Old fashioned KC springer at stud

County / Town: Worcestershire

Description

please see updated advert. 



‘Tapenhall Juniper Jed’ is a DNA health tested old traditional style English Springer Spaniel. He is proven and recently had a litter of 8 and a litter of 9 all with lovely markings. A few of his offspring can be seen. He is producing strong, biddable puppies. 

Jed is my all rounder used for beating, picking up, dogging in and sitting on peg. He knows the difference for each job and loves each job. He is steady when beating, quiet on peg and an amazing retriever. He is my go to dog for any shoot day and is a joy to work, he’s a hard hunter and powerful with a wonderful game sense. We are out multiple times a week beating and picking up over several different estates. 

He is an old traditional style springer that’s about 25kg and the size of a small Labrador. Whilst he is a hard worker, he is incredibly loyal and has an amazing temperament. He is a soft teddy bear who loves a cuddle especially after a hard days work.

🐶 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.

🧠 Final Thought

Buying a gun dog is your responsibility. Do your homework on both the breed and the breeder. Make sure your decision is informed, confident, and in the best interest of the dog.
