Meet the breeder

I'm Trish M., the breeder behind Koukla Samoyeds located in Chesnee, SC. I have been working with Samoyeds since 1977. My dogs are proven champions in the ring and in the hearts of their forever families. I breed healthy, beautiful puppies. I take my job seriously, knowing that my puppies will become someone's beloved pet. Each puppy is considered a member of my family, and I ensure they are socialized, healthy, and prepared to excel in their forever homes. My dogs are bred for those specifics, and I take pride in my breeding program.

Q. & A. with Trish

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My love for Samoyeds inspired me to share this amazing breed with the world in a responsible way. My goal is to not only produce beautiful puppies, but to help promote responsible breeding in order to ensure that the Samoyed will continue to thrive for generations to come.
  • What makes your program special?

    I am a professional handler of Samoyeds. I do not breed my dogs unless they are fully healthy and genetically tested. I am dedicated to always having responsible policies when it comes to breeding, socializing, and training my pups. I know the health and status of every dog I have bred and am proud of the temperament and conformation of my puppies. I can provide extensive knowledge and guidance for any family looking to bring home one of these wonderful dogs. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
