Our Retired dogs (Not for sale)
The dogs that started it all! Several of our current dogs are descended from the dogs shown here.
Labradors
Coco (the chocolate lab) is a calm, super friendly girl who gets on well with everyone. She’s fantastic with puppies in particular due to her limitless patience and so she’s usually the first adult dog our puppies get to interact with (once they’re old enough). Even at 11 years old, she was still playful and energetic, at times running around the fields just as well as other dogs half her age.
Barley (KC name: Fielddale Lapwing) is the mother of Genie and Willow. She’s a nicely put together dog with a nice broad head, and a dark yellow, soft double coat. Her temperament is excellent, she’s a reliable, steady dog whom all the other dogs look up to.
