Oska was bred by Helen Greaves of Icewinds Kennels in New Zealand and is the sire of our two litters and the dad of Ellie, Maddie & Bronte.  We are fortunate and honoured to have the pleasure of having Oska as part of our Malamute family. 

Oska's easy going nature and great temperament towards other dogs allowed him to fit in perfectly with our dogs at home and in the working environment.

Oska's Windchill kids Ellie, Maddie and Maple have achieved their Australian Champion titles, making a total of over 14 Champion progeny for Oska so far.

Oska is being shown occasionally, but more importantly he is having fun joining with our Malamutes and his kids in all the working activities they love to do.

Oska is part of our 2-dog Malamute team with daughter Bronte, and is our "PR" dog taking part in community events and visits.   Oska has visited the Omeo Aged Care facility and more recently was surrounded by 700 primary school children in the school's gymnasium for their Heritage week.

Oska has more than proven himself as a working dog in the fields of sledding and backpacking, and exhibits a superb working attitude.  Oska loves hiking in the bush completing his Working Pack Dog title with ease, followed by his Working Pack Dog Excellent title which he completed at the age of almost 8 years.

Oska, along with team-mate and daughter Panda, has also completed his Working Team Dog title thanks to the efforts of musher Stuart Vanderpol (left & right).  His working and show achievements have now earned him a place on the Alaskan Malamute Club, Victoria's Register of Achievement.
