Why SA ?          

Why would someone buy a puppy that was born and bred in South Africa? The answer to this is complex and sound in nature. South Africa is situated at the very southern-most tip of Africa and is a country of tremendous potential and exquisite beauty, as well as possessing a population of people of diverse and varied talents.

The climate of the Highveld, where we have our breeding kennel is one of the best in the world for healthy, outdoor living. This climate allows for a breeding program which exposes our animals to fresh air and sunshine, in breeding structures that are comfortable and hygienic.

The kennel buildings are cheerful and aesthetically attractive and provide a “happy” and “comfortable” vibe for the animals.We have a maternity section which is equipped with infra-red lights to provide warmth for mums and pups.

Dr Nic employs a staff who have been well trained and are dedicated to good performance of their duties. A maintenance/cleaning staff consisting of two people, Mrs. Julia Sefako and Mr. Fanie Mkhize is responsible for the daily refuse removal and cleanliness of the kennel buildings. Both these people have had training in animal handling and grooming. Dr Nic is constantly available for any “emergency”, and is only a phone call away. His day begins and ends with an inspection of all his animals.                               South Africa has stringent health regulations which have to be adhered to and diseases such as rabies,distemper, canine hepatitis, para-influenza, bordatella, corona, leptospirosis are strictly controlled by a comprehensive vaccination program.  Health officials and Veterinarians are constantly alert to the possibility of a threat to the animal population, and strict control in the field of animal movement and animal health is adhered to. We pride ourselves on the fact that certain diseases prevalent in other parts of Africa have been eradicated in South Africa. Animals exported from S.A have to be examined thoroughly by a Veterinarian and documents of vaccination and general health are also required before export is allowed. These documents are examined by Veterinarians on arrival of the pups at their destination, and are an indication of the well being and health of the animals. In S.A there are many breeders of pups whose blood-lines would greatly enhance the quality of blood-lines in other parts of the world. All our animals are fitted with an Identipet micro-chip which provides the owner with the security of knowing that if the animal is lost or stolen, recovery is possible by being able to scan the animal. This microchip is inserted by Dr Nic on the animal's neck between the shoulder blades. This safety device is a great advantage to owners of the dog. The number on the micro-chip can be registered for a fee at the American Kennel Club Animal Recovery Unit in Raleigh, North Carolina. Contact Number: 919 854 0139.
