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
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.
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 excited to announce the safe arrival of our long awaited Clumber litter. We will have girls and boys available. The Clumber Spaniel is not a common breed, it is a grand aristocratic British Spaniel. Their job description, like other spaniels is to find and flush game for the gun; to be steady and to receive it tenderly, from land or water. The characteristics that make them good in the field have allowed them to transition well to city life and the Clumber is an excellent companion for those of us that do not work them to the gun. We are a small family kennel; and only breed occasionally. We enjoying showing our dogs and we also do a multitude of dog sports including obedience and tracking. Both parents have excellent temperaments and character and are from fully health tested lines with a proven background to suit any intended purpose. Pups will be vetted, microchipped and vaccinated, we pay special attention to socialization, frequent handling, exploring different environments and varied experiences to ensure a confident, friendly, outgoing nature. Phone reception in our area is not the best, please contact us via email for information about our lovely pups
