About Us:
It´s I, Berit Sjøholt and my husbond Jan Arne Sjøholt who is behind the Kennel prefix Arfenco. Our Kennel name is a mix of names from dogs we have owned and is no longer with us. We live with our dogs in a beautiful part of Norway, Sand. It is a small place between Stavanger and Haugesund, in western coast of Norway. We breed lowchens in a small scale and our focus is good health and quality of our dogs. All of the dogs live as fully family members together with us in the house. If you consider to get a lowchen or just want to hear and learn more about our beautiful breed you are welcome to contact us by phone or e-mail.
We love going to dogshows, both for showing dogs, meeting friends and sometimes just to look. I think it is just as important to make time to look at dogs and dog shows, as it is to show dogs ourselves. You learn a lot about dogs and dog breeds by looking at the variety of dogs in a breed. We go to show training once a week in our locak dog club, about an hour drive from us.
We have also attended some courses held by NKK (the Norwegian Kennel Club), about breeding «Oppdretterskolen 1 og 2» (breeder school 1 & 2), one about Kynologi and some dog handlers courses. Both me and my husbond are also authorized ring stewards.
