Welcome to Apricity Kennel! We are a small breeding program dedicated to the preservation and progression of the Hokkaido breed. Located in the state of Ohio, USA, we strive to produce healthy, well-conformed, and even-tempered Hokkaido that anyone would be proud to own. I am the current vice president and proud member of the Hokkaido Association of North America (the North American parent club of the Hokkaido Ken), as well as their webmaster. My family trains and shows our dogs in conformation, scentwork, trick dog, rally, and agility. Our main focus is producing Hokkaido that meet the breed standard as defined by the Hokkaido Ken Hozonkai (the premiere Japanese parent club & preservation society), are competitive in the show and performance rings, and are cherished and devoted family companions. We are a not-for-profit kennel; so any money that may come in is put directly back into our dogs and breed education/preservation efforts.
Our dogs receive all health testing required by the national breed club, and we offer a full warranty against any hereditary health problems. It is very important to us that all our puppies are healthy, happy, and well cared for. Therefore, all potential puppy buyers will be screened thoroughly. Potential buyers must have researched the Hokkaido, and must be able to discuss proper training methods for the breed before a puppy is placed in their household. All pet evaluated puppies are sold on a spay/neuter contract, and all show prospect puppies are sold to serious show and/or performance homes.
If you are serious about purchasing a Hokkaido from Apricity Kennel, please take the time to read about the breed, browse though our links page, and fill out a new puppy application to be added to our wait list. We are one of three Hokkaido kennels in the United States, and litters are available around once a year. If you have any questions about our kennel or the Hokkaido breed, feel free to contact us and we will respond as soon as possible.
