🐾 Welcome to ShipleyDax
Little dogs capable of big adventures
At ShipleyDax, we are dedicated to producing versatile, well-balanced puppies that grow into happy, confident family pets. Our focus is on health, temperament, and suitability for family life — creating little dogs capable of big adventures.
I am a 5⭐ Local Authority licensed breeder with over 15 years of experience in breeding, rearing, and carefully matching puppies to the right families. All of our dogs live and share our home with us and are raised in a loving, enriched family environment — never kennelled.
Dog welfare is at the heart of everything I do. I breed on a small, responsible scale, with every pairing carefully planned to promote sound health, stable temperaments, and excellent quality of life. Puppies are raised using early neurological stimulation and age-appropriate socialisation, with exposure to everyday household sights, sounds, and experiences to help them grow into confident, well-adjusted companions.
I have recently embarked on, and am due to complete, an Ofqual-regulated Qualification in Dog Breeding and Litter Socialisation, making me an officially qualified dog breeder. This formal qualification, combined with my extensive hands-on experience, ensures each puppy receives the very best start in life.

🐶 Our puppies
A lifetime commitment starts with the right match. Puppies are not placed on a first-come, first-served basis — the right home always comes first. I take great care in matching each puppy to the lifestyle, experience, and expectations of their future family.
All puppies leave us:
• Vet checked
• Microchipped
• Up-to-date with worming and flea prevention
• With vaccination guidance (or age-appropriate vaccinations)
• With a puppy pack, including food, scent blanket, and an information pack
Choosing a puppy should feel exciting, reassuring, and joyful. My aim is for every ShipleyDax puppy to leave confident, well-socialised, and ready to become a cherished family member for life.
I am always happy to answer questions openly and honestly and encourage potential owners to take their time when making such an important decision.
