Adrianne (Adri) is the creative and strategic force at Black Moon Bassets. Her background in showing poultry and waterfowl gave her a strong foundation in genetics, structure, and the careful shaping of type over generations. Today, she combines that knowledge with a passion for vision and design. Adri oversees the kennel’s long-term breeding program while also guiding its social media presence, branding, and overall direction. Known as the ‘genetic guru,’ she has a sharp eye for pedigrees and pairings, but she is equally dedicated to telling the Black Moon story in a way that reflects both professionalism and heart. Adri’s blend of detail-driven planning and big-picture creativity ensures that the kennel continues to grow with purpose and presence.

✨ Together at Black Moon Bassets, Adri and Krystie form a true balance of vision and execution, planning and presentation, structure and showmanship. Adri’s expertise in genetics and design keeps the kennel’s foundation strong and its brand evolving, while Krystie’s handling skills and ring presence showcase that work at the highest level. Together, they share not only a passion for basset hounds, but also a dedication to preserving the breed’s history, type, and spirit for generations to come. At Black Moon Bassets, it is not just about producing beautiful dogs. It is about honoring the breed through knowledge, creativity, and partnership. ✨
