About Us

We proudly welcome you to our small select kennel which is located in a rural area of New Zealand in the Northern Waikato, about one and a half hours drive from Auckland airport.

Our Whippets are reared in a family environment, with rarely more than one litter per year. Even with this limited breeding, we proudly invite you to view our homebred stars, who excel at everything a Whippet should be, competing and winning in both conformation and racing. We are also very proud of our outstanding young handler, Erika Watson, and invite you to meet her here on our site and watch for this promising Junior Handler in the ring.

When introducing new blood into our successful lines we consider health, beauty and athletic ability with sound temperaments to be of paramount importance.

We are proud of our whippets both here and overseas. With our partner in Canada, Samantha Martel of Lauralbriar Whippets, we also are now the co-owners of a very promising young male in Canada, Lauralbriar's Perfect Alibi (Reese).

We invite you to visit with us, view our beginnings and winners from the past as well as present, and maybe catch a glimpse of our rising future stars too!
