We are willing to share our knowledge with anyone who asks. Many of our beautiful dogs’ photos are found today in magazines, books and on the AKC website. Other breeders have asked us to mentor them. The AKC has told us we are a model Kennel. Being serious breeders, our goal is producing top quality puppies with the best temperaments. Simply talking to our dogs is as soothing to them as it is to us. We are very concerned with each one of our dogs’ needs. The dam’s temperament can affect the puppies – good mothers produce good puppies. Stressed animals can experience fertility problems. Providing lots of hugs and kisses are important, but thinking exercises are also needed. Our dogs are allowed to run free and play with each other and us in a huge fenced-in area, enjoying the snow and sunshine. It also means maintaining their mental health. This means regular veterinary care, screening for genetic problems, regular exercise, grooming and good nutrition. Both the sire and dam need constant conditioning to produce the best offspring. Good puppies start long before their parents are bred. Breeding dogs involves art, science and total devotion. To reach this goal we have spent a lifetime learning about dog behavior, training, breeding, showing, and health care. Starting in the 1960’s we have acquired more extensive knowledge over the years than most dog trainers, breeders and enthusiasts. Having a strong connection with each and every dog and puppy we have is a great rewarding experience. They always come first and are given the best of everything. We strive to be the best and only the best will do for our dogs. At Icewind we completely relate to animals. A Lifetime of Love and Devotion To our Pets.
