Welcome to our home on the web. We hope you will enjoy your visit and introduction to some of our dogs.
We are Margaret and John MacFadden who has a small hobby kennel located about 20 minutes west of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada.
Our goal is to produce beautiful healthy, sound Samoyeds that excel in breed type. Our Samoyeds make wonderful family companions, therapy companions, show/breed companions and are true to breed type or true to what a Samoyed should be.
We are very active in the sport of purebred dogs and extremely proud of the success we have had with our homebred Samoyeds. We are very proud to say that Margaret has breeder/owner/handled our dogs to Best in Shows, Multi-Best in Shows and many group wins. Obedience titles have also been earned on some of our dogs.
We are both members in good standing of the Canadian Kennel Club and Marg is a member of the Samoyed Association of Canada and the Samoyed Club of America. We have also been very involved in Samoyed Rescue in both Canada and the USA.

Samoyeds are not our living – they are our love. We breed to improve the
breed and only when we are looking for that special puppy to use in our
breeding program. We generally produce one or two litters per year. As such,
we have puppies available occasionally to appropriately screened and
approved companion homes. (puppy questionnaire) |
All of our puppies are raised in our home underfoot to ensure they are exposed to the goings on of our life and to ensure that they are correctly socialized. Our puppies have a written guarantee that the sire and dam are clear of any hereditary or congenital birth defects. Snowstar dogs are registered with the Canadian Kennel Club, have been microchipped with CKC approved chips, first set of vaccinations, vet checks. Puppies up to 26 weeks will receive Pet Plan care insurance coverage. All companion dogs are sold on a Non-Breeding Agreement which means they may not be bred. Occasionally, we are able to provide a welcomed addition to a breeders program.
Our relationship with our new puppy owner does not end when the puppy goes to their new home. We are always available to offer support, encouragement or advice if needed. We strongly believe that we have a responsibility to puppies we produce for their entire lifetime. There is never a reason for a Snowstar puppy to be placed in a shelter or rescue ... we will always be available. In fact, our contract insists we be advised if situations in the home change or the dog needs to be returned.
As
a breeder of these wonderful dogs we stress the importance of health testing. Prior
to any breeding we ensure our dogs are properly health tested (hips and eye
certification available) to help us ensure that we are breeding sound healthy
Samoyeds.
Please feel free to
email or telephone (902-675-2752) us at
any time if you have any questions about our Samoyeds or the breed in general.
"IF DOGS RULED THE WORLD ...
We'd always find somewhere to bury our troubles.
Our spirits would be unleashed.
We'd stop barking up the wrong trees.
We'd always paws for reflection.
Beggars could be choosers.
We'd have faithful friends and loyal love.
We'd give a lick about each other."
