The seed for Autumn Wings Kennel was planted in 2009 when my wife and I purchased our first Small Munsterlander. We hoped for nothing more than a functional hunting dog, but Pine Hollow’s Brigette Breeze was far more than that. We didn’t recognize that we’d been blessed with a once in a lifetime dog until our NAVHDA and SMCNA friends noticed her abilities. When not hunting everything from woodcock to geese to squirrels, Breeze found time to become a Versatile Champion (VC). With VC Max vom Schutzenknapp she produced a litter that qualified for the second ever NAVDHA Utility Breeder’s Award given to a Small Munsterlander. That litter produced Bold Breeze Artemis (Artee). Artee has followed in her parents’ pawprints, successfully hunting everything we ask and earning her own Versatile Champion title in her free time.

Brian Werner, owner of Autumn Wings Kennel, is a fanatical hunter. VC Bold Breeze Artemis is his canine alter-ego, having the same intense desire to hunt everything with a season. They have harvested game from several different states, including- grouse, woodcock, pheasant, quail, ducks, geese and wild Chukar. Plus a few rabbits and raccoon along the way.

Brian’s wife, Jill Colloton Werner, is a veterinarian and owner of our sister kennel, Bold Breeze Small Munsterlanders. With the help of VC Pine Hollow’s Brigette Breeze she has learned to hunt, although Breeze wishes her shooting skills would improve. |
