I'm Gary C., the breeder behind Pacific Mist Samoyeds located in Hawaii. We are dedicated to breeding quality Samoyeds with structural soundness and correct movement. Our foundation dam is an AKC Best in Show Grand Champions who came from the renowned Polar Mist breed line. We're happy to answer any questions you may have about this great and ancient breed.
Q. & A. with Gary
Why did you start breeding?
My objective is breed preservation, especially since the Samoyed is one of the original ancient dog breeds from approximately 5,000 years ago.
What makes your program special?
I am passionate about finding proper homes of knowledgeable owners for all of my dogs and believe in educating each potential buyer. This includes attending a mandatory seven-part Samoyed webinar series on the breed, before being considered for the waiting list.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
