ALL ABOUT SHIPMATE NEWFOUNDLANDS
Shipmate Newfoundlands is a CKC registered breeding kennel located North of Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, Canada on a small acreage. Here our Newfs have the privilege and joy of being able to work and play while living as part of our family.
Our family is comprised of ourselves, Damien & Sherry, our son, Vincent, and our team of beloved Newfoundlands. By living and interacting daily side by side with us, we ensure that our dogs and puppies are well socialized. We always welcome visitors to our acreage as this provides an excellent opportunity for our Newfoundlands to interact with people outside of our family as well as enabling our clients to view our dogs, meet with us and see first hand how our Newfoundlands are raised in a happy, healthy, clean and interactive environment.
We have been active since our CKC registration in 2016, and have been showing our dogs in conformation since 2014.
All of our dogs and puppies are sold CKC registered. There is no exception to this. We take pride in the work we do here, ensuring the soundness of all sires and dams in our breeding program. Regular health exams and clearances are routinely performed to confirm both parents are fit for breeding.
Along with being CKC registered, any puppy we place comes backed with a health guarantee, dewormed, their first set of vaccinations, microchipped and fully vet checked. We also include a puppy package to help transition them into their new homes and families.
About Us
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
It all started in 2014 when Prairiehome's Miss Mira came along. After experiencing the joy of owning a Newfoundland, we decided to make them our passion. In 2016, we officially became CKC registered as Shipmate Newfoundlands, a breeding kennel located in Alberta, Canada.
WHERE WE'RE HEADED
It didn't take long to add Arthur, Salem & Murdock to our team. All were selectively chosen for their pedigrees and exhibition of the hallmark traits that truly define a Newfoundland : Sweetness of temperament, intelligence and size.
OUR GOAL
We strive to preserve the Newfoundland for generations to come. Our breeding program is built upon the foundations of ensuring health clearances/ screenings are satisfactory, that the pedigrees of the dogs bred are in line with where we wish to be in the future and that our favourite hallmark, their sweetness of temperament, is always maintained. In keeping with these goals, we aim to ensure that families will enjoy the company of their Shipmates for years to come.
