Our dogs

Five generations, one kitchen

Every bitch we have bred from descends from Meg, who came to us from Cumbria in 2010. We have never had more than four adult dogs at home. They all live in the house, sleep on the landing and come on holiday with us.

Each dog has its own page. It lists its registered name and titles, RKC registration number, size, every health result with its date and the scheme or lab that issued it, its COI, show and working record, and a three-generation pedigree. You can check our dogs' BVA and DNA results on the Royal Kennel Club's Health Test Results Finder by searching their registered names.
