Recherche Kennels - Bichons

Recherche Bichons are professional breeders and trainers of Bichon Frises. Recherche Bichons is owned by Jamel & Charity Hamka, who for many years have been dedicated to becoming the most professional breeders and trainers in the country. Since 2004, Jamel and Charity, and their staff at Recherche Kennels has bred and trained more than 600 puppies.

Recherche Bichons is located on a 33-acre property in Statesville, NC. The property contains a state-of-the-art 19,500 square foot training and care facility that is dedicated just for the puppies. These facilities allow the pups to be brought up in a healthy and stimulating environment, with full access to on-staff animal care technicians and trainers. In addition, Recherche Bichons includes a large number of outdoor areas, including open fields, an on-site lake, trails and much more, all of which is used in the care and training of each Recherche puppy.

One of the hallmark features of Recherche Bichons is our extensive Puppy Training Institute, where each puppy is enrolled in one of our many training programs. These programs give the puppies hundreds of hours of training in areas such as Obedience training, House training, Socialization, and Outside training. This training sets us apart and is the most extensive available anywhere.
