Meet the breeder
I'm Ashley Y., the breeder behind LakeHaus Kennels located in Kenai, AK. We strive to produce high-quality show, hunt and sports prospects and wonderful companions. We enjoy training our dogs to compete in conformation shows, NAVHDA and AKC hunt tests and dog sports. Our goal is versatility; breeding for structure, temperament, trainability, and working drive.
Q. & A. with Ashley
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding because my first 2 GSP died very young due to health issues and I really wanted to find ways to ensure this didn't happen again in the future. So, I started researching bloodlines, health testing and the other qualities it takes to have healthy and stable dogs and started my kennel.What makes your program special?
My focus is on producing quality dogs. Whether they will be shown in conformation, hunted or participating in field trials, or just a great family dog. I feel a steady "off switch" is extremely important, as well as a stable temperament and correct structure.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include liver roan, liver and white, and liver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Lorelei, mom
German Shorthaired Pointer
About Lorelei
Lorelei is our keeper from the repeat Harper x Franklin breeding, and she is a complete spitfire—tackling everything she does with boundless enthusiasm. She made an unforgettable debut in the show ring, going Winners Bitch, Best of Winners, Best of Breed, Best Puppy, and Puppy Group 2 at her very first show. During her second weekend out, she earned two Reserve Winners Bitch placements and two Winners Bitch/Best of Winners wins. Lorelei went on to finish her AKC Championship in June 2023 with multiple Best of Breed wins and is now well on her way toward her Grand Championship. Lorelei earned her Canine Good Citizen, AKC Community Canine, Trick Dog Novice and Virtual Home Manners title in a 4 week period in the fall of 2025. Looking ahead, her winter 2025/2026 goals include Beginner Novice and Novice Obedience titles, as well as working towards her Rally Advanced title. Lorelei whelped her first litter in January 2025, producing a strong, promising group of puppies who are already excelling in both the show ring and hunt testing. We have plans for her second litter in 2026.

German Shorthaired Pointer
About Derek
Derek, from our 2023 Riker x Briar litter, is an outgoing, enthusiastic, and friendly boy with a wonderful temperament that makes him a joy to both live and work with. He has a natural charisma in and out of the ring and has also been competing as a Junior’s dog in 2025 with local youth handler Emma—the two make a fantastic team. Derek hit the show ring in June 2024 and quickly made his presence known, earning 11 points—all majors—toward his AKC Championship in just two weekends. At only 7 months and 1 day old, he was awarded a Novice Owner Handler Best in Show. He completed his AKC Champion title in May 2025 and, with just a single weekend out as a Special, is already well on his way toward his Grand Championship. He is currently just a few points from his NOHS Bronze as well. In the field, Derek ran his NAVHDA Natural Ability test in August 2024, earning a 105 Prize I. An injury sidelined him from training during the late 2024/early 2025 season, pausing his hunt test and performance progress. Now fully recovered, he has had a busy fall 2025, earning his Rally Novice, AKC Community Canine, Canine Good Citizen Urban, Trick Dog Novice, and Virtual Home Manners titles in a short 4 week period. Our next goals are Beginner Novice, and Novice Obedience titles, with goals set for completion by April 2026. Looking further ahead, his summer and fall 2026 plans include the NAVHDA Gun Dog Test and his AKC Junior Hunter title.

German Shorthaired Pointer
About Maris
Maris, from our 2023 Riker x Briar litter, is an exceptionally smart, eager-to-work, and quick-learning girl. She spends much of her time as the “demo dog” in our group training classes, a role she takes on with enthusiasm and confidence. She entered the show ring in June 2024 and made an immediate impression, earning 10 points and both of her majors within her first month. At just 18 months of age, Maris finished her AKC Championship title and, with only one weekend out as a Special, is already halfway to her Grand Championship. Her field and performance work is equally impressive. At 7 months old, she earned a Prize I with a score of 107 at the Alaska-Yukon NAVHDA Natural Ability test. At 19 months, she became only the second Alaskan dog to earn a NAVHDA Gun Dog Test prize, achieving a Prize II. In August 2025, she completed her AKC Junior Hunter title with four straight qualifying runs. Maris has had a busy fall 2025, earning her Rally Novice, Canine Good Citizen Urban, Trick Dog Novice, Trick Dog Intermediate, and Virtual Home Manners titles. Maris earned her Rally Advanced title in early 2026 and is currently working towards her Companion Dog (Obedience) titles for summer 2026 and prepping for her NAVHDA Utility Test. Maris is OFA Hips: Excellent, Elbows: Normal, Heart:Normal, Eyes: Normal and CD: Clear

German Shorthaired Pointer
About Stella
Stella is from our first Harper × Franklin litter and has been a standout since the beginning. Returning to LakeHaus in early 2023 (through no fault of her own), she immediately made her presence known. After just two show weekends, Stella earned 11 points, including a Sporting Group 3 placement, and finished ranked as the number 16 GSP in the All-Breed Rankings for March 2023. By June, she had completed her AKC Championship. In 2024, Stella stepped back into the ring for a single show cluster and earned 14 points toward her Grand Champion title, reaffirming her structural correctness, balance, and effortless ring presence. Stella is intelligent, feminine, and correct — a dog with exceptional type and a stable, confident temperament. She carries forward the qualities we value most from her pedigree - biddability, elegance, and an intuitive understanding of her handler.
