IMPORTANT!! Hi everyone, it’s been brought to my attention that there is a “Bloodhound Breeder” stealing our pictures from this/our High Cotton Bloodhound page and passing them as their own. They are using our pictures to scam potential bloodhound puppy buyers. The pages I have been notified about are under Southern Trail Bloodhounds and Bloodhound Diaries. I am going to proceed in reporting these pages but PLEASE, DO YOUR RESEARCH. As legit breeders, I would always ask potential buyers to request a certain pose or picture with the puppy they were interested in for me to send, as proof that the pups were with me in my possession. We never have and never will ask for a large or full payment upfront. We have always done a very small deposit to hold your pup. Also, please only do business with breeders who are certified with AKC. You can verify this by searching the breeder on the AKC website. If you have been a victim to this scam, please let me know.

Why do I ❤️ this wrinkly face so much?! She is my bestest friend and I can’t get enough of her.

Congratulations to K-9 Luca and K-9 Ranger on successfully completing their K-9 academy and earning their certifications! 🐾🎉

We are especially proud of High Cotton Bloodhounds’ sweet Ginger, now K-9 Luca, as she becomes North Port Police Department's first-ever Bloodhound K-9. It's an incredible honor to see her begin this journey of serving and protecting her community.

Congratulations to both teams—we can't wait to follow your success. Stay safe, and make us proud, Luca! 💙🐾

🎉🎂 Happy 1st Birthday to Tiny Butt and all of Fancy's precious puppies! 🎂🎉
We can't believe it's already been a whole year since these sweet babies came into the world! Watching them grow has been such a joy, and we hope they're all being spoiled with extra treats, belly rubs, and lots of love today. ❤️🐾

Drop a photo of your birthday pup in the comments so we can see how gorgeous they've grown. 📸🐶 Kat Shepherd - Honey Bee, Jessica Lynn - Skeeter, Melissa Reed - Cletus, North Port Police Department - Luca.

Tiny Butt may not be much of a lady yet… but we’re working on it. 😅
Grace? Questionable. Manners? In progress. Gorgeous? Absolutely undeniable. 🤎

We love seeing our pups out in the community doing what they were born to do! 🐾

Thank you to North Port Police Department for sharing this great moment—another one of our superstars is already making an impact, helping build connections and educating citizens about the incredible role bloodhounds play in law enforcement and search work. Luca looks great and we cannot wait to see what she accomplishes!
