We are a small show/hobby kennel in scenic Northwest New Jersey, breeding to the AKC standard of the Alaskan Malamute. I am a member of the Alaskan Malamute Club of America (AMCA) and Empire Alaskan Malamute Association (a NY / NJ Area AMCA Affiliate Club).

I enjoy showing in Obedience and Agility as well as Conformation. Alaskan Malamutes are not a traditional breed that spectators will see often working in obedience or agility. I enjoy participating in these events with the breed I love. I grew up with my parents raising and showing Golden Retrievers and German Shepherd Dogs. My parents are still very active with their working GSD’s. I got my first Alaskan Malamute in 1998. I have been and continue to be mentored by several long time Alaskan Malamute breeders and all breed trainers.

My Malamutes have attained several obedience and agility titles as well as earning their AKC breed championships... all of them are family companions too. One of my dogs also starred in a New York State Public Service Announcement for Winter Driving Safety which aired Winter 2006-2007. Please visit their individual pages (from the "Our Dogs" page) for their current achievements and pedigrees.

Thank you for your interest. And please feel free to contact me.
