Blottie will be 5 years old on the 24th April. We decided not to breed from her on her last heat, due to things being a bit up in the air with Covid 19 spreading. With the retrictions now, you would be unable to visit our premises, and personally, I don't think you should be buying a pup unless you can visit the premises it is being bred in, meeting the pup's Mum in person. Puppy farms must be having a field day at the moment, flogging pups to the unsuspecting public. The kennel club advise that viewing is okay to be done electronically. Imagine how easy that can be set up to look nothing like the reality the pup has really been brought up in. We hope to have Blottie back on heat around October time, and all going well, we will pair her up with Ernest again, as they had such a beautiful litter of ten pups together December 2017.

You definitely made the right decision! 4/20/2020 11:24:14 am
A very responsible decision to make. It really worries me how many people are looking to get a puppy because they're at home more at the moment. What's going to happen with all these dogs when people go back to work?! The unscrupulous breeders are going to make a fortune.

“Humans are aware of very little, it seems to me, the artificial brainy side of life, the worries and bills and the mechanisms of jobs, the doltish psychologies we've placed over our lives like a stencil. A dog keeps his life simple and unadorned.” Brad Watson, Last Days of the Dog-Men: Stories
