ABOUT OUR PUPPIES / OUR PHILOSOPHY
We are a family run business, that starting breeding NZKC registered White Swiss Shepherds in 2013.
Five of our dogs were imported from Europe and five were imported from Australia, selected on Temperament, Health and Beauty, with new bloodlines for New Zealand. We have invested in quality dogs from overseas to improve and set the bar high for the breed standard of White Swiss Shepherds in New Zealand.
Our puppies are registered with DogsNZ (NZKC) under our prefix PANDORRAS and up until 2017 we were the only breeder in New Zealand offering DogsNZ registered White Swiss Shepherd puppies.
​
We provide the best start for your puppy by raising it in a safe, warm and clean environment, feeding it top quality food and assuring someone is always home to look after them. This allows us to give them the amount of personal attention and care they need.
Our puppies go to their new homes when they are a minimum of eight weeks old. This is because being with their siblings for that period of time is an essential part of the learning and development of dogs.
​
As for our breeding dogs, we are committed to giving them the best life possible. Despite being called a 'kennel', our dogs do not live in kennels and are all indoor pets. Most of our breeding dogs are in co-ownership which means they all have their own families that give them the personal one on one care and attention dogs deserve.

The temperament of our puppies is one of our main priorities. When picking out breeding dogs, we look for friendly and confident, yet obedient and trainable temperaments.
We treat our dogs as family members and when looking for new homes for our puppies, we look for homes that do the same.
Although most shepherds are good watchdogs, we do not sell our puppies as guard dogs.
​
Our other big priority is health. We health test all breeding dogs before breeding and will only ever use them if they are at a standard that we are happy with. All their test results are public on their individual pages (our dogs). You can read about the general health of the breed and what each health test is for on the health page.
​
We have years of experience transporting pups safely to their new homes. Kyra often offers Puppy Transport to Auckland and sometimes other areas on the North Island. We can also help organising flight transport for you and will make sure your pup will arrive safely in an Airline approved cage.
Please contact us about the options available to get your puppy home.
