From August 4th 2005 our new home is situated at Svinevoll, quite near Tønsberg, in the southern part of Norway. We have brought a house with a big garden, and we are happy with the place. Jenny-Marie and Astrid-Merete has started the obedience and agility training in Tønsberg dog club.
We lived earlier at Hesseng outside Kirkenes, quite near the Russian border. The dogs handled the climate in the most northern part of Norway very well. The trips outside is short when it is below 20. The dogs follow us nearly everywhere, both summer and winter. They are so happy going in the mountains for berries in summer and going on snowmobile at winter time. They likes very well running in the snow.
In our breeding we are seeking for good temperament and good health. All our breeding dogs are of course typical for the breed. All of the dogs are checked in the knees, eyes. The Mudi is also check in hips and elbows. And of course they are found healthy.
All the dogs and puppies lives in the house with us, as family members.
All our breeding dogs have participated in dog shows. Our bitches are not breed without at least two red ribbons. I prefer even better results. The dogs that lives at home, does agility or obedience or blood tracks.
The name of the kennel is the original form of my middle name, Linnerud.
