Breeding first and foremost for health and temperament. Striving to improve longevity in this magical breed
Puppies sometimes available, honest breed advice always available
Long time but occasional breeder - Litters always planned but lady luck plays a part ;-)
We have been loved and owned by Leonbergers since 2002. Over the years we have imported dogs from Sweden, Australia and the UK and have had the pleasure of making up numerous NZ Champions. Schiehallion is a small kennel concentrating on producing dogs with excellent temperaments and conformation. We breed to continue our excellent lines and to show so we have limited litters with some matings being a long time in the planning! Our puppies are registered with the NZ Kennel Club and come with a lifetime of support. All our matings are carefully considered and our dogs must pass strict health tests prior to a mating being considered. Since `2011 we have also owned and shown Weimaraners.
Due to the high demand for Leonbergers most people are on a waiting list and it is advisable to register your interest so your chosen breeder can keep in contact with you.

Berglowe is a small show and breeding home.
Our main focus is on health and temperament as we believe these are key to for any new family member.
Miss Indie has been socialised with many animals from ponies and goats to cats and birds. Her main love is people, from as young as 3mths old and is always ready for cuddles or a belly scratch. She is first and most importantly a member of our family, and resident couch hog.
In March 2019 Indie became the youngest Leonberger in Australia to gain their AUSTRALIAN GRAND CHAMPIONSHIP title!
A Berglöwe puppy isn't just a dog, they are a family member, and we will only place our babies in the best, preferably indoor, homes.
Our babies are all raised in our home around the family.
Please understand, this is a hobby and not a business so please send serious enquires only.
For anyone around Sydney, I offer show mentoring for those thinking of showing their Berglöwe puppy.
All our Leonbergers are health tested (hip and elbow scored, eyes including gonioscopy etc) and temperament checked to ensure only healthy and balanced puppies are born. All of our girls are negative/clear for the four breed specific genetic conditions.
LPN 1 - N/N (clear)
LPN 2 - N/N (clear)
LPPN 3 - N/N (clear)
LEMP - N/N (clear)
If thinking of adding a Leonberger to your family, we recommend meeting the parents out in public to see the type of temperaments the puppies may inh
Having Leonbergers a big part of our life for 15+ years, our dogs are our family first. Regularly attending social events with family and friends, car cruises, beach outings, market trips and more.
We pride ourselves breeding much loved family pets as well as quality, sound show/breeding dogs with a focus on health, temperaments, longevity and expanding genetics. Our breeding dogs comply with the breed health recommendations and their results are made available publicly on the worldwide database: http://www.leonberger-database.com

Please be mindful that adding a leonberger to your family will require patience and long waiting times, often of a few years.
Our love affair with Leos began almost 20 years ago. Our first Leo, Sabra, was from the 1st litter to NZ in 1995. We remained pet free for a few years but when we purchased this land 12 years ago it was a good time to start our doggie family again. And so began our collection of lions.
We love our dogs , they are a big part of our family. Big is the operative word here. Big in every which way. Big feet, big tongues, big coats,big appetites and big hearts. If you have room, not only on your section but in your family then these wonderful dogs will be the best addition to your lives.
Our personal search for new genetics to secure the future of Leonbergers in NZ has been fruitful with 3 young imported dogs added to our collection in the past year. We have also formed some very strong international friendships on this journey and feel honoured that these friends have understood our vision and entrusted us with their lines.

We are pleased to announce the arrival of our litter between Taoiseach The Creature (aka Goliath) and Canemaestoso Black Velvet (aka Gulbahar). This litter comes from a long line of notable Neapolitan Mastiffs, such as Se. Ch. Nero Del Malapensiero (Ita), Ch. Hugo of the Witches Meltingpot (Imp NOR), Ch. Drago Del Robbiano (Imp ITA), Ch. Maggiormente Cupid and Ch. Magnufi Tito.
The puppies parents are true and correct to their breed - Goliath weighing-in at well over 85kgs, he is a true specimen. He maintains the physical structure, protective nature and storge / familial love expected. His physical features are second-to-none, with a huge head, great coat, bone density and posture. A truly excellent example of the breed.
Gulbahar is a fantastic bitch, who, despite her usually playful and spirited nature, has demonstrated to be an exceptional mother. She has an excellent black / brindle coat, beautiful looking face, great posture and bone density and weighed-in at 60-odd kgs before puppies. She is a fun-loving dog with a huge affection for her family.
We currently have two (2) puppies looking for their new homes (grey female, black-brindle female). The puppies are showing excellent traits and would be well suited for the show ring (if you are that way inclined), but most importantly, would make ideal companions. The puppies were born 03/09/24 and will be available from 01/11/24.
