Behaviour and socialisation

As a behavioural dog trainer, I know how important my role as breeder is in the personality of your pup. I only breed from dogs with good temperaments who are friendly and outgoing, fun but not wild, and responsive to training.

Health

About the Breeder

A little about us

Dogs have always been an integral part of my daily life: as a child, then as a Vet nurse, and now as an exhibitor and a Behavioural Dog Trainer. I am well known and respected in the dog world for my care of dogs and integrity dealing with others.

Why we got involved in breeding

My mother and I wanted something to do together once I left home. These days, it’s still a family affair, with my daughters and granddaughters.

Our special touch

I am totally committed to producing the dog you want to share your life with. I am always here to help.
