We’ve always had dogs in our family, mostly German Shepherds. After our 14-year-old dog Kala died we had great difficulties in making the decision for a new dog. In December 2002, after some careful consideration, we’ve decided for our first Greater Swiss Mountain Dog – a puppy named Brina. She slowly began to write the history of our kennel.

In our family all members take care of the dogs and the breeding. We believe that the right breeding cannot be handled by a single man. Since we believe that it is important that dogs are well socialized, trained and obedient, we normally don´t have more than two dogs living in our kennel at the same time. This is the only way that each of the dogs gets enough attention. It is for this reason we are only co-owners of a few dogs (on paper they are still a little bit ours, but the attention and a warm home is provided by their real owners). Our female dogs have in their lives an average of 2-3 litters. There’s always at least a one year pause between the consecutive litters or two years or more if female had problems while whelping before. Dogs used for breeding are screened for all typical diseases of the breed.

During that time we bred some high quality puppies, some multi champions, multi europe vice champions, european junior champion and vice world champion in beauty. We have puppies only occasionally and mating combinations are always carefully selected. Distance of the right stud dog is not important. We strive for superior care and maximal socialization of puppies. All pups are sold with contract of sale. New owners obligate to check hips, elbows and shoulders to puppy and not to produce non-pedigree dogs. This is the only way to protect the breed. We wish to keep contact to all new owners. We are available to them 24 hours daily.

GOALS
The goals of breeding Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs are striving towards the following objectives:

1. Health
2. Character
3. Beauty

We are trying to reduce OCD disease to the breed and striving for an obligatory review of all typical breed diseases. We want to breed character stable, non-agressive and well-socialized puppies. We would like to approximate the ideals of the breed to the FCI Standards for Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs.
