A little about us
I am a dog trainer, specialising in scentwork. I regularly teach classes and instruct at my dog obedience club. I compete in dog sports and judge for ANKC in Scentwork. I am passionate about Working Springer Spaniels and diversifying the breed in Australia. I imported my foundation bitch from NZ in 2024.
Why we got involved in breeding
I wanted to diversify this fantastic breed and strive to use the best imported bloodlines available. I specifically aim for well adjusted, confident, high hunt drive dogs, from the best lineage possible worldwide. They are bred to work , being a busy working breed. Please research this breed beforehand if you…
Our special touch
I do try to fit dogs with suitable owners. Each puppy has different strengths and will suit slightly different lifestyles to thrive. Happy dogs living fulfilled lives for their breed is my goal. Whether that be hunting, dog sports or professional detection roles, or a loving active family.
