About Jimary Kennels
Our Kennel (pictured above) was constructed by us using what we had determined necessary to provide all of the finer doggy amenities. The kennel's has heated floors in the cold weather, air conditioned in hot weather and a colour TV for the Pugs and Cavaliers enjoyment. It is believed that Pugs can actually see colors somewhat as humans (the Cavaliers agree that they also enjoy their TV time). They love the children's educational programing provided by TV Ontario, because the upbeat childlike sounds appeal to the Pugs love of kids and good honest fun.
The Jimary kennel consists of 1000 sq. ft of interior space, with the boys kennels located on the left side (from front view) and the girls kennels are on the right side. The center section is a large 700 sq. ft. puppy area and our human interaction and service area (this is where my computer is located). Both the male and femals kennels have been arranged so they have totally enclosed outer runs with access through individual plastic flap doggy doors. The outside enclosed runs total 600 sq. ft. and have access to separate large exercise areas, which each consist of at least 10,000 sq. ft., lots of shade, and many interesting things to keep curious Pugs and Cavaliers amused.
Our Pugs And Cavaliers get to use the exercise area for at least 4 to 5 hours each day, which I oversee. I oversee all their outside activities, in order to allow their feeling of total natural freedom while ensuring their safety. This also allows a normal human companion relationship while ensuring that there won't be harmful disagreements.
When we first embarked on our journey and love affair with the Pug, we shared our human home. To ensure a somewhat normal existence, we came to the conclusion that we needed to have our own time to relax with our own species, which brought about the existence of our kennel. From the very first Pug (a sweet pet) we quickly evolved into the quest of raising the quality of Canadian Pugs. To effect a meaningful change we needed to establish a strong Jimary breeding line which incorporated the value of selection based on the Canadian Pug Standard. As with any life changing (breeder) endeavor that is to have some measure of success, you must begin with a dream and strive to steadfastly adhere to the basic fundamentals of genetics. For over twenty years Jimary Perm. Reg'd. has strived and toiled with many encouraging accomplishments. As with anything related to genetics, we also experienced many discouraging experiments.
