Thank you for your interest in the Native American Village Dog. This is a breed in process and has been developed to offer an alternative to the Native American Indian Dog. The Native American Village Dog will be very similar to the Native American Indian Dog in many ways. The only difference is that the foundational stock will be of my own chosen lines and not Majestic Views, with the exception of Zakai.

In breeding the Village Dogs, I have chosen to integrate into the bloodlines more German Shepherd and Siberian Husky. Both of these breeds are already present in the Native American Indian Dogs. If you check the foundational stock used by M.V. Kennels you will see that she used these breeds to build her line. By doing this, Indian Valley Kennels is striving to provide a well rounded dog that offers the wonderful attributes of all the represented breeds. Our goal is to offer a dog that is stable, highly intelligent, trainable and one that will give their new family many years of joy, love and companionship.

Indian Valley Kennels will always strive to provide well socialized and healthy pups that have great temperaments, but as with any breed their personalities will differ. If you are interested in purchasing a Native American Village Dog puppy please contact me by phone or email and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Be aware that although these dogs are typically good with people who have asthma or allergies to dogs, it does not guarantee, with 100% accuracy, that everyone will be able to own them. There have been people who, if extremely sensitive, react to Maltese, Yorkshire Terriers, Poodles and Shitzu dogs who are known to be the best for those with dog allergies.

The combination between Zakai and Tehya has been found to be HYPOALLERGENIC and can be owned by most people who are allergic to other breeds of dogs or who suffer from asthma. Because they produce less dander than other dogs, this benefits those who are usually sensitive. Molly and China’s offspring appear to have hypoallergenic qualities as well. There have been some very mild reactions but for the most part they have been very well tolerated.

The best way to check for sensitivity is to expose yourself to the dogs themselves. Getting a hair sample is a secondary way, if you are not close enough to visit in person.

It is imperative that you request a hair sample in order to check for allergy or asthma sensitivity in you or someone else in your household. When contacting IVK, just note in your email or when speaking with me that you need me to send a hair sample and make sure you provide you address so I know where to send it. You can also ask to see if there is a NAVD in your area that you can personally visit. You may schedule an appointment to visit the kennel if you are in or planning to be in the area. Please do not just drop by as I need to schedule time to meet with you. I do work outside the home as well, and have a daily routine that is followed and I may not have time to spend with you if you were to just drop by. (KENNEL VISITS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY!).

Thank you again for your interest in the Native American Village Dogs and for visiting the Indian Valley Kennel website. We appreciate your interest in our dogs and welcome your feedback.
