Finnish Lapphund Dog Breeder - Sydney, NSW

We are based in Sydney and our lives are dedicated to this special breed. We hold Lappie Open Days at our home, for people to meet our dogs, meet ourselves and ask lots of questions. Contact us for full information and to RSVP.

When you adopt an Orical Lappie you receive lifetime support. This includes:
* 10 weeks of one on one coaching support with a qualified dog trainer
* We hold monthly webinars for our puppy owners, where you can ask questions and receive ongoing guidance and advice.
* We also have a Facebook message group for the owners in each litter, where you can ask questions and share photos and news.

Each of our puppies graduate from our 'Super Puppy Program'. This is a unique and specialised training and socialisation program that we have developed to give each puppy the very best start to life.

We have a vibrant and friendly Lappie community in NSW & ACT, with regular Lappie meets and playdates. When you adopt a Lappie, you don't just get a puppy, you get a community.
