Our Story
About Klassicle Kennels
A lifelong passion for dogs, a decade in the Malamute ring, and a commitment to raising every puppy the right way — at home, with love.
The Story
A Lifetime in the Ring
It started at age 5 in the Havanese ring. From there came Pembroke Welsh Corgis, Australian Shepherds, and a junior showmanship career shaped by two of the best mentors imaginable — both parents professional handlers and breeders.
Junior showmanship opened the door to an extraordinary education. Golden Retrievers, American Foxhounds, Corgis, Aussies, Beagles, Pointers — each breed demanded its own technique, its own rhythm, its own relationship. Every dog was a lesson.
In 2015, a trip to the Alaskan Malamute National with Mike Stone and Alisa Syar changed everything. One look at the breed in the ring and it was clear — this was home. Ten years later, that passion became Klassicle Kennels, with a first litter bred using 28-year-old frozen semen.
The name Klassicle is a tribute to the two kennels most influential in the program — Sno Klassic and SilverIce. Blended together, they became the foundation of everything built here.
The love of dogs runs deep in the family. Alongside Klassicle Kennels, a proud part of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi breeding program is carried on — a legacy started by grandmother Pinemeade and continued by mother Foxlair.
The Name
The Name Behind the Kennel
People always ask where "Klassicle" comes from. It's a blend of the two kennels most influential in the breeding program — Son Klassic and SilverIce. Two legacies, one name.
Our Philosophy
Family-Raised, Home Environment
Every Klassicle puppy is born and raised in our home — not a kennel building, not an outside run. From their first breath, our puppies are surrounded by the sights, sounds, and rhythms of everyday family life. They're handled daily, socialized with children and other animals, and given every advantage to become confident, well-adjusted companions.
Home Raised
Puppies are whelped and raised inside our home from day one.
Health Tested
All breeding dogs are OFA certified for hips, elbows, and Embark DNA Testing.
Show Quality
Bred to the AKC standard with champion bloodlines on both sides.
Lifelong Support
We stay in touch with every family — our relationship doesn't end at placement.
