Samoyed
Our Samoyeds have distinctive polar bear features and very gentle temperaments. Over the years we selectively hand-picked the best traits from world-leading kennels with multiple international champion titles. Our bloodlines carry Vanderbilt (Canada), Wild Snow Kingdom (Ukraine), Moscow Blizzard (Russia), Dragviken (Poland), Belolakay (Russia), Margarita's Kingdom (Russia), Yin Se Xing Kong (Korea), Panda Sharm (Russia), Polar Mist (USA), Alkhabor Almira (Russia), My Majesty (Russia), De Villaodin (Spain) and Dorian Spring (Russia). We strive for breed preservation by maintaining the breed's integrity and safeguarding the Samoyed breed so that its existence will continue into the future.
Shiba Inu
Our Shiba Inu breeding program is our new big passion! We are extremely proud to hand-pick our adults from the top breeding kennels that follow Nihonken Hozonkai (NIPPO) standards for this wonderful breed. We determined to breed within the breed's country of origin standards for physical traits and temperament. Our adults have proven genetically healthy bloodlines with NIPPO, FCI, RKF, BKU and UKU titles.
