this is us
Since childhood, I've been a huge fan of dogs, and this love for these loyal companions has stayed with me to this day. As a mother of three sons, I live with my family in the heart of Zurich, where city life and nature blend together beautifully. Even before our children were born, my husband and I had wanted a dog to join our family. Three years ago, this dream came true with the arrival of Mocca, our adorable Labradoodle. Since then, my enthusiasm for this breed has only grown stronger.
Professionally, I'm a trained biomedical analyst, but the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic inspired me to pursue my dream. I decided to train as a dog trainer, which I successfully completed in 2023. This new direction in my life has not only brought me joy but has also further ignited my passion for dogs.
With Mocca by my side, I wanted to realize another dream: breeding dogs. I am convinced that only the most beautiful and loving puppies can come from such a wonderful dog like Mocca. Her character is so unique that everyone who meets her has to fall in love with her. Today, I am proud to run a dog breeding business and I am committed with all my heart to caring for and raising the puppies. It is a fulfilling job that not only gives me joy, but also gives me the opportunity to give other people the love and joy that a dog brings into their lives.
We breed according to the WALA guidelines and place great emphasis on healthy and friendly parent animals as well as comprehensive socialization of our puppies.
Our breeding & health philosophy
Our focus is not only on breeding healthy dogs, but also on the best possible development of each individual puppy – right from the start.
🧬 Health & Breeding Responsibility
The health of our breeding dogs is our top priority. Therefore, all our breeding animals undergo comprehensive examinations and are carefully selected.
Extensive genetic testing for a wide range of hereditary diseases
Regular eye examinations (at least every 1.5 years) for the early detection of eye diseases
HD (hip), ED (elbow) and patella examinations for all breeding dogs
Only dogs that meet our high health requirements are used for breeding.
🐾 Early development of our puppies
Our puppies grow up with a structured early development program based on modern findings from behavioral research.
Early neurological stimulation (ENS)
Already in the first days of life (days 3–16) we carry out targeted, short exercises that have been proven to:
strengthen the nervous system
improve stress resistance
promote general health
Early environmental enrichment
From the 3rd week of life, the puppies are carefully introduced to various stimuli:
different surfaces
various sounds
new game objects and small challenges
This helps puppies develop self-confidence, curiosity, and stability at an early age.
🌍 Socialization & Everyday Life Training
In the following weeks, our puppies will gradually get to know everyday life:
Contact with different people
Everyday noises such as vacuum cleaners or household appliances
first experiences outdoors
Getting used to car rides and new environments
Our goal is to raise open, confident, and adaptable dogs.
In addition, we place great emphasis on early familiarization with care and handling:
gentle brushing and touching of the fur
First positive experiences with the clipper/clipping head
gentle habituation to paw, ear and body checks
First steps in medical training (staying still, trusting touch)
This way, the puppies learn early on to accept grooming and examinations in a stress-free and relaxed manner.
This not only promotes well-being in everyday life, but also makes veterinary visits and coat care considerably easier later on.
🧠 Individual temperament assessment
Every puppy is unique. That's why we conduct a structured temperament and character assessment before they are placed in their new homes.
Among other things, we pay attention to:
Social behavior
Play and learning behavior
Stress management
Curiosity and adaptability
This way we can match each puppy with the most suitable family possible.
