BEARUNOFF KENNELS 
Karelian Bear Dogs
& Alaskan Bear Dogs

Our Karelians and Alaskan Bear Dogs are hunting dogs that are intelligent, brave, and healthy, and so are their offspring.  They are raised in a healthy Alaskan environment along with horses and other livestock animals.  We keep in contact with all our previous pup owners so we can document the pups' growth and development.  We want to ensure that we are breeding the very best Karelians and Alaskan Bear Dogs.

Meet The Owner

Susan Braden and her husband Rollin are avid outdoor enthusiasts and have lived in Alaska since 1965. We began using Karelian's for bear protection while horseback riding and for hunting trips in the backcountry. Our kennel began with Bearunoff, (REL/KBD) a dog that meets our every outdoor need, is a great family dog and is more than capable of keeping bears at bay. Because of Bearunoff's incredible loyalty and the demand for bear protection, Bearunoff Kennels was created. Bearunoff has sired consistent temperament and highly intelligent bear dogs giving our kennel the reputation of producing dogs with instinctive alert behavior, keen sense for blood tracking wounded animals and competent large game encounter.
