There’s nothing better than receiving updates like these!

Our sweet Karen, now Lekke, has settled beautifully into her new home! After sleeping through her long journey, she enjoyed a peaceful first night in her crate, woke up ready to tackle the day, and has taken everything in stride!

She’s already making herself right at home with her new four-legged family members, Bryn, Leif, and the cats! We can’t thank Jan enough for welcoming this special little girl into her pack and giving her such a wonderful home! 💞

Confident, adaptable, and completely unfazed by her new surroundings. We couldn’t be happier to see this little girl thriving in her new home! 🐾🩷

This is what makes all the hard work of raising puppies so rewarding!

A little behind-the-scenes look at our dog truck! 🐾🚐

From functionality and organization to safety and cleanliness, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to make life on the road easier.

Whether we’re heading to a dog show or travelling with our four-legged crew, the comfort, safety, and well-being of our precious cargo will always be our top priorities. ❤️

A little home away from home for the Riverhund crew!

Thriving? Debatable. Functioning at full speed? Absolutely. 🤣☕️🐾

Not every successful weekend at a dog show is measured in ribbons and big wins. ❤️🐾

This weekend was a wonderful reminder of just how much I love this sport and everything that comes with it.

We spent the weekend introducing some of our youngest up-and-coming puppies to the show environment, building confidence, practising in the ring, and simply letting them take it all in. Watching these young dogs settle in, enjoy themselves, and embrace new experiences is every bit as rewarding to me as the wins.

There was plenty of laughter, time spent with good friends, and some really great conversations with fellow breeders, exhibitors, and mentors. Talking dogs, exchanging ideas, picking each other’s brains, and learning from one another is such a valuable part of this sport. No matter how many years you’ve been involved, there’s always something new to learn and another perspective worth hearing.

After all these years, I still genuinely love being at dog shows. The atmosphere, the friendships, the dogs, the opportunity to continue learning, and the excitement of seeing what the future holds for our breeding program.

The ribbons are wonderful, but weekends like this remind me that there is so much more to celebrate.

And I couldn’t be more excited about this next generation. ❤️

🐾 More Than Just a Bath & Blow Dry!

Our weekly grooming routine at Riverhund is about so much more than keeping our dogs looking their best.

It’s an opportunity for us to have a dedicated, hands-on check-in with each and every dog. From assessing coat and skin health to monitoring weight, muscle condition, and overall physical well-being, these weekly sessions allow us to notice even the smallest changes that might otherwise go undetected.

But just as importantly, it’s quality one-on-one time. ❤️

Our dogs have grown up learning that the grooming table isn’t something to dread. It’s a place filled with attention, affection, positive experiences, and plenty of love.

For us, responsible breeding and dog ownership go far beyond health testing and providing excellent care. It’s about knowing each of our dogs as individuals, understanding what’s normal for them, and making the time to give them the attention they deserve.

Because good husbandry isn’t just about how our dogs look. It’s about how they feel, both physically and emotionally. 🐾❤️

A little more behind the scenes at Riverhund Kennels!

🐾 Behind the Scenes at Riverhund Kennels!

The first eight weeks of a puppy’s life are about so much more than watching them grow. They’re about building the foundation for the dog they will become.

At Riverhund, we put a tremendous amount of thought, time, and dedication into how our puppies are raised. From carefully planned living spaces to gradual expansions as they grow, every stage of their development has a purpose.

One of our biggest priorities is teaching puppies good habits from the very beginning. By providing designated areas for sleeping, playing, and toileting, we encourage natural cleanliness and help establish routines that make the transition to their new homes, and eventually house training, that much easier.

Where and how your puppy is raised matters. Those early experiences help shape their confidence, habits, independence, and ability to adapt to the world around them.

Creating and maintaining these safe, clean, and thoughtfully designed spaces requires a significant investment of time, money, and daily effort. It’s not just about having the right setup, but about the constant cleaning, monitoring, adjustments, and hands-on care that go into raising each litter. It’s an investment we believe is essential to giving our puppies the best possible start.

We love sharing these behind-the-scenes glimpses, not only to show the work that goes into our program, but also to help educate future puppy owners on what to look for when choosing a breeder.

Because raising puppies isn’t just about getting them to eight weeks old. It’s about preparing them for the lifetime that comes after. ❤️

Some days, the life I’ve worked so hard to build can feel overwhelming.

There are moments of exhaustion, self-doubt, and questioning whether I’m doing enough. It’s easy to get caught up in the endless responsibilities and forget to appreciate everything that’s right in front of me.

But then I look around at these dogs, the memories we’ve made, the relationships we’ve built, and all the little moments that make this life so special.

And I’m reminded why I started. ❤️

It isn’t always easy, and it certainly isn’t always glamorous. But it’s a life I’ve poured my heart into, and one I’d choose over and over again.

Even on the hard days. Especially on the hard days. 🐾

Finally getting around to sharing some of our win photos and candids from the Toller National Specialty! 🏆❤️

A huge thank you to Zachary Heath for his incredible work and for capturing our dogs in so many special moments throughout the weekend.

While the win photos are wonderful keepsakes, the candids are just as important to me, if not more so. They allow me to step back and truly see a dog for what they are, without the perfect stack or positioning. As a breeder, these photos are invaluable in evaluating our dogs as they grow and mature, recognizing their strengths, following their development, and identifying areas where we can continue to improve in future generations.

These photos are so much more than memories. They’re an important part of our journey as breeders, and I’m so grateful to have these moments captured! ❤️🐾
