We are delighted to welcome from Norway our youngest male, the handsome, strong-willed and absolutely charming, Jack.

Bred by Åsne Constanse Haugen & Ingrid Anne Urdalen of Kennel Nipnatten, Jack's pedigree represents an exciting blend of many wonderful dogs who have excelled in harness and in the show ring - and with his Father being a third generation Greenland import brings some fantastic genetic diversity to the breed here in the UK.

Pictured working in lead in the photo above, his parents are both health tested at HD-A and are strong workers in the team with kind, stable temperaments, traits we hope to see in Jack as he develops.

Arriving into the UK at the end of September 2024, Jack took every new experience in his stride, enjoying his first road trip out with the pack less than 24 hours after hitting UK soil and it hasn't taken long for him to become firm friends with his kennel mate Ryan, soon followed by a trip to Belgium for his first show ring outing where he picked up 4x 1st / Very Promising awards

His first UK Open Show experience in January was a fantastic one, not only winning his class and Best Puppy in Breed but going on to take a fantastic Working Puppy Group 2, and has since accumulated further Best of Breed, Best Puppy in Breed & Puppy Group places at UK Open Shows.

He has been consistent in his first six months of Championship Show outings here in the UK, picking up 1 Best Dog, 5 Reserve Best Dog & 6 Best Puppy awards - including Crufts! His success has continued as a Junior, with further Best Dog / Reserve Best Dog awards in both AVNSC and Breed competition.

Outside the UK he has also seen success, enjoy some trips across the water to Ireland where he closed his Irish Junior Champion title in back to back shows - clever boy!
He also made the epic road trip to Finland for the World Dog Show Helsinki 2025 event where he came home with the Junior World Winner title and his Finnish Junior Champion Award! 
He ended his Junior career with a trip to Brussels where he not only gained 7x BOB & 3x Junior awards but also closed the requirements for his Beligan Champion & Belgian Junior Champion titles!

2026 started well for Jack despite a quiet January on the show front, seeing him take his first group placing at a UK Open Show as well as gain Best Dog & Best Opposite Sex at Crufts 2026 under breed specialist judge Nicola Singh (Sledog)!

The Winter als gave him the opportunity to start training in harness and he got to enjoy his first race experience running with partner in crime Ryan and friend Strike - where they won their class! He is also showing great potential in weightpull.

He has also had the opportunity to represent the breed at educational events, including Crufts Discover Dogs 2026 where he teamed up with Alice to meet and greet the general public in attendance wanting to learn more about the breed and made us very proud!

We are super excited to see how he develops, and have high hopes for what he can contribute not just to our kennel, but to the breed as a whole here in the UK.
