Our home
We are located in a smaller city on the Slovakian-Hungarian border. It is a really nice small city and have everything which we need to socialize our dogs properly. A city park, forest, field, schools, a castle... a lot of children and a mini zoo. This makes this city an ideal place to teach my dogs. However sadly we have a lot of stray dogs and mutts all over the city. This makes our job a little bit more harder, because we need to give extra care for desinfection and cleaning when we have puppies. Who knows that stray dogs what problems can have. Better safe than sorry.
We are located on the border of the city, even the birds rarely fly here. This makes this place ideal for keeping dogs. Not too much nervous neighbours when the regular singing lessons starts for the dogs. We have a big open field here, ideal for walking off-leash too. Safe routes, with not too much idiot driver. Mostly calm and peaceful.

Our house has a ground floor and an upper floor. The ground floor is totally reconstructed for the kennel. A room for the dogs, for the puppies and a garage. The room for the dogs are used for sleeping mostly. They do not spend much time there. Only when it is too warm outside or too cold, and they sleep there all night. It is fully equipd with things for the dogs, kitchen, cleaning supplies, washing machine. It contains 2 smaller cage, one is used for socializing the puppies (when we have litter) with the adult dogs. Other one is used for the grooming table, grooming supplies and to store the dry dog food.

The puppies room are separeted from the adults room. So they get a safe and clean place without too much stress in the first weeks of life. It is also fully stocked, everything we need to a rise a litter, keep them clean and healthy and socialize them the best way we can. It is not the biggest room, but it is totally enough to rise them perfectly and well-socialized.

The Garden
Our garden is middle sized and mostly contains fruit trees and berry bushes. However it is ideal for the dogs the enjoy the green grass, play, steal apple from the tree and chase birds away.
We have a big pool, made just for the dogs. They love it and enjoy it. It's water is clean, fresh and suitable for dogs. Well-maintained and healthy. We do not use chemicals only filters. Water is changed every 2 week, mostly because of the dirt they bring inside on their legs.
When we have Spring/Summer/Autumn puppies we teach them to swim there at 8 weeks old. So later they won't be afraid of the water and will enjoy swimming in it.

One place of the garden is totally pre-made for the puppies and litters. It has a huge pavilion. Fenced, clean and ideal for puppies to learn, socialize and play all day long. It has soft ground which make perfect place to run and play all day. Puppies hips and joints are not developed, and hard ground would make serious joints problems later in life. With this soft rubber ground we can avoid this and we see the results as our puppies have perfect hips/elbow/patella scores.
