This pup going is going to make someone very happy

Its only a few months ago, I was concerned that I may have missed the opportunity to cover my top gundog who is now 6 years old "Russlayne Bracken of Northglen" aka Poppy, she is such a lean fit dog it was difficult to know she was pregnant until the 6th week. Then on the 15th June she surprised us all giving birth to 10 pups, 7 bitches & 3 dogs.

She has been an excellent mum, very chilled when we have visitors, the pups and mum have been in the home, in the kennel, out in the garden, picked up and put down hundreds of times by large adults, small adults, large children and very little children, they have experienced traffic noise, the hoover, excellent weather, poor weather, a variety of surfaces and more recently had the whole 1 acre garden to explore.

The all went to the vet for an inspection this morning and not one of them was travel sick!

The burden of some many pups, has its consequences on mum, such that we started weaning early at 4 weeks, that largest pup is now 3kg(just eaten) at 6 weeks. It would have been a little embarrassing to show mum off 10 days ago, look liked a malnourished bag of bones. Thankfully a diet of puppy food, corn oil and fish the recovery has been amazing, I have even started training her again, so hopefully we can build some stamina back quickly. She is certainly keen enough after a long break .

This was a repeat mating, not only because of proven working ability and a certified health history, the previous litter of 8 in 2012 all sold within 6 weeks and we have 8 very happy Labrador owners after 2 years, who have not experienced any serious health issues and all have adorable companions.

We have had tremendous interest again with this mating and only have one yellow dog pup to sell after 6 weeks.

We are one of a few Kennel Club Assured Breeders, who subscribe to breeders code, and have been independently inspected to ensure our breeding stock is healthy, our facilities are of an excellent standard, we have documention covering buyer assessment, health, working ability, registration, training, vaccinations, worming, socialisation, grooming, diet, exercise, 24 hour service, contracts, warranties, free insurance to make sure will deliver better results than most other breeders.

We are still learning and hope to improve on this service, but the fact we are finding suitable homes across Europe and here in the UK gives us confidence we are on the right rack.

We have pre sold more pups this year than in any previous year, and looking forward to hearing how they progress.
