On the blue planet, many wild animal and plant species are endangered because of man’s actions in their environment. The domesticated species (animal and plant) also sustain pressures that could bring the extinction of some animal breeds or lines and of some plant cultivars. The industrial production that is the trademark of our century, together with consumerism, have often resulted in the reduction of animal and plant genetic pools. We believe that man has the responsibility to preserve genetic diversity in order to preserve global biodiversity. This way, we are protecting our inheritance.

We believe that Siberian Huskies out of working lines reflect this perspective. They are the living legacy of the past and illustrate the link that existed between man and dog. One could say that we are preserving the inheritance of the working dogs in our kennel. These dogs allow us to protect a genetic pool; to avoid extinction of the working lines. We cannot accomplish this alone. We need help. That is why we hope that other Siberian Husky fanciers from across the world will share this vision and this goal.

In the past, dogs were used to transport humans and goods. They were later replaced by motor vehicles. This introduced changes in order to create a dog better adapted to modern life (more sedentary, able to live without the pack, calm, squarer built, etc.). All this was done despite the true nature of the Siberian Husky. The true Siberian Husky lives in a pack, he is an active, energetic dog with an efficient gait; he is fast, courageous and strong…

Compared to other sled dog kennels, our kennel is small. We have approximately 30 dogs; this number varies depending on the period of the year. We aim to raise dynamic dogs, always ready to work and happy to do it. Their built makes running and working a cinch. They are fast dogs with attitude, endurance and strength. They recover easily after work, they eat and drink well, and can perform under stress. We focus on the ability to live in a pack and to adapt to various environments. We also look for dogs that travel well. Finally, the dog must be healthy and have very sturdy legs..

In particular, we like the dogs out of the Kodiak line. They are very brave and have all the qualities that we are looking for in a working dog. They are healthy and versatile. You will notice that this line is prominent in the pedigree of many of our dogs. We raise our dogs in packs, they are penned in enclosures surrounded by an electric fence and they are fed a natural diet.
