I am Shady Hollow's proprietor, my name is Sally Heber. I work with the American Ferret Association (AFA), I am an AFA Senior licensed Judge. As a reputable ferret breeder, Shady Hollow's goal is to continue to learn about the ferret and to apply that knowledge to breed for the best health, temperament, longevity, intelligence and conformation. I have visited England and hand selected breeder ferrets to incorporate them in to the Shady Hollow genetic lines. The intent is to bring in a diversity of genetics that display the traits that are consistent with the breeding goals that I set for Shady Hollow. The English ferrets are very lively and they happily pass this along to their kits. The American lines are very selectively bred, showing distinctive features such as the large eyes, the full, broad, deep head conformation along with a very sturdy bone frame.

I continually do ADV (Aleutians Disease Virus) testing on my ferrets to remain an ADV negative facility. If you are not familiar with Aleutians Disease Virus in ferrets, you need to be. Please visit the American Ferret Association, Inc. website for more information.

My ferrets come with extensive lineage information.
