A small hobby kennel based
in Birmingham where our passion is exhibiting our dogs.
As a child we weren't in a
position to own a dog as both of my parents worked full
time. I married and along came
our family......Again a dog was not an option although a
friend of mine owned a beautiful cocker. I decided if I
ever owned a dog it would be a Cocker Spaniel.
Eventually the children
were old enough to respect a dog, and after some
research into cockers decided that was the breed for us.
Along came Poppy a Blue
Roan Bitch with the sweetest nature. I decided to try
my hand at Exemption shows,
now Companion shows. I was
hooked...
I decided I would like to
take showing a bit more seriously. I had long admired
the Charbonnel dogs I had seen, so I approached Sandy
Platt to enquire about a solid cocker.
Out of the blue I had a phone call offering me
Peggy, Charbonnel Playtime. The first time I saw her I
was smitten....she is the most beautiful girl, and a
pleasure to live with.
Peggy was to become the
foundation of our solid line, she is now a Grandmother,
passing on her sweet temperament to her children and
grandchildren.
Poppy became the
foundation of our parti-colour line and she is now Great
Grandmother to Quintavia Stars In Her Eyes and Quintavia
Star Stopper
So here we are several
years later and my love for the cocker spaniel is even
stronger.
