We will all miss Harvey Noble, who passed away recently.  Harvey is a long time Chinook

To Absent Friends!


Welcome to Rain Mountain Chinooks.  We are located in Washington State, just outside of Seattle.  I hope you will enjoy visiting this website and that you will learn a bit in the process.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to give a shout.  I've tried to organize information into the following sections.  You may also want to follow the links at the bottom of each page to through the website in a sequential fashion.

Why? will tell you how I came to have Chinooks
What's a Chinook? will tell you more about what a Chinook is and what it isn't.
The "Rain Mountain Times"  will bring you up to date on what's new on the homefront.
The Rain Mountain Breeding Program will tell you more than you probably ever wanted to know about how we make the breeding decisions we do and what we feel is important in rebuilding this great breed of American dog.  If you are interested in getting a Rain Mountain pup, you'll find information here.
Work & Play tells you about some of our activities.
Meet the Pack introduces you to members of the family both now and in years past.
Friends & Family is a photo gallery of Chinooks and their families.
For More Information is a list of links to more information about Chinooks, Chinook breeders, and all things dog.  When the revision to this website is complete, a site map will be located here as well.

Caution, this website is under constant revision and rarely has it ever been finished or every link functional.  If I didn't have the responsibility of a job, a house (also known as the 40 year old money pit), multiple dogs, and a family that needed my attention, the website would be perfect and always current.  If there is any information mentioned that you can't seem to find, give a shout and I can probably find it for you.  I am also guilty of being spoiled by a broadband connection so if you are using dial-up, you may find many of the photos very slow to load.

Available for Placement:

No litters are planned right now.  Applications will be taken when a confirmed litter is on the way.  If you would like to send one in now, that's great but please keep in touch with me and check in every four to six months.

Joyce Maley of Hurricane Chinooks in South Carolina has litters planned for winter/spring.  Of contact Walt Madeen, Information Coordinator for the Chinook Owners Association.
