About the Kennel

Dreamberry Kennel - since 2008. Responsible dog ownership and breeding

Dreamberry is a private kennel, registered with the Estonian Kennel Union (Eesti Kennelliit, EKL) on 18 February 2008 under ID EKL № 15/08. EKL is a full member of the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI).

The kennel is based in Vasalemma, Harju County, Estonia. Since 2008 we have committed ourselves to a carefully planned breeding programme, aimed at the exceptional quality of our breeding stock - physical health, anatomical conformity, mental stability and an unwavering orientation towards people.

The kennel's principal activities are the breeding, showing and popularisation in Estonia of the American Akita - FCI Group 5, Standard № 344. Dogs of Dreamberry are multiple European and World Champions; they have won breed specialty awards and held the prestigious title "Dog of the Year" in Estonia.

In earlier years the kennel also successfully bred the American Staffordshire Terrier, Affenpinscher, Belgian Griffon and Brussels Griffon; their lines - through the descendants of our sires - continue to influence the gene pool of these breeds both in Estonia and abroad. In 2026 the American Staffordshire Terrier returned to the kennel's breeding and show programme.

Breeding Philosophy

A quietly uncompromising approach to the American Akita.

Over eighteen years of consistent work the principles below have shaped every breeding decision at Dreamberry. They are not slogans but conditions, applied to each dog before, during and after a planned pairing.

01

Preservation of the classical lines

Reinforcement of traditional American Akita bloodlines with strict consolidation of key breed traits in full compliance with the FCI breed standard.

02

Comprehensive selection of breeding stock

Physical health, anatomical conformity, mental stability, human-orientation and the absence of aggression - assessed together, not in isolation.

03

Mandatory veterinary examination

Every dog used in, or planned for, breeding undergoes full veterinary assessment before being entered into a programme.

04

Health screening to FCI protocol

Breed-specific testing for hip dysplasia (HD) and elbow dysplasia (ED), plus the recommended DNA panels for the American Akita.

05

Lifelong support of puppy owners

Advisory support on housing, feeding, raising and training - for the full life of every dog placed with a family by the kennel.

06

A balanced family companion

Shaping the public image of the American Akita as what the breed truly is when properly bred and raised - a stable, devoted, human-oriented companion.
