Annamarie has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
Annamarie partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 8 weeks old.
“We take great care in placing each puppy with the right family. Puppies are matched once they’re old enough for us to evaluate their temperaments and personalities, typically between the ages of 8-9 weeks. ”

“Our puppies are examined by a licensed veterinarian, regularly dewormed, first vaccinations and prepaid lifetime microchip, prepaid AKC registration, early puppy training, & socialization. We require a deposit to hold your puppy of choice, which will be counted towards your total cost. This deposit is not refundable, but is transferable to a future litter.”
Annamarie may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Annamarie offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Annamarie directly.

Pupdate from Nimbus (Winter litter) “He is my little white shadow! He had some sort of tummy bug last week but is doing great otherwise! We just moved to Great Falls and we take him swimming in the river every day. He was a little escape artist right when we moved in... And I found him standing in the river.” 💙💙💙💙
Samoyed
About Tess
Tess is light on her feet and always has a smile on. She loves to be active and when she gets excited she’ll twirl and jump around in front to show you. She is not big on the vocals but when she does talk, she has a surprisingly deep bark for such a tiny thing. She tends to hover around 40 lbs, although if you go by the size of her paws, you’d guess much larger! She is very type-y and we love what she brings to our program. She is just 4 points shy of her AKC championship, currently holds a BCAT in FastCat, and is a lovely girl all-around.
Excellent health testing

About Bagheera
Bagheera is our bombproof nanny-dog. True to the Samoyed nature, she lives up to her genes by preferring to be in the midst of everyone’s activities throughout the day, letting nothing phase her and tolerating every form of affection. She loves to be active, possessing a keen prey drive and often proudly presenting her hunting trophies from our rural property. She dabbles in conformation and is hoping to attain her first FASTcat title this year.

About Sam
Sam may be the sweetest Sammie you’ll ever meet. He is gentle and kind, playful and silly, and loves nothing more in life than being surrounded and loved on by children. He is registered white but has grown into a faint biscuit and white, and he carries biscuit as well. He is an AKC champion and is now working on his Grand.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience! From start to finish, the whole process was an absolute joy and stress-free. Annamarie is incredibly passionate and totally on top of it. Bringing a new puppy home can be overwhelming, but she is such an expert resource and truly makes you feel calm and completely taken care of every step of the way. We are so incredibly grateful to Annamarie for the amazing care and love she puts into her pups. Also a huge thank you to Caycee as well for bringing our sweet boy, Monty, safely home to us. As someone who does a lot of research I promise you, you don’t have to look any further. I love the relationship we’ve made with Annamarie and love the community we’re now a part of.

My family and I are very impressed with Annamarie and her puppy’s. My family and I couldn’t have stumbled upon a better person to allow us to enjoy her puppy. The process was simple and every time I had a question for Annamarie she always respond within a very reasonable amount of time. Updates were often and detailed. Picking the dog up was very hassle free and on time. My family couldn’t be happier. OV is our family’s puppy now and at 8 weeks I am very impressed on the work Annamarie has put into OV. Walking on the leash for an 8week puppy has been so easy and amazing. OV came home to my family and right away expressed himself when he needs to go outside to go potty. Oh the puppy breath is amazing and so was Annamarie from start to even today asking me how the puppy is doing. Big thanks to Annamarie and here family for raise such beautiful sweet amazing loving puppies. Thanks the Schwartz family for giving us our forever Sammy

My family found the right breeder in Annamarie and Morning Star Samoyeds. From the beginning, she has been communicative and generous with both her time and expertise. I want to express my sincerest gratitude for the experience, and moreover, the remarkable little creature we've added to the family. Myrtle (Lime Green Girl) has been settling in remarkably quickly. There was some nervousness at our first meeting, but by the first night she was already sleeping belly-up and coming to our calls. The most incredible thing so far has been the nights. She settles down quickly and walks into her crate on her own if we don't push her -- she's strong-willed in the best way. She speaks her feelings and alerts me when she needs to go outside. The first 2 nights involved a potty break around 2:30am then right back to bed for both of us. She's also socializing incredibly well! She gets along with every person she's met (and 1 fully vaccinated dog friend). As I reflect on these first couple days, I'm reminded that none of this is by accident. Myrtle (and our family) have had the benefit of Annamarie's program. With her emphasis on healthy genetics and family-friendly temperament coupled with an early introduction to training, handling, and socialization, Annamarie gave us every advantage a breeder could provide. I highly recommend working with Morning Star Samoyeds. You won't regret it.

It’s been an amazing experience working with Annamarie and Morning Star Samoyeds. It was fun getting updates on the pups as they got ready to come home and getting Freja home with Wags n’ Wiggles was great too. Freyja has been an absolute doll, a doll who sometimes feels she needs to bite my ankles, but a doll nonetheless. Her temperament has been fantastic and she loves meeting new people and other dogs and even a couple cats. She has been very confident adjusting to her new life living downtown with the noise and traffic; we even watched some skateboarders the other day. She is very playful and loves chomping on some stuffed animal toys. This has been a great experience through and through, a big thank you to Annamarie and her Morning Star Samoyeds.

Morning Star Samoyeds was my first experience working with a breeder and I am so glad they were! Annamarie was a joy to work with and always kept me informed of how things were going. She was diligent in responding, making sure I felt comfortable with the process, and answered all my questions without delay or judgement. She asked all the right questions and I was truly impressed with her thoroughness in preventative care before my pup even came home. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Samoyed with great temperament and beautiful coats!
