About us

Hello my name is Kornelia Geldrich and my husband Michael and I purchased what was formally Sentinel Kennels 

​

After getting married we moved to Rossland BC where we decided to start a family , We had three wonderful children Derek, Christel and Kevin. I decided to be a stay at home Mom and started an in home family Day care â€‹,Kornelia's Family Day Care. I was registered with Fair in Trail and ran my Day Care for 27 years. I have always loved animals and we had a wide variety of pets. Cats, birds, bunnies, turtles, hamsters, hedge hogs and of course dogs. I raise rough and smooth collies. My passion besides my grandchildren. Hayden, Cohen, Lane, Chasey and Lily is a love of  raising collies. I love doing performance with them. We do Rally, Agility, Nose work and Confirmation in the Show ring.  My dogs have earned many titles and I believe strongly in positive training.  I have taken many classes and training seminars locally.

​

It was time to move out of Rossland due to my husbands disability and the snow load being just to much to manage.  I have always had a strong bond and love for animals, especially dogs. I use the same philosophies with dogs as I did with children. I do not allow practicing of unwanted behaviours such as barking relentlessly at another dog making them feel intimated. I never make a dog feel trapped when they are uncomfortable. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I only do individual care and do not mix client dogs. Positive reinforcement is our motto.

​

Thank you for trusting me with your family member
