We are vet and MDBA accredited boutique family breeders. Our mission is to breed beautiful quality dogs who are true to type. That are sound of body and mindā€¦

Home environment

We are a generational grazier family living on a property on the outskirts of Bathurst NSW. Our dogs are both inside and outside dogs. They come for a run up the paddock, a swim in the dam.

About the Breeder

A little about us

I am Georgina. Mother of four, wife to Wade. Weā€™re business owners, farmers & Dog mad.

Why we got involved in breeding

I first fell head over heels in love ESS (English Springer Spaniels) 20 years ago when a friend Of the family had one. She was mesmerising in her beauty and worked the room like a pro. She would catch a ball, sit regally on the varandah and generally dote and be dotted on. From there, I was hooked! When itā€¦

Our special touch

Dogs need a job. Man and manā€™s best friend have been a union for more than 30,000 years. That union is embedded in our dna and how we communicate with them. I have been a passionate canine lover since I could toddle, crawling into my parents working kelpies kennels to check for puppies and falling asleep with them. ā€¦
