Puppies Bred With Purpose, Raised With Love

Every Islamore litter is planned with intention, drawing from generations of health-tested parents with proven temperaments. Our goal is to give your future puppy the best possible start, both physically and emotionally.

What Your Can Expect From Us

  • Comprehensive Health Testing
    Every parent dog is tested for breed-specific conditions to reduce the risk of inherited diseases. We work closely with veterinarians and specialists to ensure our dogs and their puppies are as healthy as possible.
    Health clearance certificates are available for viewing at your puppy visit.

    • CHEDS Hip and Elbow Assessment and Scoring

    • Heart Check by a Veterinary Cardiology Specialist

    • Annual ACES Eye Screening by Veterinary Eye Specialists

    • DNA Testing to ensure no hereditary diseases are passed on to puppies

  • Temperament-First Philosophy
    We carefully match our parent dogs for behavioural stability, intelligence, and affection. This helps ensure puppies grow into dogs that are friendly, emotionally stable, eager to learn, socially curious and resilient.

  • Early Socialisation Matters
    From birth, our puppies are exposed to daily handling, household sounds, stage-appropriate challenges, and positive human interaction. We follow evidence-based socialisation programs that set the foundation for confident, well-adjusted adult dogs.
