At Walk Inn Kennels, our journey is a harmonious blend of passion, artistry, and devotion to exceptional dog breeding. Led by CEO and Kiwi Artist, Rome Xvlll, who is soon to call Dubai home and whose heart remains deeply rooted in New Zealand. Born and raised amidst the captivating landscapes of this vibrant nation, Rome’s lifelong companions have been the four-legged wonders that grace our lives—dogs.
Our story began in 2020, a momentous year that marked the inception of our dream. With a canvas of experience painted by a life spent surrounded by dogs, Rome embarked on a mission to redefine dog breeding.
Our kennels proudly house a curated collection of XL, pocket, and exotic American Bullies, along with the rarest gems—the British Bulldogs. Rome’s artistic eye for detail and his genuine love for these breeds fuel our commitment to crafting not just dogs, but works of art. Every pup that graces our kennels carries the legacy of the finest bloodlines, meticulously chosen to ensure remarkable quality.
At Walk Inn Kennels, we invite you to step into our world—a world where passion and purpose converge to create companions that are not only dogs, but family members, confidantes, and cherished friends. As you explore our journey, know that each dog we raise carries a piece of our heart, and we can’t wait to share that piece with you.
Welcome to a realm where the finest breeds meet artistic endeavour, and where your search for the perfect furry addition finds its joyous end.
“Our logo is a powerful emblem that holds the soul of our brand and the memory of a beloved companion, Pablo. He was the very first American Bully pocket that I imported from the tropical shores of Hawaii to the serene landscapes of New Zealand.
Pablo was not just a dog; he was the catalyst that ignited the spark of our business, a faithful friend who stood by my side through thick and thin.
However, life sometimes takes unexpected turns, and on one fateful day, tragedy struck. I was driving my dad’s trusty Ute on the farm, manoeuvring around a corner, when, out of the blue, Pablo darted in front of the vehicle. It happened so quickly; there was no time to react.
I rushed him to the vet, each passing hour filled with anxiety, waiting for news. When the call finally came, it was the worst news one can receive. The injuries were too severe, and the only humane choice was to let Pablo go. The pain of that moment still lingers in my heart.
Our logo, now, serves as a poignant reminder of Pablo’s presence in our lives. It’s more than an emblem; it’s a tribute to his indomitable spirit and the profound impact he had on our journey. It embodies the essence of loyalty, companionship, and the unwavering bond between humans and their four-legged friends. Pablo’s legacy lives on through our brand, a constant source of inspiration and a testament to the enduring love we have for our pets and the memories they create.
In his memory, our logo stands as a symbol of our commitment to preserving the spirit of our beloved Pablo, forever etched in our hearts and our brand’s identity.”
