We have several other breedings in development.  Check back here soon!

To potential puppy owners: Our pups will be available for placement when they reach 8 weeks of age. They will be appropriately socialized with other animals, children, adults and new environments. They will be temperament tested and evaluated for conformation to the breed standard. Click here to read about our conformation evaluations. They will be DNA-VIP. GreatMountain puppies also come with a one year membership to the Chinook Owners Association. All of our puppies are placed with contracts.  Because it is our goal to match the right puppy with the right home, we never make placement promises until we evaluate the personality of the puppy.  We chose placements for all puppies and do not allow owners to "pick" their pup.  This is a new concept to many dog owners, so we like to set it out up front so there will be no surprises!

Please read our kennel philosophy. Our goal in breeding is to produce healthy Chinooks with outstanding temperament, drive and conformation. A healthy, well-structured dog will serve you well whether you want a snuggly couch potato, a hiking companion, a competitive show dog or a recreational sled dog. Our dogs are all this and more and we look for studs who compliment each dog's unique strengths. 

If you have questions about whether a Chinook puppy is right for you, please read the FAQs on the Chinook Owners Association website before deciding on this breed.
