Meet Our Amazing Breeds

At Kergebirka Kennel, we specialize in a few select breeds, each with its own unique charm and personality. We've chosen these breeds because they embody qualities we deeply admire and believe make for fantastic companions. Let's get to know them a little better, shall we?

The Loyal Labrador Retriever

First up, we have the ever-popular Labrador Retriever. Guys, these dogs are the definition of friendly and outgoing. They were originally bred as retrieving dogs for fishermen in Newfoundland, Canada, which explains their love for water and their incredible retrieving instincts. Labs are renowned for their intelligence, making them highly trainable for everything from family pets to service dogs. Their temperament is generally one of a kind – they are patient, good-natured, and incredibly eager to please. This makes them fantastic with children and other pets. If you're an active individual or family, a Lab might be your perfect match. They thrive on exercise, enjoying long walks, runs, swimming, and games of fetch. A tired Labrador is a happy Labrador, and they can be prone to weight gain if not given enough physical and mental stimulation. In terms of grooming, their dense, water-repellent coat needs regular brushing, about two to three times a week, to manage shedding and keep it healthy. They do shed, especially seasonally, so be prepared for that! Labs are incredibly adaptable and can do well in various living situations, provided their exercise needs are met. They are a breed that truly thrives on human companionship and don't do well if left alone for extended periods. Their enthusiasm for life is infectious, and they bring so much joy and love into a home. We ensure our Labradors come from lines known for excellent health and stable temperaments, as these are crucial for such an active and family-oriented breed. Their willingness to learn and their affectionate nature make them one of the most beloved breeds worldwide, and it's easy to see why when you spend any time with one. They are the ultimate family dog, always ready for an adventure or a cuddle on the couch. Their bright eyes and wagging tail are a constant source of happiness.

The Elegant German Shepherd

Next on our list is the majestic German Shepherd. These dogs are known for their intelligence, courage, and versatility. Originally bred in Germany for herding sheep, they quickly proved their worth in many other roles, including police work, search and rescue, and as loyal family protectors. German Shepherds are incredibly intelligent and trainable, often excelling in obedience and agility. Their loyalty is legendary; they form deep bonds with their families and are often very protective. This protective instinct means early socialization and consistent training are crucial to ensure they grow into well-behaved adults. They are naturally wary of strangers, which is part of their guarding nature, but with proper introduction, they can be accepting. Their exercise needs are significant; they need plenty of physical activity and mental challenges to prevent boredom and potential behavioral issues. Daily vigorous exercise, like long walks, runs, or engaging play, is a must. Puzzle toys and training sessions are great for keeping their sharp minds occupied. Grooming-wise, German Shepherds have a double coat that sheds considerably, especially during seasonal changes. Regular brushing, a few times a week, is essential to manage the shedding and keep their coat in good condition. They aren't overly high-maintenance in terms of bathing, but the brushing is key. We are committed to breeding German Shepherds that are not only physically sound but also possess the stable temperament that makes them such incredible companions and working dogs. Their regal appearance, combined with their intelligence and devotion, makes them a truly remarkable breed. They are wonderful guardians and loving family members, always ready to be by your side. Their confident presence and unwavering loyalty are qualities that truly set them apart.

The Playful Golden Retriever

And of course, we can't forget the utterly charming Golden Retriever! If you're looking for a dog with a heart of gold, you've found it. Golden Retrievers are known for their friendly, intelligent, and devoted nature. Like Labs, they were bred to retrieve waterfowl, hence their love for water and their soft mouths, which allow them to carry things gently. Their temperament is famously gentle and patient, making them exceptional family pets, especially for households with children. They are incredibly eager to please and respond wonderfully to positive reinforcement training. Goldens are also quite intelligent and can learn a wide variety of commands and tricks. They have a moderate to high energy level and need regular exercise to stay happy and healthy. Daily walks, playtime in the yard, and opportunities to swim are great ways to keep them physically and mentally stimulated. Their beautiful golden coat, while stunning, does require regular grooming. They shed moderately year-round and more heavily during shedding seasons. Brushing several times a week will help manage their coat and reduce loose hair around the house. Goldens are known for being very sociable and enjoy being part of family activities. They thrive on interaction and can become anxious if left alone for too long. Their sunny disposition and unwavering affection make them a joy to have around. At Kergebirka Kennel, we focus on breeding Golden Retrievers with excellent health and that quintessential friendly, outgoing temperament that makes them such beloved companions. They are truly a bundle of joy, always ready with a wagging tail and a happy smile. Their gentle nature and desire to be involved in everything you do make them the perfect addition to an active and loving family.

What to Expect from a Kergebirka Puppy

When you decide to bring a puppy home from Kergebirka Kennel, you're signing up for an incredible journey. We pour so much love and effort into raising our puppies, ensuring they're not just healthy but also well-adjusted and ready to become cherished members of your family. Let's talk about what you can expect.

Health and Veterinary Care

Health is our absolute top priority, guys. Every single puppy born at Kergebirka Kennel undergoes thorough veterinary checks. We work closely with reputable veterinarians to ensure our breeding dogs are healthy and free from common genetic conditions specific to their breeds. Before any puppy goes to its new home, it will have received age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming treatments. We provide all the necessary documentation, including health records and vaccination history, so you know exactly what your new pup has been through. We also microchip our puppies for their safety and your peace of mind. We stand by the health of our puppies and offer a health guarantee, giving you confidence in your new companion. Our commitment doesn't end when you pick up your puppy; we are always here to offer guidance and support regarding your puppy's health and well-being. We believe that starting life with a healthy foundation is paramount for a long and happy life together.

Socialization and Temperament

We know that a well-behaved dog starts with early socialization, and that's something we take very seriously here. From the moment they are born, our puppies are handled regularly by our family members. As they grow, they are gradually introduced to a variety of positive experiences. This includes exposure to different sounds, sights, textures, and even car rides. They interact with our other well-mannered dogs and are gently introduced to children, helping them develop confidence and a friendly disposition. Our goal is to raise puppies that are not fearful but curious and adaptable. A well-socialized puppy is more likely to grow into a confident, well-adjusted adult dog that can handle new situations with ease. This proactive approach to temperament development is key to ensuring our puppies integrate seamlessly into their new homes and family dynamics. We focus on positive reinforcement from day one, helping them understand basic manners and encouraging their natural curiosity in a safe and controlled environment. This foundational work is invaluable for their future happiness and the harmony of your household.
