My family lives in Northern Finland (250 km drive south from
the Arctic Circle) in little village named Välikylä
(Jääli). Välikylä is part of municipality named
Kiiminki and is situated near by Oulu. My family consist of me and my
common-law husband Ilkka and our four dogs; Candy, Luca and Rodi.
My love for the dogs was born many years ago. My first own race was
Rottweiler, which I have had four; JK3 Pikiturkit Emilia, Fin Mva JK3
Finnrott’s Hero, Thunderweiler Aleksandra and Rottwood Ives. My
first Golden Retriever came to my family when I had the third
Rottweiler. Dogs which live with us nowadays can be foud from page
"Dogs"
We take an interest in many things with our dogs. We train to our dogs
the basic obedience and train them also for the retrievers qualifying
test. The most prevalent hobby anyway is the dogshows.
I have also participated the society activities in dog clubs and I am
obedience trainer guide, official in different trials (obedience and
service dog) and official in the dog show rings. I have been the
trainer guide for several years in obedience and service dog hobbies.
My first litter was Rottweiler litter in 1999 and rest litters can be
found from the "litters" -page.
All my litters grow with the family seeing everyday life. I also
familiarize puppies to touching in every way, other dogs in family,
children, game animals, show posture…etc
My goal in breeding is to breed health Goldens which have the golden
character, are easy to train and have also pleasing appearance.
