Welcome to KORPI Kennels, a dedicated breeding establishment located in the picturesque Hunter Valley of New South Wales, Australia. Specializing in the Finnish Lapphund breed, KORPI Kennels is committed to producing healthy, well-tempered puppies that embody the remarkable qualities of this rare breed. Finnish Lapphunds are known for their intelligence, trainability, and gentle nature, making them ideal companions for families and active individuals alike. The name “Korpi,” meaning “Wilderness” in Finnish, reflects the breed’s rich heritage, originally bred by the Sami people to herd reindeer in the northern regions of Finland.
At KORPI Kennels, all dogs are raised in a loving home environment, ensuring they are well-socialized and accustomed to family life. The kennel is operated by Elle McKay, who has a deep passion for the Finnish Lapphund breed. With years of experience in showing and training dogs for various roles, including companionship, sports, and therapy, Elle is dedicated to bringing out the best in each individual dog. The breeding program is selective, with only two breeding bitches at a time, allowing for a focused approach to producing high-quality puppies. KORPI Kennels also offers one month of free pet insurance for every puppy purchased, ensuring peace of mind for new pet owners.
As a member of the Lapphund Club of NSW and the Lapphund Club of Victoria, KORPI Kennels is well-connected within the dog breeding community. The kennel has produced several generations of Finnish Lapphunds, with a strong emphasis on temperament, soundness, and quality. Whether you are looking for a loyal family pet, an active show dog, or a skilled working companion, KORPI Kennels is here to help you find the perfect Finnish Lapphund to join your family.
