Apricity Kennel Hokkaido Ken

Apricity Kennel Hokkaido Ken A former breeding program that was dedicated to the preservation and progression of the Hokkaido breed in the USA.

We are a small breeding program dedicated to the preservation and progression of the Hokkaido breed. Located in Northwest Ohio, we strive to produce healthy, well-conformed, even-tempered Hokkaido that anyone would be proud to own. I am a proud member in good standing with HANA (the North American parent club of the Hokkaido Ken), and my family trains and shows our dogs in conformation, barn hunt,

trick dog, and agility competitions. 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 offer a full warranty against any hereditary health problems. All pet evaluated puppies are sold on a spay/neuter contract, and all show prospect puppies are sold to serious show/breeding homes. 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 Ken, and must be able to discuss proper training methods for the breed before a puppy is placed in their household. If you are serious about purchasing a Hokkaido Ken from Apricity Kennel, please take the time to visit our website and 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.

4 year old spayed female Hokkaido seeking a new home (not of our breeding).

Would prefer to be an only dog, or with a tolerant male dog.

Outgoing with women. Takes some time to warm up to men (shy; not aggressive).

Send an email to [email protected] if you are serious and I can provide more information.

Litter C siblings Kiwi (left) and Tater Tot (right) were reunited at Premier! They still love each other so much which was awesome to see. Unfortunately we waited until the end of the last day there to take pictures and they were too done with our s**t at that point to want to pose for the camera ๐Ÿคฃ Thank you Katrina (Eternal Spark Photography) for trying anyway lol.

How many Hokkaido can we cram into one picture? The answer was 13! From left to right: Kibo, Joey, Buffy, Gaigan, Megaro, Minira, Waji, Kiwi, Pokku, Tater Tot, Arashi, Aiko, and Hana. It was so exciting to have this many Hokkaido in the same place at the same time. Thank you to everyone who made this possible ๐Ÿ’–

Buffy had fun at UKC Premier Nationals this year! She took BOB on Friday against a lovely lineup, including her dad and her sister, and she showed her little heart out in group ๐Ÿ’• Best part of this weekend was seeing all the Nihon Ken people come together to support one another. I look forward to seeing everyone again next year!
