                                About Hesiodos Kennel

In 1981 we got our first Hovawart. My first litter was born in 1986 and the foundation bitch in Hesiodos Kennel was LP KORAD SLCH Björnhovs Akela   “Targa”. I have competed in obedience and working classes. Furthermore I am an exterior describer Kl 1 and Kl 2 on the Hovawart breed. I am also an instructor in SBK, I have also been active in the Hovawart Club as a member of the committee and in Kungsörs BK. The Hesiodos dogs have been very active in obedience and working classes. Dogs of the kennels dogs were the obedience Hovawart of the year 90-93-94-95-96-97-98,2000,2001. The dogs also participated in Obedience SM –94. One also became the working hovawart of the year in 1996 and the kennel have several SUCH and working champions. Sweden’s only trippelchampion and obedience champion. Recently the kennel got a Swedish Tracking CH. About ten dogs are trained service dogs within the national home defence and air force. The kennel has also conquered kornings diploma and the working dogs breeder award.

Scheffelfältets Graziella Gustosa We got our first Lagotto Romagnolo year 2000 and we have already three dogs in champion class, and BIG-winners and several are on their way. My homepage is www.hesiodos.se Where you can read about the dogs of Hesiodos kennel.

Hesiodos kennel Our goal for each puppy that leaves our kennel is that they shall have the best conditions to be the family dog the Lagotto is. I want to sell my puppies to active homes. The Lagotto is an active dog that likes to be where and when things happen. Health and soundness comes first. To get a broad and objective judgement of my breeding I have some requirements on those who purchase puppies from me. These requirements are to x-ray the hips and to participate during at least one dog show. This is something I demand from all my puppy purchasers.  The reason of my demands is that I want the objective judgement of my breeding that it takes to continue to breed healthy dogs with quality. Hip dysplasia in dogs is hereditary with polygene causes. Because of the hereditary one demands that you know the hips dysplasia status on the whole breeding stock. This will minimize the risk of joint problems. Are only a couple of the puppies in the litter x-rayed the risk increases. Only a veterinary can determine whether a dog have hip dysplasia or not. The veterinary determines this after he has study the dogs x-ray. It is never enough just to look at the dog and say that “he looks healthy” or to say that “he never limps”. This is why I demand hip dysplasia x-ray of all my litters. (It is time to x-ray the dog’s hips when it is 1 year)   The dogs I use for breeding in Hesiodos Kennel are always free from hips dysplasia i.e. A or B. The exterior quality is much easier to get an entire opinion of because it is on the outside. But I still want the official opinion on the dog’s quality, which only a show judge can give.  I am a member of the Swedish Lagotto Romagnolo Club and the Swedish Kennel Club and I follow their breeding demands on health, mentality and exterior. The puppies I deliver are id-tagged, registered at The Swedish Kennel Club, vaccinated and inspected by a veterinary.   You can contact us by e-mail or by phone. All puppies are delivered id-tagged with the Swedish Kennel Clubs contract, pedigree/register certificate from the Swedish Kennel Club, certificate from the veterinary and advices on how to take care of your Lagotto.   You who purchase a puppy from our kennel are always welcome to call us whether you have questions or need advice.
