Welcome to the homepage of Deluxe Dalmatians & Hounds. We hope
you enjoy your visit and find helpful information about our chosen breeds:
Dalmatians, Beagles and American Foxhounds.
We became involved in the sport of purebred dogs and specifically dog shows in 1992.
Ron and Julie with Lindsay Ann and her grandson, Lightning, in May 2007 at the Canine Cotillion ~ a benefit for
St. Hubert's shelter in New Jersey.
We breed very occasionally and have puppies on a limited
basis to approved homes. Also, we sometimes have a retired show champion looking for a new family to
love and be spoiled by.

Ch Shaw's Deluxe Call to Glory "Lindsay Ann" - 15"
April 29, 1997 ~ February 14, 2012
It is with the deepest sadness that we write to tell you of the loss of our wonderful Lindsay
Ann Lux, Ch Shaw's Deluxe Call To Glory. Lindsay passed away on Valentine’s Day and in so
many ways took our hearts with her. Lindsay Ann was and is "the first Beagle of Deluxe" and we will
be eternally grateful for the joy, love and happiness that she brought into our lives for nearly 15
years. Our thanks to Peggy and John Shaw who shared her with us. Ron and I will never forget the day
we went to the Shaw's in Illinois to bring Lindsay Ann home, what a great day that was-and the first
of so many, many cherished memories with "Miss Wiggles La Tour".
Lindsay is survived by her three champion children, Uno, Valerie and George, eight
grandchildren, seven of them champions and one a grand champion and one champion great-grandchild (so far).
While nearly 15 years is a long life for a beagle, it is not nearly long enough for us and
we miss Lindsay so very much. While each loss of one of our dear dogs is painful, Ron said that Lindsay
was the hardest of all our dogs to lose for him and for me, Lindsay is the hardest to write about as well
because words just can't do her justice. Lindsay Ann was quite simply our hearts and we are so fortunate
to have had the pleasure of her company.
I’ve attached a just few photos from Lindsay's full and, we hope, happy life. We pray that
she knows how much she was and always will be loved.
Fondly,
Julie, Ron, Uno, Valerie Ann, George and all the Deluxe Hounds
