Unalome (FCI)
### About the Kennel Unalome was founded in 2005 by the current owner, who acquired her first Hovawart that same year. In 2014, she obtained her third Hovawart, Grappa, with the intention of starting a breeding programme. The owner’s daughter also assists with the kennel. Located in the small town of Sława in the lubuskie region of western Poland, the kennel is registered with the FCI under the affix "Unalome FCI". The breeding approach is described as responsible, home-based, with puppies raised in the house and a clear focus on dogs that can succeed both in the show ring and in working activities. ### Breeding Dogs **Grappa (registered as ISABELLA Aldeon)** is a retired black-and-tan female born in June 2014.

Hip dysplasia (HD) is checked via X-ray and graded on the FCI scale A to E: a grade of A means no signs of hip dysplasia. Elbow dysplasia (ED) is graded 0 to 3, with a result of 0/0 meaning no changes are visible. Osteochondrosis (OCD) is tested for as a developmental joint cartilage disorder; a result of "free" or "no changes" is the desired outcome. Eye examinations are performed by a certified veterinarian to rule out inherited eye diseases (including gonioscopy if needed), and cardiac examinations confirm normal heart function. Genetic tests for degenerative myelopathy (DM) show whether the dog carries the mutation (N/N means the dog does not carry it). Thyroid function tests measure T4 levels. ZKwP mental/psychological tests are passed as a sign of balanced temperament and good cooperation with people. ### Litters and Puppies The kennel lists several litters on its website. The most recent is Litter F, born on 30 January 2026, from sire Anonymus Notus RADOS and dam MIRABELKA MOYA Unalome. Other listed litters (Miot S, Miot R, Miot M) do not have confirmed birth or expected dates listed. Puppies are raised in the home environment as part of the kennel’s responsible, home-based approach. ### Visits and Pick-up Visits to the kennel are welcome, and puppies are sold to owners in Poland and Ireland.
