Kulta, or “Cool-ta” as he has been referred to, is my first Finnish Lapphund, and the reason for my obsession with the breed. Mr Smooth, Mr Ladies-man, in reality he is just my big-baby away from the eyes of the girls.

Louis is my gorgeous French boy! Much planned and hoped for, he is truly an international treasure, born in France, raised in the USA, of a British sire and Danish dam, with some of the loveliest Finnish breeding behind him! He arrived in Australia in late 2007.

Alaska is our stunning new Finnish puppy, jointly owned with Vanessa Brotto of Articmal Kennels, and Pam Francis of Magpielane Kennels. From exceptional lines, and living up to their promise, he arrived from Finland in June 2007. He lives with and is shown by Vanessa, but is much loved by all three of us.

Mikka was the big, bad and bold puppy from my first litter. There was something about him from very early on that I just couldn't look past, looking full of masculine strength from such a young age, and with that gorgeous head. As he grew he quickly turned into my naughtiest puppy who strutted around like he owned the place. He lives with, is loved by, and shown by Sharon Donaldson of Ausled Kennels in Victoria.

Edge was the favourite of our boys, born from the joint litter between Articmal and Armahani Kennels from our girl Kya. He was known affectionately as Hot Chocolate before he was named by his joint owners Mat and Tanya Brady of Yobhonden Kennels, who he lives with and is shown by in Queensland.

Emmi is my dream come true! A simply gorgeous example of a female Finnish Lapphund (and one cheeky girl!), I am still pinching myself that she is really mine. She arrived in Australia from Finland in early February 2006 and is the foundation bitch for Armahani Kennels. She continues to have a hugely successful show career.

Lahti, from my first litter, out of my gorgeous girl Emmi and handsome boy Kulta, was the pup who captured my heart right from the beginning. A very pretty girl, with a cheeky nature, and such attitude, she lives with the Field family but will hopefully join us in the show ring on special occasions and will come back to Armahani for a litter when grown.

Scribble, known as Chestnut while a baby, is our gorgeous, sweet and VERY naughty girl, born from the joint litter between Articmal and Armahani Kennels from our girl Kya. She lives with and is shown by her joint owners Amanda & Ben Helps of Cuebiyar Kennels in NSW.

Tanssija, which is the Finnish translation of the name Dancer by which she was known while her at Armahani, was one of the gorgeous girls out of my first litter. Looking so much like her mum, as the pups grew she quickly caught the eye of Kit Brillinger of Calaban Kennels in the USA. We hope that in a generation or two a descendent of Tanssija will return to Australia.

Our Keeshond Schatje is the grey sheep of the family, and our complete clown. The naughtiest (and smartest) puppy I have ever encountered, I don’t think any of us knew what had hit us! As an adult, Schatje is still super smart, and as mad as a hatter! His sheer joy at life has us laughing every day. And he has single pawedly managed to turn our family into complete “dog people”.
