Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Breeders can have a HUGE impact on their puppies development. At this age they are sponges who are ready and eager to learn. We use this time to teach them essential skills for life, to give both them, and you, the very best start together. Lauren developed 'The Super Puppy Program', incorporating principles from…

Genetic Test
Canine Multifocal Retinopathy (CMR) is a genetic disorder causing local detachment of the retina in young dogs. It does not always cause impaired vision or blindness but can in severe cases. There are three types of CMR affecting different breeds. A DNA test is available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
Genetic Test
This is a disease affecting the spinal cord of older dogs, initially causing wobbliness and eventually hindlimb paralysis. It can affect a wide range of breeds. There is now a DNA test that can indicated if a breeding dog is carrying this disease.
Physical Test
These breeders have had x-rays taken on their breeding dogs to assess the quality of their elbow joints. Dogs with very low ‘elbow scores’ are less likely to develop elbow problems in the future and less likely to pass hereditary elbow problems on to their puppies.
Genetic Test
GSD II, or Pompe Disease, is a rare glycogen storage disease that can affect Finnish Lapphunds. It can cause poor growth, muscle weakness, vomiting and heart problems. There is a DNA test available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
Genetic Test
Hyperuricosuria (HUU) is a genetic disease that causes a build-up of uric acid in the urine, predisposing to painful bladder and kidney stones. It can occur in a range of breeds. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this disease.
Genetic Test
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) in dogs is a type of genetic eye disease causing deterioration of the retina and eventually, blindness. There are a variety of sub-types of PRA, which can occur in various breeds. There are various DNA tests available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

We have dedicated ourselves to the breeds continuation in Australia, importing 9 Lappies from Finland and frozen semen from many top…
Why we got involved in breeding
In three words, because I love it. I always knew that I would breed dogs. As I child, I was dog obsessed, with a particular fondness for Spitz breeds. My first dog of my own was a German Spitz, followed by a Pomeranian. I had planned to have different Spitz breeds as pets throughout my life, and then when I was…
