5 month old Nico and 2 year old Carter advocating the importance of optical exams in our breed! Carter is got his OFA certification tonight and Nico is got a pre-check clearance for juvenile eye diseases !

Whether you are a breeder or just have a pet let’s do our part and get those eye exams done! I learned this year how incredibly important yearly rechecks are not only for data on health in our breed but also because if something is wrong you can be ahead of it and intervene as soon as possible!!!

Had to use our favorite dog treats during the appointment! Look at these well behaved young boys🥰

"Successful people are not gifted; they just work hard, then succeed on purpose." —G.K. Nielson

Was an absolute pleasure getting the opportunity to get to know this family in my boarding and training program. I’m proud they followed through with the homework and came to so many visits and worked with us while we had Reggie. They did everything it took to make sure they were prepared for their dog to come home into an environment where they could provide consistency and clear expectations.

These words they left for my program… mean everything ♥️

Sharing an ad for a client looking to rehome their bite risk German Shepherd! There is no rehoming fee and you can contact them directly! Knallhart will offer a free complimentary training transition lesson to her new family!

Bailey is a 4 year old German Shephard rescue who was adopted when she was 4 months old. Her family has made the difficult decision to rehome her. She has never shown aggression in her home with her companions but has been aggressive to strangers on or near their property. She was let outside unattended one day which resulted in the bite of a neighbor who was jogging in front of their home.
Many young children are in the neighborhood, and the family cannot risk her biting another person. She has been loved and well cared for over the past 3 ½ years. She was boarded for an 8-week “boot camp” at Knallhart Kennels in January/February of 2024 and is very well trained. She will sit, wait, heel, and her recall is excellent. She has lived with another dog the entire time and has never been aggressive to him. She is reactive to other dogs while on walks or in the car but is leash trained and recovers quickly.
She would be the perfect companion for someone without children who have a fenced yard or live in the country.
There is no rehoming fee. If interested please contact: Larry Newman at [email protected] or call/text 563 676-0668

Sunday Funday at the Amana Colonies Dog Show Cluster 🖤 Awards going out to two of my bred-by youngsters “Brenda” and “Carter” 📣

Everyone’s favorite bouncy girl in all her puppy coat glory, Knallhart’s I’ve Come Too Far To Hit The Brakes “BRENDA” pulls off a WINNERS BITCH and BEST OF OPPOSITE today for 2 more points towards her Championship 🤩🖤 (Simone x Apollo)

And big boy Ch Oceano Knallhart’s What About Tomorrow “Carter” pulls off a Select Dog !!! Carter will be 2 years old end of next month and almost has his Grand Championship finished 🌟 (Sofia x Flash)

Both these kids are growing up so nicely and I just love more than anything showing them and enjoying their incredible personalities 🖤 I can’t help but smile ear to ear at how they are growing and learning and equally enjoy hanging out with me (even with as loud and obnoxious as I am 😂)

Thank you to everyone who came out today to clap for us and cheer us on! Was so cool having a group of people who all attended the show just to support us and the fancy! All the extra hands to help with crates and passing off kiddos doesn’t go unnoticed. We appreciate the love soooo much!!! 💕 Congrats to Rita and Jammer going best of breed Friday and today, was well deserved he is an absolutely lovely boy!!!!

Another puppy has left the nest and another amazing review came shortly after 🌟

“I found Knallhart Kennels on Newfoundland breeders of distinction from the AKC . I contacted Chelsey and she responded very quickly and we had a great conversation and I knew I wanted to get a puppy from her !

She is extremely thorough, professional and has strong attention to detail . She on top of that is fun to talk to and very willing to spend time answering questions . Part of the puppy buying process for us included a thread with all the future puppy owners that continued for many weeks containing pictures of the puppies , articles , teaching regarding feeding with charts and a group zoom that taught all of us as a group preparation for bringing a Newfoundland home and care at home .
I cannot imagine a better experience! Our puppy is amazing, sweet and happy . He is also beautiful.”

Thank you Murray family 💜💜💜
I highly recommend Chelsey and Knallhart Kennels .”

So many happy families! Makes all this hard work worth it 🖤🖤🖤 Another five star review !

“We have been wanting a Newfoundland for our family for years. Finding a breeder was always what held us back. I recently stumbled across Knallhart and it was a perfect match. Chelsey was amazing from the beginning, never putting pressure on us and always available to answer our questions. The transport from lowa to CT was handled by Jenny and again, a great experience! I know we will want to add another Newfie to our family in the future and Knallhart will definitely be our go to. Chelsey has kept in contact and has been helpful with questions and has provided training videos. I could go on and on!”

Knallhart’s Midwest Majesty “Mira” CGC TKN Therapy Dog

Feeling incredibly proud seeing this young lady mature. Jenny Lovetinsky and Mira are headed back into the ring this fall to hopefully finish up her championship, and snag some rally titles! Mira also has completed her certified therapy dog test at Kirkwood and is just impressing us more and more everyday with her infectious personality and intelligence.

Mira is exactly what I was aiming to produce with this breeding , I look at her at feel so proud of my program and the opportunities I’ve been given to build such a beautiful foundation.

Watch for this team and cheer them on!!! 🌟
