The Schimmelpfeng Kennel was founded in 1990, but got its first Swiss White Shepherd in 1987. Lia Segadas Vianna, owner of the Kennel, started her breeding after buying a female in Rio de Janeiro to protect her two daughters.

        First looking for a German shepherd, that was shown as an excellent guard and companion, fell in love with a huge female dog completely white. Since that moment, Gaia became the reason of all her passion. At that time, the race was known as Canadian Shepherd, Alsatian and other names because it wasn’t recognized by the FCI (main organization of world dog studies). The most important is that she completely fell in love with that breeding.

The first litter was born in 1989 in Rio de Janeiro, and, in 1992, Lia and the Kennel established in Petrópolis (downtown- Barão do Rio Branco Av.), where she kept the kennel until 1999, when she moved to a small farm with an area of 12,000 m2 in Pedro do Rio ( a district near Itaipava, Petrópolis)

She made an option for a different place, because she had 26 dogs and it was necessary a bigger place. Nowadays, after some losses due to the age, the Schimmelpfeng Kennel, has 06 males and 16 females.
