Milvest kennel is runned by me, Maria Näslund and my husband Stefan. We live in a little village called Rosvik, way up in the North of Sweden, with our three sons - and Wheaten terriers of course.

I'm trained as ring secretary and work at shows around the county. I'm also webmaster for Övre Norra Terrier Club. Stefan is engaged within the mental sector at the local Working-dog Club.

We like to participate in dog shows which we think is pleasant affairs where we meet a lot of nice people with the same interest as one self. We also train some obediance and Stefan runs a little bit of agility. We think that fysical as well as mental training is important for our dogs well-being.

When we first decided to get a dog and found the Irish Softcoated Wheaten Terrier - we were stuck! These cosy dogs with wonderful temperament and soft and silky coat was just what we where looking for.

Our first wheaten is named Isa and we brought her home in November of the year 2000. She's a really good girl with a big will of her own. She's the mother of Milvest's A-litter.

Following autumn it was time for our next family member. A male this time that we picked up from kennel Mac Dara in Nybro. Totte as we call him, has developed into a nice looking gentlemen that just loves to work. He's the father of Milvest A-litter.

In August 2002 our kennel prefix Milvest was registered by the FCI. The name came out of a word puzzle from the first letter in the names of all our family members.

The 12th of March 2004 our litter A was born, three males and two females. They have all grown up and lives as pleasant familydogs. Some of them can be seen in various competition arenas.

In the summer of 2005 it was time again. Stefan went over to kennel Wheaten Darling and collected our Czech princess Nova. She's a wonderful, social and devoted but she can also be a real handful!

New Years day of 2007 a litter was born at kennel Geijes in Finland and from there comes our Zelda. She's a really cozy girl who loves to cuddle, but who also has a lot of engine.

The 12th of August 2007 Milvest B litter was born, 2 males and 3 females. Parents to the litter is our Nova and Gladövik's Boy.

The 9th of December 2008 it was time for puppies again and our C-litter was born, 3 males and 5 bitches. Parents of this litter is Nova and Ballysax Biaggi.

Our ambition is to breed sound, healthy and mentaly stable dogs in home environment - true to the Irish type and the FCI standard. We started with mixed lines, but because of the occurrence of diseases in these blood lines, we decided to continue our breeding strictly within the pure Irish lines.
