I'm Pamela N., the breeder behind Mondenkind Border Collies and Guidingstars American Eskimos located in Cincinatti, OH. Our number one priority is to raise every puppy to be as physically healthy and sound of mind as it can be, and to match it to a home where both dog and owner thrive. Temperament and health are top priority. My puppies are suitable for Sport, Show, pet and Therapy work. I'm here to support my puppy owners along their journey and build a friendship for life. When you get a puppy from us, you are part of the family!

Mondenkind Border Collies and Guidingstars American Eskimos reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for American Eskimo Dogs.

Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Dentition
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

Working with our breeders Pam and Sophia was incredible! Not only did they raise our Ursa in a loving home but she has a strong base of training and when we came for our weekend they spent it with us training us as well. We were treated like part of the family even before we met. I definitely like the comfort level and the professionalism as well. Thank you Pam and Sophia! We love you!🥰
