Cirnef Lakelands

Alysha T.

Breeder of Lakeland Terriers

Norfolk, VA

Meet the breeder

I'm Alysha T., the breeder behind Cirnef Lakelands located in Norfolk, VA. Our Lakelands are raised in our family home, never in a kennel environment. Our adult dogs compete in AKC Conformation and Junior Showmanship competitions and are active, loyal members of our family. As such, they are well accustomed to our children, adult dogs, and cats. They receive age appropriate vaccines and vet checkups as they mature until they are ready to head to your home. We are proud members of the AKC Breeder of Merit program, as well as our breed club, the United States Lakeland Terrier Club (USLTC). We do not currently screen for any genetic health issues, as Lakeland Terriers are such a healthy breed that both the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) and the Canine Health Information Center (CHIC) do not currently require routine health screening for any genetic health issues. If and when that ever changes, we will happily comply with canine professionals and breed experts opinions’. Our dogs’ health and happiness is our top priority. If you have any questions or are interested in one of our Lakeland puppies, let us know and we will send you our Puppy Application Questionnaire!

Q. & A. with Alysha

What makes your program special?
No other Lakeland Terrier breeder has this much exposure to young, experienced children from birth. It’s so important to acclimate terriers to children when they are young. We have the ability to do that and do it well.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Alysha

Alysha has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Price

Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and between $2,500 - $3,000 final payment, before taxes & fees.

"We put a lot into raising our puppies to be healthy, well rounded family and performance dog companions. Note: $3000 is our base price. $3500 is only required if we must transport the puppy to you. Our deposits are due after your puppy application has been approved and is factored into the total cost of the puppy, (i.e. once the $500 deposit is paid, only the remaining $2500 is due upon pickup) any travel costs will be laid out at the time of deposit."

Contract & health guarantee

Alysha may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Alysha offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Alysha directly.
