Hello and welcome to Solid Heart Kennels! I who own this kennel is Sofie Zanders I am working student residing in Stockholm. I have been working with dogs since I was ten years old. When I turned ten I got the chance to work with my neighbours golden retriever puppy, and it was such a rewarding experience. I still walk that old girl daily. Sheila will alwayse have a special place in my heart. After that practically every dog (and dogowner) in the neighbourhood had to put up with me. I trained obediance, agility and took long strolls in the woods. During this time I learned so much about puppy developement, the dogs "language" and ethology became my favorit school subject. When I turned 14, I came in contact with a doggy day care center in Sundbyberg, Stockholm, and there I was stuck for many years. And except for when I had to spend time in school I spent all of my time at the day care center. Now I was like a sponge over all the dog books I could get my hands on. When I turned 18, and only had one year to go in high school, I started thinking seriously about what breed was the perfect breed for me. After alot of studying I finally decided on the Pomeranian. The first of January 2005, my beautiful girl Vienna finally came home. And the from there, the rest i history. Our time with the pom may have begun with Vienna, but our breeding didn't. We got the opportunity to buy two wonderful brood bitches, one in the fall of 2005, the other in the summer of 2006. They had both proven themselves to be excellent mothers in the past, and they haven't dissappoint me either. We hope to partly build our brood on the excellent puppies they have given us. We are aiming to breed 2-4 litters a year, and of course we need to satisfy our own needs first and formost, but we are alwayse on the lookout for suitable puppy buyers for our wonderful little poms, and also suitable co-owners for our most excellent puppies. So please dont hesitate to contact us if you have an interest in a puppy from us. Thank you so much for visiting our webpage, and please write if you are interested in a pom from us, or just want to talk about poms. Best regards, Sofie Zanders and family at Solid Heart Kennel |
