About the Club
Information and activities
Kellyhoff’s is a dedicated kennel and canine enthusiast group with a rich history spanning over three decades. Established in 1990, the organization initially focused on the Lhasa Apso breed before expanding its passion to include the Shiba Inu in 2004. Since that time, the Shiba has become a central part of their lives, serving not only as a focus for their breeding efforts but, more importantly, as cherished family members and daily companions.
Core Mission and Philosophy
The core mission of Kellyhoff’s is rooted in the deep emotional bond between humans and their dogs. While the kennel has produced a limited number of Shiba litters over the years, their primary objective is not mass production, but rather the well-being and integration of these dogs into a loving home environment. Every puppy produced is treated with significant importance, reflecting a philosophy that prioritizes the quality of life and the individual personality of each dog over quantity.
Activities and Breed Focus
The organization specializes in the Shiba Inu breed, maintaining a small, intimate pack. Currently, the household includes three female Shibas: Nova (8 years old), Nika (5 years old), and the youngest member, Dewi (18 months old). Beyond their own home, the group is actively involved in the broader canine community through co-ownership arrangements, which allows them to share their passion for the hobby with others and maintain a network of like-minded enthusiasts.
Operational Standards
Kellyhoff’s maintains a professional digital presence to communicate with the public and potential enthusiasts. Their commitment to transparency and user experience is reflected in their website operations, which utilize standard digital protocols to ensure security and functionality for all visitors. By balancing their long-standing history in the dog world with a modern, family-oriented approach, Kellyhoff’s continues to foster a supportive environment for the Shiba Inu breed.
