Health
DNA testing for known hereditary issues is an integral part of breeding in our kennel. All puppies I sell have a full DNA profile supplied to new owners, as well as being vaccinated and wormed. Our dogs are also hip and elbow scored and fed a diet of premium Royal Canin.

Based in a farmhouse in Gippsland VIC with chickens, sheep in the paddock and lots of activity going on, we have many designated areas set up for our puppies and dogs.

About the Breeder
A little about us
I’m Jen, an experienced Dogs VIC registered Breeder and President of two kennel clubs. I actively show in VIC and NSW and also assist Orivet Genetic Pet Care in collecting DNA.
