Highlights of the Year 2007

KENNEL CLEFELL'S 10 YEARS

In 2007, kennel Clefell's celebrated its 10th anniversary as a German Pinscher breeder. Little did I know of the breed and breeding when I decided to file in my kennel name back in 1997, but was as enthusiastic about the breed as I am now. Much have I learned and certainly have become much more down to earth, but have always kept my vision of the breed the same, just as my goal of going for quality and not for quantity.

Sticking to the vision has brought along some tough decisions and hard choices, but it has still been worth it. You can see a summary of my breeding work on this section of the site, a more detailed track record is available on the Litters and Show Results sections. Check also the Finnish Kennel Club's Breed Database for extensive breeder and breed specific information. A link is provided on my Links page.

Thank you all Clefell's dog owners and friends for making this possible! Each and every one of you have made this happen - let's build an even brighter future together!


To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the foundation of our kennel, we established a trophy for the Finnish Pinscher Club. The trophy will be awarded for the BOB and BOS dogs at the annual Club Specialty show.

NEW BREEDING STOCK

Fundora's Galatea


We added new material into our breeding stock from kennel Fundora's, where our Polish import Albion Bemus sired a litter for Idaco's Isabella. A promising young bitch, Fundora's Galatea, is now growing for potential future breeding in the loving hands of the Kurronen family. She is pictured her at 9 months old.

Windläufer Immer Sonnig


Another addition to our potential breeding material comes from kennel Windläufer in Finland, where Clefell's Luxury gave birth to a nice litter sired by Bosscheries Alpachino. A bitch puppy Windläufer Immer Sonnig is pictured here at 4 months and is living up to her name in the capable hands of Mirka Simola.
