Welcome to Hena-C Kennel! I'm the owner, Pam Lake, a professional dog trainer, breeder and groomer who has owned and bred German Shepherds since 1983 and Cairn Terriers since 1998.

I got started with German Shepherds during my senior year in high school raising puppies for Fidelco Guide Dog foundation . I was lucky enough to keep one of my foster dogs that was rejected from their program. It was the perfect dog  to take with me to dog training school where I got her trained in all areas as a demonstration dog for my business. After working with Uta and falling in love with the breed because of their intelligence, loyalty, dedication, versatility and loving nature, I looked into breeding them. I ended up specializing in the DDR/East German bloodlines because of their looks, temperament, trainability and health. Because of the strict breeding selection measures in the former DDR, the current "East dogs" will catch anyone's eye because of their dark pigment, strong, heavy bone structure and stocky builds. These lines also tend to be much more healthy and lack the kind of issues that other lines have. The German Shepherd that has developed in the former DDR with the big bones, broad heads, well balanced character, beautiful rich dark colors, is no phenomenon!! This type of shepherd has been very unique and I wish to keep this for the future. So as a lover and admirer of the DDR/East Shepherds, I want to preserve what is left of these wonderful dogs and their rare bloodlines. I also have added the Czech bloodlines because they are the same type and carry many of the great DDR/East dogs in their pedigrees.

I got started with the Cairn Terriers when I met my husband. His family has Cairns that they had for breeding from two long time and well known show kennels. I helped get them bred for 2 litters and then ended up buying 3 sisters from one litter to keep the breeding going. Not being much of a small dog person, I really liked the Cairns because they are hardy, tough and very happy, social dogs. They also get along well with my shepherds and share the same love of retrieving, swimming and guarding. I am not a big show breeder. I do have excellent champion show bloodlines and will show some dogs that I feel deserve to show. My goal is to breed quality, healthy companions for families that have the excellent backgrounds with show lines.

All of our breeding stock for both breeds have excellent  temperaments, are clear on genetic issues and love people. We import a lot of our dogs and keep some from our own litters. Take a look at our site for info and pictures!
