Nakita/Atikan

Nakita/Atikan is a North Ayrshire Council licensed dog breeder based in Dalry, listed for the Miniature American Shepherd. Its presentation also describes a breeding programme centred on Miniature Dachshunds, including long-haired, smooth-haired and wire-haired coats. The breeding dogs are health tested and live as family pets in the home. Puppies are brought up in a clean, comfortable household setting, with early socialisation and the beginnings of toilet training. Before leaving, they receive veterinary checks, microchipping, vaccination, regular worming and nail care, KC registration and a quality diet. The breeder offers lifelong support to puppy families. Its dogs are shown competitively, with top-three results at Crufts in 2024 and several qualifications for the 2025 event. Stud services are also available, alongside guidance for novice breeders on choosing a stud, mating and whelping.
