VANAHEIM SWEDISH VALLHUNDS
NZKC (DogzNZ) Registered Breeder
Local Breeder
Located in the beautiful Waikato of New Zealand, we are a small boutique establishment with a passion for pedigree dogs. Together with our breeding partners at Rahkantra {based in Christchurch}, we are committed to breeding, healthy, sound, nice natured and genetically diverse Swedish Vallhunds, that become great companions for owners around New Zealand. Our Swedish Vallhunds can be found in show homes, dog sports, working homes and as therapy dogs. They are members of our family, as well as being a part of our show team, and puppies are born in our bedroom and raised in our home.
All our Vallhunds are fully health tested, clear eye certified, hip scored, DNA and genetically diversity tested.
​We are proud to be working with beautiful Imported champion and award-winning lines from Sweden, Australia, UK, Finland and the USA.
Please look around and enjoy yourself using the navigation buttons. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me via our contact page.
