" Dogs are not our whole life but they make our lifes whole " |
| - Roger Caras - |
Ehfi Kennel is situated about 15 minutes drive outside Norway's |
third largest city, Trondheim. We live in a house with a large garden. |
The woods are our closest neighbor, and we highly appreciate this. |
Ehfi Kennel consists of Ingunn, Frode, our daughter Amanda Christine, who |
was born 14th June 2009, our pugs, our amstaff and two cats. |
We keep our dogs as equal members of our family. |
Our favorite acitivities are skiing in the winter, hiking, jogging, |
picking blueberries in the forrest (yes, the dogs actually pick |
their own blueberries), enjoying a good sleep in front of the fireplace |
or just hanging out in the couch watching tv. |
It is now illegal to breed/sell Amstaffs here in Norway. |
Our beloved amstaffs will of course continue to live with us for the rest of |
their lifes.They are an important part of our family, helping us with |
socializing the little pug puppies towards bigger dogs and so forth. |
Both Frode and myself have always been facinated and |
intrigued by the Pug. We both loved the Pug's attitude |
and their looks, but at the same time we wanted a dog that would |
be a bit more atlethic and had higher workability & endurance. |
Well, this was all thoughts we we had before we got our first |
pug home. The pugs are surprisingly active and agile. |
(And some, *hint Rumba* can almost be too active believe it or not hehe). |
This was the beginning of something new for us. |
We fell head over heals in love with this funny little clown, |
always there to make us laugh. Safe to say that we are both |
now absolutely bitten by the pugbug!! |
We had our first Pug litter April 2005. |
We wish to thank Penny, Glomar Pugs and Heidi, Pugbully Knls |
from the bottom of our hearts for sharing your lines and your |
knowledge with us. We are for ever grateful for this! |
Also, many thanks to our friends within and outside |
the breed for all your input and support! What would |
dog shows and breedings be without people like you:-) |

About the kennel name |
We started the process of applying for a kennel |
name late 2003 before our first litter was born. |
Getting a kennel name approved by both the FCI and |
the Norwegian Kennel Club was a time consuming |
buisiness. After going through a long list of alternatives |
we got final approval for the name 'EHFI'. |
Ehfi is a combination of our initials. |
In October 2004 our kennel name was officially recognized by the FCI. |
E for Ebbesvik |
H for Haukland |
F for Frode |
I for Ingunn |
