After studying everything we could find about the breed Cairn Terrier, we went to a dog show to see the breed, and there was no doubt, it was the right
breed, a decision we never regretted.
In 1998 we got our first Cairn Petrea, and then came Karla and Rasmine. Karla is still going strong 14 year old!
Breeding , training and shows has become our great common interest.
Jörgen takes care of especially the part on the show. He stands for the grooming of our dogs and puppies and show some of the dogs.
I'm home. Therefore, it is me who takes care of everything related to our dogs and puppies everyday.
I stand for our dog training and exercise which is necessary before the shows and something new, I also started to show some of the dogs.
Besides training here at home, I am also training with our dogs. Ofelia, Windy and Ceasar have all been on the training ground. Windy has participated in
agility and now we train at the silver team at the Danish Kennel Club.
We currently have 5 Cairn in the home, our lovely male "Manne" Cairnstone's Watch That Man, we were lucky enough to be allowed to buy from Pillan,
Kennel Cairnstone’s in Sweden in April 2008. Besides Manne we have Ofelia and her daughter Windy, after "Barney", our second male Ceasar, after "Victor"
and last newcomer little Donna a daughter of "Manne" ... all 4 dogs are our own breeding..
Our dogs are a natural part of our family, and is probably what you call a little spoiled. They follow us in our daily lives both inside and out.
And when we relax in the evening they find immediately the best chair in the living room.
To have puppies is every time something really special for us and we spend hours on socialization of the puppies.
We ensure that our puppies are ready to meet their new families by providing them through growing up has been in many hands, experiencing the sounds
at home, have been out driving in the car and know that they have seen the "big" outside world.
We live in the countryside in a renovated farmhouse with plenty of room for us and our Cairns.
The garden is a delightful place for our dogs and puppies, and of course it is fenced. It is necessary when one has such a curious breed which Cairns are :-)
Best regards
