left.  Isabella belongs to me (the black dog), and Bonifac is a  Czech import.  We also own a tiny little female, Tiki (pictured below).  

Our Philosophy:
All of our Prague Ratters are raised in our home.  We are meticulous about good health care as well as cleanliness.  Socialization is of high priority.  We handle our dogs often as do our children.  We lead a balanced pack and all our dogs are followers of our good pack leadership.  Puppies from Palomar Prague Ratters will have be shown good pack leadership and come to you as balanced individuals.  It is up to you to continue being a good pack leader once you receive your puppy.  Selling you a puppy is not where our relationship with you ends.  It is a beginning.  We like to keep in touch with our puppy buyers and are always here to coach you over the phone to develop your puppy into the perfect canine companion.  So, please know that we are always only a phone call away.
We do our best to match the right puppy with the right family.  We don't maintain a "picking order" for our litters,  but instead help guide you to getting the best puppy for you.   
All our puppies come started on their vaccines and wormings.  They do not leave our home for this as we like to limit exposure to possible canine diseases that they might pick up at an animal hospital.   We give the vaccines here at home.  I have extensive experience with canine health care, and worked in various veterinary hospitals for 9 years.  Mark is currently working in the animal pharmaceutical field.  We do NOT dock tails on our Prague Ratters.  Some pups coming from Europe have docked tails.  We think the tails are very cute and see no management reason to cut the tail.  If you wish to have your pups tail docked, you can do it at a later time under general anesthesia through your veterinarian.  We DO cut dewclaws, so your puppy will not have dewclaws to worry about. 
Please don't hesitate to call us to learn more about Palomar Prague Ratters!

Isabella and Bonifac are both wonderful dogs.  They are very similar in body type and both have very strong ears.  They carry themselves proudly as though they know they are aristocrats!  Both are smart, learn quickly and are very affectionate.  Isabella's mother is a Brown and Tan (Brownie from David Rufer's website), Isabella has a brown recessive gene!  She produced 2 black and tan pups and one brown and tan!  She is an excellent mother and the pups are adorable!

TESTIMONIES:
I can't begin to express how grateful I am that Kristin was recommended to me as a breeder. Since our first contact a little over a month ago, we have communicated at least once a week over the phone & through E mail.
I have received both photos & video of the dame (Izzy) & the sire (Milos) & what a pair these two make!!
We all know how hard it can be to wait for a furry little bundle of joy...that's why it's been so nice to have a breeder like Kristin who understands that eagerness & goes out of her way to ease this anxious waiting period.
Not only did Kristin provide me with information about the Prague Ratter breed history, temperament, grooming & health issues but has also recommended books, tips & tricks to aid in training our pup.  It's very clear that Kristin takes pride in what she does & works hard to ensure the proper placement of her pups.  I couldn't be any more pleased with this experience & we haven't even gotten to the best part yet! The puppies!

Crystal and Mike came to visit the pups at 2 weeks... we welcome visits by our new puppy families!    Seeing these pups in person is even better than the pictures says Crystal!  An unforgettable experience... the first of many for a new Prague Ratter owner.  They are happily anticipating taking one of these beauties home in a few weeks... you gotta love it!
