WhiteCliff Kennels is located in Worland, Wyoming. Our journey with the Cirneco Dell'Etna began in 2005 or 2006 when we first encountered the breed at Rockin' Heart Ranch and fell completely in love. From that first meeting the breed never left our hearts.
Nearly two decades later, in 2023, we brought home our first Cirneco — and everything we had admired from a distance became our daily reality. Their intelligence, their affection, their ancient spirit — it was everything we had hoped for and more. WhiteCliff Kennels grew from that love.
Our breeding program is built on health, temperament, and conformation — producing dogs that are equally at home in the show ring, on a performance course, or curled up beside you on the sofa. Every litter is planned with intention and every puppy is raised underfoot as part of our family.
Our Commitments
Health
All breeding stock is health tested to breed-recommended protocols before any pairing is considered.
Conformation
Our dogs are bred to the AKC and FCI standard and actively shown at regional and national level.
Temperament
Sound, stable temperament is equally important to us as physical structure. We breed for the whole dog.
Lifelong Support
If we have placed a puppy with you, we will remain a resource for you for the life of your dog — no exceptions.
No Questions Asked Returns
Any dog we breed can come back to us at any time, for any reason, no questions asked. Our dogs never end up in rescue.
Honest Placement
We will always tell a prospective owner if this breed is not the right fit. The dog's wellbeing comes first, always.
