The Serenity Cove Kids

     I first found out about this breed in August of 2001 while surfing the web. I instantly knew that this was the breed for me. I got on a waiting list and was shocked to find out in February of 2002 that a puppy was available to me. We drove to pick up Zoe two weeks later, and the rest is history. Zoe is mommy baby and she knows it. Kassia came along not quite 1 year later. Then, just four months later we brought home our first male, Keegan. Cooper, our sheltie, came during the Christmas holiday of 2003 and Luka, our 2nd male AKK came in January, 2004. We had our first litter of AKK in March of 2004 and our Nickelson Layne was born in that litter. We had our second litter in January of 2005 and that's when our little Lacee Lu joined the pack. We just couldn't bare to part with her! Kambry came to us from Karen Street of AliAK Kennels in August, 2005. We chose her from her litter at five weeks of age and were thrilled when she joined us at nine-weeks-old. She was our first blue-eyed beauty. Kanon followed Kambry from AliAK not quite a year later. Little miss Ava Rose was born in Lacee and Kanon's first litter and tried out a new home before deciding she liked Maryland best of all. We're thrilled with her decision! In January of 2008, Karen sent me a picture of a gorgeous little girl and it didn't take me long to figure out she was going to be the newest addition to the household. Brylee’s addition brought us to eleven dogs; and coined our title of “The Crazy Dog Family” with all of our neighbors.
     Once Brylee arrived, we spent a lot of our time focusing on our dogs and their show careers, while also raising a litter or two here and there. Kim left for school at Frostburg State University in August, 2008 absolutely heartbroken that she’d have to leave her best friends behind. It wasn’t until August, 2010 that Nicky and Luka could join her in her new off campus home. After the boys joined Kim in Frostburg, all was right in the world… We were happy, and so were our dogs! In September of 2011, Kim and Scott decided it was time for them to add a new member to their pack; this is where Khanlie, the Siberian husky, comes in. She, too, came from Karen Street! In the fall of 2012 we contacted Karen about stud services, and flew Toast out a few weeks later. We automatically fell in love with him and decided that we just had to make him ours... he flew back to Maryland for good in January 2013 and now lives with Luka, Nicky, and Khanlie in Western MD.
     This brings us to the present, we’re currently at 13 dogs and sailing steady. Feel free to click on each of their pictures, located to the right, to learn more about them!
