I'm Evyenia B., the breeder behind Cashecho Kennel located in Valparaiso, IN. My Mom and I run the kennel as a team. Our dogs are bred for health and temperament, with a focus on performance versatility and structure, all of which add up to make a great pet. I started showing dogs in 4-H, and the love has expanded to co-owning and showing American Hairless Terriers, South African Boerboels, as well as our home breed of Miniature American Shepherds. My dog, Nani, won Best Opposite of Breed at Westminster Kennel. P Club in 2021. Please visit our fb page, Cashecho Kennel, to learn more.

Cashecho Kennel was wonderful to work with and very responsive to any of our questions. Our puppy, Huxley, is a wonderful addition to our family!

Evyenia was so responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. You can tell they really cared about each puppy and they prioritized making sure they went home with the best family over making a profit.
They stayed in touch and sent me regular updates about my puppy. Good Dog made the process so easy, from the initial connection with Evyenia to arranging pick up and paying securely. I'm so glad I found Evyenia through Good Dog, and I couldn't be happier with our sweet little Tater Tot❤️❤️

Our sweet boy has officially been with us for a whole week, and has been amazing! You can tell they had been working on training, and socialization and our pup has been so eager to continue those skills with us! We are absolutely thrilled with our decision to get a dog, and could not be happier that we decided to go with the Cashecho Kennel!!
