My name is Sissi Sundberg and I'm the founder of this kennel. The kennel name was approved by the  FCI on the 2nd of March 2001, but I've been living with English Setters longer than that.
I got my first ES in February 1988, it was the bitch Mymlan. She made me fall in love with this incredible beautiful and intelligent breed, I have her to thank for very much, not the least for all the happiness I'm experiencing every day with all my beloved 'babies'. If I hadn't found her I would never got to know this superb breed!

I live on a farm outside Växjö (in Småland) with my 8 dogs, 2 horses, 7 cats, 2 rabbits, 1 mini pig and 9 sheep. There is a very large garden around the house where the dogs run free all day. The dogs and cats live indoors with me and the dogs even sleep in my bed, yes, all of them! Some times there can even be more than 8 dogs here since I take 'my puppies' in for boarding from time to time if the owners are away on holiday or so.
Since the ESs is the breed it is, it is quite easy having a few dogs extra some days.

My self I have an education as a puppy- and everyday-obedience instructor and experience as a veterinary assistant. I have studied a specializing course in dog sick-care and continuously educate my self thru lectures and courses.

  MY INTENTIONS AS A BREEDER ARE:

to continue the breeding of sound dogs, in temperament and in construction, using well documented and qualified lines.

* My puppies have a puppy insurance, a 3 year valid insurance for hidden faults (only valid for dogs living in Scandinavia), vaccinated, tattooed or/and micro chipped, registered in SKK (the Swedish KC) and examined by a vet with a following health certificate at delivery.
 

* I ask of my buyers that they do an x-ray of the hips and that they follow my recommendation regarding when it should be done and what food to give in order to get the best hip score.

* If you're interested in buying a pup from me and I don't know you from before I do want to meet you in person at least once before I give any promises about a pup. If you live abroad I will need recommendations about you if I don't know you from before.

* I'm very careful with giving my puppies the best homes and will therefore want to know and ask about the home you offer and the prior experience you have from dogs.
 

* When you buy a pup from me, included is a course in either puppy- or everyday-obedience according to what you feel you need the most.
 

* With the puppy you get: a bag with a small blanket which smells of mom o siblings, a DVD with info on the breed and about dogs communication, 1 kg puppy food, a folder with the dogs papers and papers on how the dog should be cared for (de-worming scheme, next vaccination and so on) +  a gift from me, a nice hand sewn collar you can use when the dog has grown a bit.
 

* You will also always be able to reach me, day or night, if you need help advice or just to ask anything. You may also almost always leave your pup/dog with me if you need a dog-sitter for the holidays or so.

* I also have a gathering every year where all the puppy buyers and also other invited ES owners are welcome. We talk about dogs, have lunch and coffee and watch the dogs play and bath in the doggy swimming pool. If there is time I'll also be able to help you with some training or grooming.

You will find more info about type, looks and history on the breed standard page.

If you are interested in the breed, want to know more about it or if you want to ask about my dogs you are very welcome to contact me.
You can reach me through the e-mail link on the 'home' page or by clicking my portrait below.

"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know difference. ~ Reinhold Niebuhr"

"There is so much which the eye can't see that affects the organs of a dog. There are also things we do see but which we maybe don't realise our selves, like how the length of the leg affects the length of the strides, how the length of the back affects how high they lift their feet, and so on.
All this affects the dogs function and the length of it's life.
So just because there are so many things we DON'T know, then why breed on those faults we actually do know about?"
Quote by a wise breeder of a totally different breed.
