Meet The Pack

Someone once said that Lappies are like Pringles - once you've had one you just can't stop - they weren't wrong.

Mylo was about 9 months when I started considering a second Lapphund however when I made my wish public knowledge I was firmly put in my place and told to wait to Mylo was at least 2 before getting a second Lapphund so I resigned myself to enjoying the next year with Mylo whilst at the same time looking forward to the opportunity of getting a second.

A few weeks later, and totally out of the blue I got an email, ironically from one of those advising me to wait, asking if I might be interested in having one of her puppies - after thinking about it for a nano-second I wrote back with a "yes please" - a year to the day after Mylo entered out lives Kiva (TabanyaRuu Hyppia) came to join us.

Kiva joining us also saw a change in career as when she was just over 6 months we were asked by the owner of Zack, one of her litter mates, if we could look after him when they went on holiday; Dogs to Stay was born.  There have been days where we have had as many as 5 Lappies in the house, and over the past 38 years we have had over 50 different Lapphunds stay with us - so yes, Lapphunds are a little like Pringles, you really can't stop at 1.

Kiva has been mated three times and we were fortunate that we decided to keep a bitch, Sassi, from her second litter with a view to possibly breeding from her in the future - however  due to health reasons this was not to be (more).
