To the future owners of our dogs:
Dear future families of our puppies – sometimes a little older, sometimes already young adults, and sometimes even grown dogs – I would like to share a few reflections with you 😊
We are a small kennel. We don’t have hundreds of dogs – every puppy born/imported here receives as much love, attention and energy as we can give. Our goal is never a quick sale, but to find the right, responsible and loving homes.
In recent months, I have noticed a significant increase in inquiries – unfortunately, many of them are immature or quite unreasonable. So please allow me to clarify a few important points:
🔹 Every dog is different – there is no guarantee that a puppy/ older dog in new situation like new home will immediately be fine staying alone at home or behaving like “clockwork.” That is your role as new owners – to teach, guide and support your dog through this process.
🔹 Why some puppies stay longer – this does not mean there is anything “wrong.” Sometimes someone changes their mind, sometimes we cannot agree on conditions, sometimes I would like to keep a puppy but reason or lack of time won’t allow it. Paradoxically, the puppy that stays longer usually receives more socialization and one-on-one training from me.
🔹 Dogs we love but don’t keep for breeding – some dogs are too calm, very gentle, sensitive, or simply did not develop as we hoped for future breeding. This is not a fault. On the contrary – it is a strength. These dogs deserve homes where they can live as cherished companions, and that is a wonderful quality, not a disadvantage.
🔹 Documents and SKK – since May 2025, SKK no longer sends pedigrees automatically. They must be ordered separately, paid for, and often take time to arrive. This process is entirely outside of my control and has nothing to do with honesty or dishonesty.
🔹 Visits to our kennel – please don’t expect us to present “all the dogs” like in a show. It is often impossible and sometimes unsafe. Every visit is our time and conversation, often lasting hours, but please understand that with dogs and a young child, I cannot always have the house spotless or a cake baked 🙂. Sometimes I even need to separate dogs into different rooms or kennels to avoid conflicts or injuries. Respecting these rules is very important for everyone’s safety and comfort.
🔹 Photos and privacy – you are welcome to take photos of the dogs or puppies, but please ask first. It’s a matter of respect. Just as you wouldn’t take pictures of other people’s children at school or daycare without permission, the same courtesy applies here.
In summary – if you would like a dog from us, you must understand that we set the conditions. Our priority is always the well-being of our dogs and ensuring they go to the best possible hands. We will never place a dog with someone who makes us feel uncomfortable or who does not respect the rules of our home and kennel.
Thank you for your understanding, your openness, and for wanting to be part of our dog family.
We are incredibly lucky that our dog people are truly exceptional, wonderful individuals who often come into our lives – and the lives of our dogs – almost by chance, and then stay for many years. I may not always manage to ask how your dogs are doing, sometimes I miss a call, take a long time to reply, or disappear into private matters, but every dog that has left our home will always remain in our hearts. And each one is always welcome to come back to us if life circumstances ever require it and if we are in a position to take them in at that time
With warm regards,
Joanna
