Welcome to
Cedarwinds Kennel
The Kennel
Cedarwinds Kennel is a family run kennel located in the northeast Nebraska countryside. The kennel is heated and cooled and my dogs have unlimited access to spacious outdoor runs and daily use of our large exercise pens. Puppies need fresh air and sunshine as well as lots of room to run. At Cedarwinds, the puppies spend as much time as possible outdoors, weather permitting.
The Exercise Pens
My adult dogs have 24-hour access to large exercise pens where they dig in their dens. The mothers with puppies are allowed to roam free around my place several times each day, getting plenty of exercise and a much deserved break from caring for her puppies. My dogs are fed Science Diet, Iams, and Eukenuba.
The Change of Seasons at Cedarwinds
Summer and Fall
Winter time can be especially challenging here. We use a snow-blower where possible and a lot
of old-fashioned scooping to clean out all the kennels. The Huskies love the snow and the cold temperatures. It can get down to 20-40 below here, but normal winter temps range from 0-30
degrees. Summer time temperatures range from 85-95, but we've been known to reach 107 degrees
or higher.

The Horse Barn now sits empty as I no longer raise Quarter Horse Paints. The Sunsets
are breath-taking out here.
It is my intent to place only healthy puppies. If your puppy proves to be genetically unsound, then the puppy would need to be brought or shipped back to Cedarwinds so that he/she can be replaced with a healthy puppy. If you prefer to keep your puppy, then you may be reimbursed for medical costs UP TO THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PUPPY. Health issues that buyer was made aware of prior to taking possession, will not be covered. Shipping charges are non-refundable. Medical costs without prior approval and in excess of the purchase price will be the responsibility of the owner.
Although I can tell you the size of the parents, I do not guarantee what size the puppy will be when he/she grows up. If you purchased a puppy with full breeding rights, you were given the "best possible candidate" from the litter for breeding. I do not, however, guarantee fertility.
The puppy MUST be inspected by a veterinarian within 3 days of receipt (Sunday's excluded), and the "Initial Puppy Exam Report," which will be included in the paperwork you receive with the puppy, MUST be signed by the buyer and by the attending veterinarian at the initial exam, and a copy MUST be returned to me within 2 weeks of receipt of your puppy, or the health guarantee is null and void.
Buyer must provide seller with veterinary records and notes, test results, bills, and if applicable, X-rays, in order for any charges to be considered. No charges will be considered if the health issue is not a proven genetic disorder. Seller has the right to a second opinion with a veterinarian who is unassociated with buyer's veterinarian.
This health guarantee is non-transferable. This contract is entered into between buyer and seller in Cedar County, in the state of Nebraska, and is the entire agreement. Nothing is implied.
