Paddington comes from a lineage of remarkable working spaniels with proven versatility. His immediate family includes accomplished gundogs and therapy dogs but also some amazing family dogs. Multiple generations of purpose-bred working spaniels have contributed to his natural abilities and versatile skill set. His bloodline consistently produces dogs that excel across various working disciplines, making him an outstanding choice for those looking to maintain or enhance working traits in their lines, but also those who want an exceptional home-life temperament.

Pedigree details available upon request. Paddington is not KC registered but has a lot of KC in his bloodline. He is an incredible example of the breed, and we can happily provide all of his generational history, in more depth than most.

PROVEN STUD RECORD

Paddington has sired multiple successful litters at this stage. All of his offspring have inherited his beautiful markings, excellent temperament, and working ability. He is particularly good with nervous and maiden bitches, being respectful and experienced.

Full transparency is important to us, so all of Paddington's health certifications and pedigree documentation are available for your review. We maintain an extensive collection of photographs showing his previous offspring, which we're happy to share upon request.

STUD DETAILS

Based in Devon EX24. The stud service includes two supervised matings spaced approximately 24-48 hours apart for optimal timing. Should your bitch not conceive, we gladly offer a complimentary repeat service during her next season.

Payment is due following the first successful tie.

For select breeding partnerships, we're open to discussing the possibility of receiving a puppy from the litter instead of the standard stud fee - this can be arranged prior to breeding depending on anticipated litter size and breeding objectives.

For any inquiries or to discuss breeding plans, please contact us directly via phone or email. Thank you in advance!
