Meet The Breeder

Started in the breed in 1998 as a teenager in Germany and brought my first Kooikerhondje girl Nelle home from The Netherlands that same year. We started training in agility and obedience and discovered our love for wilderness search and rescue and disaster and we were a certified team for years going on deployments. After moving to the USA with her in 2006, I realized that this breed is not known here at all and how little health testing breeders are committed to. By 2012, I was able to get the CHIC requirement for this breed established, took a Board seat in a Kooiker club and started importing several well bred Kooikers from the various European countries (Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Finland) and from different pedigree backgrounds. 2009 Toni joined us from Germany and 2011 Amica from Texas. The love for wilderness SAR continued and Amica certified in SAR wilderness in 2014 and we deployed through one of the mutual aid California K9 SAR teams (MBSD) for almost 10 years. Toni was a well loved therapy dog for a while visiting patients in hospice and also sired several nice litters. In the next years, we bred Amica, imported Ati from Germany (resides with a co-breeder in Seattle) and she had 2 nice litters with us. We also imported males from Finland (Finn and Luke), Casper from The Netherlands (residing with co-owner in TN), sweet Jinger from Finland (residing with friends in the SF Bay Area). We welcomed Emma for a litter in our house. Jinger had a nice litter of 8 puppies in 2021 and we are now eagerly waiting to find out if her daughter Mia is pregnant. She continues the SAR tradition and is doing well in training for human remains detection. Ali's offspring grew up to do big things including winning breed at Westminster and BIS thanks to co-breeders and their passion. In the big scheme of things we are happy that we made so many new friends with our puppy homes and introduced so many new families to this amazing breed. We thrive for breed diversity, temperament ,workability and of course health and beauty.
