Description

Thorn had a gorgeous litter of 8 healthy puppies born on 10th June. Due to having a boy heavy litter, we have 1 cracking liver and white boy available for well established working lines. 
Puppies are ready to for their new homes at 8 weeks old on the 5th August. 

Thorn is your typical working springer spaniel immensely loving strong work drive and is a a member of my picking up team on a large commercial estate. Yet switches off and calm when not working. She has a massive willingness to please and is great with children.

FTCh Bucklawren Bonus is biddable and honest and has proven his worth as a Field Trial winning dog. He is a very affectionate dog who’s personality and pedigree compliments that of Thorn.

Both parents are DNA test clear for AMS, PRA (cord1), Fucosidosis and PFK. 

We are a 5* licensed breeder with the Dorset council ensuring the health and welfare of the pups is paramount at all stages of development. We have been breeding gundog for both working and pet homes for the last 12 The puppies are cared for in a home environment and will be well socialized with Children insuring they will be ready for a variety of new homes.
The puppies will be weaned onto Nutriments raw puppy food, giving them the very best nutritional start and will come home with a supply of this.
Puppies will be wormed at 2,5 and 8 weeks with Panacur and will be flea treated before leaving.
Puppies will go to their new homes with the following.
✅ KC Papers
✅ Veterinary Health Check Certificate
✅ 5 Weeks Insurance
✅ Puppy Contract
✅ Microchipped
✅ Tails docked and docking certificate
✅ Wormed
✅ Treated for Fleas

A deposit will be required to secure a puppy from the litter due to high demand and we provide a contract of sale once puppy viewing has taken place.

🐶 Buyer’s Checklist for Gun Dogs

Whether you’re buying, selling, or studding a dog, it’s essential to take the right steps to protect yourself—and the animals involved.

  • Always meet the dog in person at the breeder’s home or kennel—never agree to buy without seeing them first.
  • Ask to see the puppies with their Dam (mother), and the Sire (father) if available.
  • Verify all paperwork:
    • Kennel Club (KC) registration number
    • Date of birth
    • Health screening results
  • Prepare questions to ask the breeder. Some helpful ones include:
    • Did you breed the dog(s) yourself?
    • Can I see where they were bred and raised?
    • How old is the Dam, and how many litters has she had?
    • Was the birth natural or via C-section?
    • Are there any known health issues?
    • Can I see documentation for both Dam and Sire?
    • Will the puppy be vaccinated and wormed before purchase?

  • If something feels off, walk away. Don’t ignore red flags.
  • Ask for advice from a trusted third party if you’re unsure.
  • Take your time. This is a big decision—don’t rush it.

  • Puppies should appear happy, healthy, clean, and curious.
  • You should be allowed to see and handle all puppies in the litter, not just the one you're considering.
  • Never buy a puppy younger than 8 weeks old.
  • Avoid any puppies that show signs of illness—e.g. runny eyes, weakness, or diarrhoea.

  • Is the whelping pen clean?
  • Do the dogs have access to fresh water, clean food, and adequate space?
  • The living conditions can say a lot about the breeder’s standards.

  • Ensure you receive the KC registration form and all relevant documents at the time of payment.
  • Write up a simple contract to protect both buyer and seller—especially important in case circumstances change.
  • Never agree to buy a puppy in a car park or public place. Always go to the breeder's premises.
