I'm Chris L., the breeder behind Little Bear Tamaskans located in Kansas City, MO. Located in the Kansas City Metro area. We’ve been breeding dogs for the last five years.

Q. & A. with Chris
Why did you start breeding?
Really enjoyed the dogs we had and wanted to give our kids the experience of a litter of puppies. Fell in love with the process and seeing the little pups grow up and join new families.What makes your program special?
Our puppies are raise in our home with our kids and other animals. Our puppies are very well socialized before they leave our home and join yours! Our pups are gentle and love to snuggle.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black gray agouti and red gray agouti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent dogs
All breeds
Tamaskan
Siberian Husky
Frejya, mom
Tamaskan
About Frejya
Freyja is a great dog. She is not aggressive, rather her wolfiness comes through in her suspicion of new people. When someone new comes to our house, Frejya will sit in her kennel with the door open and just watch. You know you’ve been accepted when you come over and Frejya comes out of her kennel. Frejya has been through extensive health testing—this is her second litter of puppies. She may have one more before she retires.
Kody, dad
Siberian Husky
About Kody
Kody is a great dog. He is friendly, but not too annoying. The Tamaskan breed is rare enough, that it is possible to apply to have a breed that makes up the Tamaskan breed as an outcross sire. Kody has had extensive eye, hip, elbow and cardiac testing done to be approved as an outcross.
