Joval

THE BEGINNING

Having been in Airedales since 1985, for Valeria it been a life-long love affair with the Airedale breed. John “married into” Airedales. Soon after, the JOVAL Kennel… (JOhn & VALeria)… was formed. It has been a partnership ever since.

In 2015 we added Brussels Griffons to our home and have been in love with these cute little monkeys ever since.

We are members of ABGA, the national parent club and ATCA; AKC Breeders of Merit.
