Someone is 2! 🥳
Happy birthday to our own Novalilly! Over the past two years she has proven to be a resilient, strong, carefree girl that loves snuggles and playing with every animal she encounters!
Lilly is also now old enough to have all of her health testing. We will know by the end of the year if this little girl will be a good candidate for our program so let’s all wish her the happiest of birthdays!! ❤️
Happy Halloween from Kyber Kennels!
This year Nyssaa is going as a unicorn and R2 as a shark and are super excited to make new friends and, of course, get a dog safe treat or two.
Remember to keep your pets safe this holiday and keep the sweets out of reach. 🎃👻💀🐾
Hey all!
Checking in!!
Today was a great day to have some watermelon! Watermelon is one of those treats that they can’t get enough of. Fruit is another part of a dogs diet that is a nice bonus for the benefits they can provide them but knowing what is safe and what isn’t is absolutely essential.
Here is a short list of fruits that are considered dog safe (as always, in moderation of course!):
Blueberries (the best! Studies are finding they have cancer fighting properties!!)
Strawberries
Kiwi
Apples
Banana
Raspberries (cautiously, raspberries cannot be combined with calcium so this is a lesser eaten fruit)
Cantaloupe
Outside of this list, here are fruits you should avoid giving your dog:
Grapes (can be toxic even in small amounts, can cause anything from stomach upset to kidney failure)
Avocado (toxic, small parts of what is edible is okay but not in large portions; peel and pit are the most toxic)
Tomatoes (overly ripe is considered safest, any green causes severe stomach upset)
It has been a week since go homes started and updates have been phenomenal! Our puppy parents have been flourishing and showing themselves to be amazing puppy owners and partners to their young additions! We couldn’t be more excited at everyone’s progress throughout the week meeting their challengers however small with enthusiasm and even reaching out to ask us questions if they weren’t sure what to do.
In that week we have also made a big decision, that being to keep one of our own! Introducing R2-D2, once named Hoth, he has settled in enthusiastically and is working hard to become one with the pack! We have our ups and downs as well with potty training and impulse control but one thing that R2 definitely does well is stick by us all the time. We don’t have many moments in our home where we don’t know where he is and his natural heel is amazing for his age!
We will be sharing photos of all of our pups on go home day soon (we have had a minor hiccup in the tech department) but another huge congratulations to all of our Kyber Kennels families! 🐾❤️
Day 60
Day 60 and we are definitely prepared for these nuggets to arrive!
Just a couple days left until we get to meet them, be sure to stick around for the big announcement!!
Malla is showing!
Day 40
Malla is definitely showing! Little mama is living it up getting supplements, multiple feedings per day, fresh cooked chicken and so much more. She deserves all of it, being the very best at growing those little ones inside and continuing to be an amazing girl that wants all the snuggles in the world.
Waitlist is still open but slots are limited so we urge anyone interested to apply! ❤️🐾
Malla is expecting!
So excited to announce this…we are expecting!
Projected delivery window is end of April into early May and while we don’t have an official count the vet viewed at least 6-7 puppies.
We are currently taking applications and our waitlist is open!
Also, Malla did fantastic on the hour drive to the vet and was the center of so much of attention at the vet, such a great girl she is! Super excited for all to come! ❤️🐾
Malla x chewie snuggles
These two have been the tightest crew since they’ve come home to us and with the potential litter on the way they seem to have gotten closer. It’s moments like these that we absolutely love, snuggling up for bed and enjoying the warmth these guys give us physically and emotionally. ❤️🐾
Happy new year from everyone here at Kyber Kennels! Here’s to 2022 and all that comes with it! 🐶🐾❤️
Moving into the winter and our oldest goldens turning two, this video follows up a commentary on ethical breeding but provides some simple questions to help steer you in the direction of adding a puppy or dog to your household and limiting contributions to the overpopulation issue. Ethical breeding is the surefire way to cut back on backyard breeding and crowded shelters, but how? It starts with us, the prospective dog owners, asking the right questions! #adoptorshopresponsibly
Day 2 - training motivations
Day 2 - learning their motivations. Lilly is only 8 weeks old as of yesterday, puppies at this age are still gaining their senses so to speak and are thrown into a totally new environment than what they’ve known up until now. She has only had experience with her food, treats and other foods are exciting as is engaging with new dogs like ours. For this reason, the next few days will cover introducing her to schedules and me familiarizing myself with her to optimize our training efforts. Each of our dogs have done the same thing, Nyssaa is attention motivated as is Solo, while Chewie is almost entirely food motivated; Malla is our wild card and works for both which made training her super easy and difficult at the same time. As of now Lilly does come to her name and is responsive to kissing noises.
