I'm Ethaniel M., the breeder behind Kahukura Cardigans located in Everett, WA. I am a new breeder. I feel so honored to begin my journey in the breeding world. I breed Cardigans with a passion for workability, conformation, and temperament.
Q. & A. with Ethaniel
Why did you start breeding?
I love my dogs and want to help ensure other people can experience how wonderful they are while also growing the community of good breeding. I had a poor experience with a breeder that wasn't reputable and I don't want the same for my puppy families.
What makes your program special?
We love and care about all of our dogs, and only want the best for them. With this, we provide our dogs with health testing and utilize Puppy Culture and Avidog for enrichment. I follow the breed standard and show and title my dogs in multiple venues.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
