I am a small hobby breeder, with over 30 years experience. Always having had dogs around from a young child. After the children arrived I had my own first 2 labradors the bug hit and I got into show type cocker spaniels in the mid 90's. Which I have shown with some success. I also have working type labradors. Both breeds have fantastic characters, what's not to fall in love with! Bred for type and temperament.
I also have 3 british shorthair cats, just beautiful lap cats. They get along with the dogs and are a very laid back and chilled breed.
