I had my first personal encounter with the Siberian Husky in 1992 and was immediately captivated by his attractive appearance.
It was "love" at first sight....I wanted to know everything there was to know about the breed.
Since the internet was not available in the early nineties, I naturally searched and read all the existing newspaper articles and books.
In 1994 I bought my first Siberian Husky, from a local breeding kennel, his name was Sheriff. At that time I had no show or breeding ambitions. It was thanks to Sheriff that I was introduced to this wonderful breed and gained personal experience. It made me fall even more in love with the Siberian Husky and the magical world of shows. I made many friends and acquaintances.
In 1997, Azeem joined our pack, a very spectacular light red and white male (sired by Big Foot and Nordica).
He was my first show dog and we achieved fantastic results with him, results I had never dreamed of. We won several Best in Show titles together, Inter and he was champion of several countries.He had 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and Top 1 husky.
Azeem's puppies later followed in his footsteps, and his offspring also included several successful show dogs.

In 2005 Kay came to us from abroad from Wolf Point kennel, she was a very beautiful dog with beautiful movements. Her grandfather was a show dog Ch.Innisfree Ice T.
Kay was outstanding in both her show and breeding career. His offspring have lived almost all over the world (South Africa, Sweden, England, Austria, Romania and Brazil) I will be forever grateful to his breeder Gusti for giving Kay to me.
Over the years, the pack expanded and later the Stamiel Siberian Husky Kennel was formed, which is now run by my partner Zsolt and me.
In 2019 we imported from Jana Muranska's kennel our bitch Ch.Vinyamar's Naturally Yours "Soi", who is a very special and rare bitch of a very special and rare bloodline (KONTOKI), a real curiosity. She has a fantastic character, wonderful anatomy and a movement of excellence, which is proven by her show results.

In 2020, we bought a cant from one of the most successful husky kennels in Europe, Ch.Winter Melody Bad Like My Dad "Zima", from our dear friends Ewa and José Luis.
Zima is a unique character, a confident strong male, the leader of our pack, proud and brave, but at the same time a very kind and gentle guy, who is the best friend and volunteer babysitter for young dogs.
Zima has already achieved great success. He is one of the most successful dogs in Europe. He is still young and I think he has a bright future ahead of him. She will soon start her breeding career.
Zima is a champion of several countries and holds several Best In Show titles. In 2021, she was second at the World Show in Brno, where she was shown by her breeder Ewa.
In the spring of 2021 Soi's first litter was born, a very impressive Karnovanda line colt out of Ch.Icilly's Broken Arrow "Cooper". He is the only member of the litter born to Stamiel Lucky Lucky Lucky Lucky Me! "Lucky",who is in our pack and we are very proud of him.

He is an excellent representative of Lucky's breed. He loves to show, but is happy to do any task and is a real pleasure to have in the ring and in the kennel. He is still young, starting his show career at the end of summer 2022, but he has already achieved outstanding results and we are very proud of him. He has a lovely temperament and is a very happy boy.

In 2021 we will bring another bitch also from Ewa and José Luis. Ch.Winter Melody If Looks Could Kill "Beasty" who is a really pretty young husky lady with a lovely temperament. Beasty is also a successful show dog.
We work with a small number of dogs, but with lines from the most successful kennels in the world, including some real curiosities (Kontoki's, Karnovanda's, Kristari's).
Our dogs live with us from one to the other in our house, but we also have a separate living area for them inside the house, which provides them with ideal conditions (air-conditioned room, playground, private grooming, etc.).
We place great emphasis on the socialisation of puppies born with us.
In addition to type, temperament and lineage, health is an important aspect of breeding.

Our dogs achieve outstanding results in beauty shows both internationally and nationally, but in addition to beauty, it is equally important for a breeder that the dog is also good in function.
Our aim is to produce well-balanced, well-tempered Siberian Huskies with good looks and function in the Stamiel kennel, as the breeder's aim is to breed the breed.
Results and Plans of Recent Years
In recent years, many joyful and defining events have enriched the history of our kennel.
In 2023, the litter from Soi and Zima was born, from which we kept our girl Pinky (Stamiel Wish Upon A Star). It is a great joy for us that she has already achieved outstanding success at a young age, holding multiple Junior Best in Show titles. She also placed third in the Junior Class at the European Dog Show. She is a very stylish, harmoniously built dog who truly represents our breeding vision.
In 2024, our pack was enriched by another special dog: Shelby (Theseus De Santgrial) arrived from Spain, from Santgrial Kennel, carrying a strong Karnovanda bloodline. Shelby is a multiple champion and Junior Best in Show winner, and she is currently at the beginning of her adult career. We have high hopes for her both in the show ring and in our breeding program.

We are planning a litter for spring 2026, which is being preceded by thorough preparation and careful consideration. Our goal is for this pairing to reflect everything we look for in the breed — type, excellent anatomical structure, stable temperament, correct character, and health.
Our kennel philosophy has remained unchanged over the years: we continue to work with small numbers, consciously and with great responsibility, always keeping in mind the preservation and improvement of the breed’s values.
We believe that the Siberian Husky is not only a beautiful show dog, but also a special, functional breed with a unique character that deserves respect and dedication.
We are proud of the journey we have taken so far and grateful to all the friends, breeders, and owners who are part of our kennel’s story.
