"The
Samoyed is a versatile working dog;
it does not work on its head."
EJ Samoyeds are loved and cherished by Erica Flahaut and Family. We reside in Paxton IL on 3 beautiful acres in the country. We are a Samoyed Club Of America member and a member of the Kankakee River Valley Kennel Club. Our dogs actually live in our home as family members with us on a day to day basis; therefore, the number of dogs we can have at any given time is very limited.
We believe in education - not just for the potential Samoyed owner - but education for us! It is important that we remain current with the latest advances in veterinary technology, and training methods. We strive to maintain a fresh attitude and a fresh "eye" with regard to our dogs and our breeding program. The investment for continuing education courses is well worth the time and cost. It affords unique opportunity to network with other dog breeders (of All Breeds) in an environment conducive to sharing information and "pearls of wisdom".
Breeding With A Vision - The Samoyed we strive to produce
is a vision we hold in our mind that meets the Breed's Standard (AKC
Samoyed Standard). As breeders and keepers of this breed, we absolutely
will not compromise this vision. Our dogs are clearly and unmistakably
identified as Samoyeds even to those who are barely familiar with our breed.
We are not frequent breeders therefore when we produce a litter, it is with the
intention of keeping our next generation. Our litters have been planned out
years before the puppies are produced. We consider the health and temperament of
the prospective sire and dam. They must exemplify correctness in type as well as
temperament and movement. The excitement of watching all the careful planning
come to life makes every single litter a magical one!
All potential owners are extensively screened before a placement consideration
will be made. While it is nice to have our puppies seen at the shows, a show
home is not as much a priority as a FOREVER home. If you want one of our
puppies, be prepared to answer a lot of questions & we will do the same. We
encourage inquiries from discriminating families of integrity who are prepared
to take on all the long-term, lifetime responsibilities associated in caring for
their Samoyed puppy purchased from us. We carry a waiting list on our
puppies. If their is a litter that interests you then we advise you
to be placed on a waiting list.
Built on a firm foundation to stand the test of time. "Expect The Best when Quality Matters!"
We will always faithfully strive to breed, raise and train Samoyeds that meet the high standards that have been passed down to us by those who came before.
Please do your research if you think you want a Samoyed. There are many people out there "breeding" these dogs and doing a disservice to the breed and the dog-owning public. Finding the RIGHT breeder takes time, and is worth the effort. Most breeders have a waiting list for their puppies. It's worth the wait to get just the right puppy for your home that will last a long time. Ask questions, and get references! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you may have.
