Meiko Kai
Please meet our gorgeous girl Hoekema Homestead Meiko Kai.
She has displayed from a very early age an astounding calm and sweet natured demeanor that I have completely fallen in love with. She is an old soul with a puppy heart. Her disposition is profoundly Golden Retriever in all the best ways possible. She is my shadow of the pack and always under my hand. Her smile lights up any room. My 'smiles for miles' girl. She is queen of the pack and plays a different role with each of the dogs here. 65 lbs. 21 in. light in color and has smooth silky coat. Her pups she has brought to many lucky families have all been nothing short of exceptional. I am honored to have her here in my program.

Isla Nae
This is our beautiful, elegant, sweet as pie girl, Hoekema Homestead Isla Nae.
Isla is extraordinary in every way possible. She is extremely tuned in to the people around here, aware of where she needs to be and who she needs to tend to. She is calm and gentle and beyond eager to please. She is my ‘lovely’ one in personality and good looks. She is 65 lbs. 22 in. her coat is long, thick, curly and has the perfect tinge of honey coloring. She has passed her structural evaluation with top notch results by world-renowned AKC judge and structural specialist. She has displayed the sweetest demeanor you could ever ask for in any dog. She comes from exceptional European lineage that has been clear of any genetic issues for multiple generations past. Her pups have displayed emotional support/service dog qualities. Many of them are pursuing this field with 2 pups in training currently to be future service prospect dogs. I have no doubt each of her pups will go on to change the world.

displayed a quick early eager to please personality and is always looking for guidance in whatever she can
do next. She has also passed her structural evaluation by a world-renowned AKC Judge and structural specialist and
was prime pick of her litter. Light in coloring with a slight beige tint to her smooth silky coat. She is my smallest and most petite girl sitting at 63 lbs. 21 in. She has brought us 1 litter of pups so far that were as close to perfection as they come. These pups have also shown emotional support/service dog qualities.

Neema Zae
Meet Hoekema Homestead Neema Zae.
Pronounced *Neigh-Ma*
Neema means Grace in Swahili.
Grace - elegance and smooth refined movement. A thoughtful way of behaving. Neema brings in new lines for us here. Her parents were imported from Serbia and the Ukraine with excellent health scores and strong and solid wide structure.
Both parents have heart melting personalities that are already shining through bright through our darling little Neema. She is keen to follow the lead of the other dogs here and is learning quickly to be a calm collected solid part of our pack. She is 21 in. and 63 lbs. Her coat is very light in color and is coming in thick and dense. Her structure is blocky, sound and has smooth perfect muscular movement. I am hopeful she will bring a bit more size to some of our pups here in the future.
I have extremely high hopes for this girl that she will be a shining star in our program here in the future.

Anya Bae

Meet our latest addition
Hoekema Homestead Anya Bae - also meaning 'Grace' but in Russian.
Her name, but also herself being linked to her half sister Neema.
This little girl is as sweet as it comes. I fell for her personality from the very beginning. She is the first pup I have raised here from the beginning within my program that I am able to hold back and hopefully enter our breeding program in the future. She is a Leia pup that comes from lines not related to my Tonka boy here so I am able to breed her back to him one day down the road. She carries lines from Serbia and the Ukraine. Anya has a very rich pedigree with amazing top notch health scores and impressive longevity. She is a rising star already and I have no doubt she will compliment our program here beautifully.

Welcome to our pack little one!
