Litter Pedigree 

Denver is a lovely boy from Norway, now part of the family of Jo Cornah-Wade and Nick Cornah.  He has only been lightly shown but has proved that he is capable of some really hard work gaining his WTD and WPD and is nearly there with his WWPD.  He comes from Turid Teigen's Inupiat's Kennel in Norway and has an exceptional pedigree which includes many Storm Kloud's favourites.  He possesses some lovely features including strong bone and a beautiful tail set, so rare in the breed today.  He also has the sweetest temperament and is so laid back.  Denver provides us with the potential to breed some beautiful, strong, healthy puppies with a superb pedigree from true working lines.   We would like to thank Jo & Nick for allowing us to use their precious boy.

Sika has excelled in the show ring, so far gaining 2 CCs and 1 RCC, and in harness where she has achieved her WWPD and her WTD and has two legs towards her WWPDX.   We are delighted with her progress in both arenas.  Sika is also a very sweet girl who loves her cuddles.  She too has a pedigree full to the brim with some of the most outstanding UK, US and Canadian Malamutes and we hope that combining her pedigree with that of Denver will enhance the breed's best qualities.  With Sika coming from the last litter bred by Walt & Kath Howarth at Hawkam, this breeding offers us the chance to build on their hard work and continue their lines in a way that we hope they can be proud of.

          Having been the proud owners of Malamutes for over 10 years, although we will never stop learning, we feel we have the experience and passion that will help us make the right choices for our dogs and the future of our beloved breed.  We also have the guidance and support of some very good friends and experienced breeders.  We will strive to provide that same level of help and support to anyone who becomes part of the Kachemak family in future.

Health, soundness, temperament and ability to perform the function for which they were originally bred, are of paramount importance to us.

Our Breeding Ethics

We are only breeding because we wish to have a puppy for ourselves and we feel that the planned litter offers what we consider to be the best combination of pedigrees and qualities.

We will expect anyone who wishes to join our puppy list to visit us, along with all of their family who live at home.  We may also ask to visit you at home.

As long standing members of the Alaskan Malamute Club of the UK, we will strictly adhere to the AMCUK Code of Ethics.  We are also members of the Kennel Club Assured Breeders Scheme.

All puppies bred will be registered with the UK Kennel Club.  Their registrations will be endorsed with "not eligible for the issue of an export pedigree" and "progeny not eligible for registration" which means that they may not be bred from or exported.  Endorsements on puppies will not be lifted except under very exceptional circumstances.  

Puppies will be reared in our home in a warm, clean and suitable whelping environment and will not leave our home for their new homes until they are at least 8 weeks old.  During that 8 weeks we will endeavor to socialise the puppies as much as possible, including with all of our own dogs, and acclimatise them to as many new situations as possible in order to prepare them for their new lives with their new families.

All potential new owners will be very carefully vetted to satisfy us that they can provide the most suitable homes for our puppies.  We may ask for references.

All puppies will leave for their new homes with the following:
 ~A contract, signed by both parties, which describes the conditions of the sale of the puppy, and any requirements that we will ask for in relation to endorsements, spaying / neutering, rehoming etc.
~ Registration paperwork
~ 5 generation pedigree
~ DVD and photographs recording the puppies first few weeks
~ Information regarding feeding, training and exercise
~ Puppy food (BARF) to last the first week
~Suitable toys for puppy
~ Microchip

We will be on hand to give help and support at any time during the entire lifetime of the dog and will be very keen to stay in close contact with new owners throughout.

We will strongly encourage all new owners to become members of the AMCUK.

We will expect all of our puppies to be hip scored and eye tested.

We will expect that puppies sold purely as pets are spayed or neutered at the earliest opportunity as recommended by the owners vet.

We will insist that if the owners can no longer care for the dog at whatever stage of it's life, it will be returned to us,  in order that we may either care for it for the rest of it's life, or attempt to rehome it into a suitable new home.
