Flat Coated Retriever Puppies for Sale, ACT

Kiwiline Flat Coated Retrievers is based on a small lifestyle block in South Auckland, New Zealand and was born from the desire to provide families with healthy pets true to the happy go lucky Flat Coated Retriever breed type. We are incredibly lucky to have been gifted with four lovely dogs bred by Judy Kennon-Wray, Peter Kennon and Jazmyn Wray of Bushman Kennels in Melbourne Victoria as our foundation dogs/ pets/ family members. I will forever appreciate the time, effort and love that went into producing these dogs and the friendships I received along with them. Judy and Peter Kennon, her father, are forever in my heart. In nine years of showing we have been awarded multiple Class in Groups, Class in Show, Reserve in Group and Best in Group awards along with Best and Reserve in Specialty and Reserve in Show All Breeds but at the end of the day, our dogs are dogs. They run on our acreage, play in the mud, chase birds and retrieve rabbits. Their soundness and temperament are as Flat Coat as they can be thanks to their careful breeding. WE will ONLY ever breed when we believe the time is right for another to join our family and that the mating will improve the breed, not to fill orders. We are more than happy to discuss the breed at any time. All of our dogs have clear eye certificates and better than average hip and elbow scores for Flat Coats.

We have owned Flatcoated Retrievers since 1982 and bred our first litter in 1985. Our own dogs have successfully competed in obedience, agility and conformation disciplines. Our current breeding stock is based on our imports from kennel Black Brianta in the Czech Republic, with our current stud dogs being "Cappy" (NZ Ch Extraordinary Black Brianta) and our young dog "Legend" (Legendary Black Brianta). Cappy has gained several placings in agility and obedience from very few outings as our main focus is on breed showing where he has gained multiple class in group, best and reserve in group awards. Legend arrived in February 2023 at 10 months of age and promptly won Best on Parade from 50+ entries at Manawatu and then Puppy in Show at both Taranaki Gundog Club and Hawkes Bay Kennel Association champ shows. He has gained several group placings since including Junior of Group at the Prelude Show in Auckland. These young dogs excite us as they are just getting better and better. Our next litter is planned for the end of 2024 from which some puppies may be available. The sire will be Legend (imported from Czech Republic) and the dam will be Lennie (NZ Ch Alenka of Annaglyn). Enquiries welcome.

My first Flat Coat arrived in 1984 and although Tara was not a show dog, she taught me how wonderful the temperament of this breed is. 1993 saw the arrival of Inji into my life and the introduction to the conformation and breeding world. Her first litter produced Tali, my first male. Inji and Tali (hence the kennel name) were a delight to live with and were my first two show champions. 1998 Elly (Ch Kellick Carn Of Cailiche CCD) arrived and was my foundation bitch. Her first litter produced Jy (Ch Injitali In The Black CD). In 2004 Elly's second litter saw the arrival of Baloo (Gr Ch Injitali Intrigue CCD RN). Baloo's first litter produced Booker who is Dual Gr Ch (TS) Dual Ch (T) Injitali Sir Bouncealot. Extremely naughty and highly intelligent. Best dog ever when I need a cuddle. 2011 saw the arrival of Baloo's second litter and I kept two pups. Seeker is now Dual Gr Ch (TS) Dual Ch (T) Injitali Intriguing Secret. Tiger is Dual Gr Ch (TS) Dual Ch (T) Intriguing Tale. 2017 Seeker produced Lani (Ch Injitali Treasure Seeker). I call Lani "The Apprentice" as she delights in copying and watching Uncle Booker's clever and naughty antics. 3 Dual Grand Champions was not something I thought I would ever do when I first started with Flat Coats. So proud of them all.

We commenced showing and breeding with golden retrievers in 1978 but have owned and shown flatcoats since 1987 after seeing our first flatcoat at a United Retriever Club show in England in 1986 where we fell in love with the breed. Our aim is to produce dual purpose dogs who have the outgoing temperament that flat coated retrievers are known for. We commenced breeding flatcoated retrievers in 2006 and have produced champions in Australia and New Zealand. Our dogs are family first, show dogs second and all enjoy participating in other dog activities. Contact Christine Clarke 0364 269216, or 0419 878 121 Email [email protected]

Unforeseen circumstances mean we have a couple of pups available to exceptional homes. This litter, born in early October '25 have had their first health check, vaccination and microchip. Deerhounds are not your average dog. They love human companionship and interaction and make excellent pets. They do need the ability to run around very fast daily. They also sleep about 23 hours of the day. These dogs are large in size (40+kgs), are a hunting breed, and do require training and socialization. As a wire haired breed their coats are easy to maintain. Our pups are born in our house and raised in our home with our children and busy lives. Usually they are fairly well toilet trained before they go to their new forever home. Extensive efforts have been made to introduce as many situations as is possible without exposure to illness. The Pups parents were DNA screened for Factor VII and tested for Liver Shunt. These pups are Registered with Dogs NZ. Healthwise, the pups are wormed every fortnight, treated with a flea treatment, microchipped and vaccinated prior to going home. They will leave with 6 weeks free pet insurance which we encourage purchasers to maintain. Each pup will go home with a puppy pack, which includes a manual with details of how they have been reared and with helpful information, registration papers, a fortnights’ worth of food, treats, toys, blanket, collar, lead and a contract.
