Kennel Flagstones has been registered in 1995 for Sini. She has been breeding Border Terriers since 1997. Chinese Cresteds became part of breeding work in 2006. Lea Alenius has been involved from the beginning of Flagstones Chinese Cresteds breeding. She is "the Old man" with Chinese Cresteds. Lea imported with her husband their first Chinese Crested from the UK in 1988. The hairless male, Kojak Kordier, moved to their family. A year later Lea imported a bitch from the same Kennel and bred with these dogs one litter in 1991.

Flagstones kennel name points to Sini's mum and her love and desire to decorate garden with flagstones.

Lea has now five bitch Chinese Cresteds at home as a pet. Also two our youngster bitches Safiiri and Filippa lives with Lea. Two imported bitches from Sweden and the boys live with Sini. All our dogs are first family members and second breed dogs and show dogs. We share the house and garden, we don't have separate kennel part, they even sleep in the same bed. Sini have also one pharaoh hound and couple border terriers at home.

Our main activities are dog shows. Sini is seen often in the ring with Chinese Cresteds. All our dogs eat raw food (raw bones, meat, offal, vegetables, fruits etc). We cook food ourself from fresh food. Also our puppies will grow with raw food.
 
 

We both are interested in health of the breed. Health is one of our breeding goals. All our breeding dogs will be examinated: heart, knees, eyes, elbows and hips. Additionally we make also the prcd-PRA gene test for all our dogs. We drive at that both parents will have valid cerf- and heart examination results when mating. In our opinion, these should not be older than a year.

We have chosen openness in our breeding work. We try to be as open we can about faults and diseases of our dogs. Every single line has problems - smaller or bigger. Publishing only positive results, does not implement, that there are no problems at all. Every one of us will, sooner or later, get together with one or several problems, and it feels terribly bad. But if we are open for each other, we can at least identify these issues much better. And maybe even build a better Chinese crested. From these pages you will find all examination and results what have been made for our dogs.

Chinese cresteds has deserved our respect and we have to remember to keep this great animal as original as possible concerning the meaning, appearance and health. It is great to be a friend of Chinese cresteds!

 

Please contact us, if you have any questions or you would like to know us better. We love to talk about Chinese Cresteds!
