We are a small kennel, situated in the market town of Beverley, East Yorkshire. We strive to breed sound Boxers, in temperament, health and type.
I hold RECOGNISED qualifications in canine behaviour, husbandry, genetics, grooming, and canine science, etc. We are Founder Memebers of the Kennel Club Accredited Breeder Scheme, we are also qualified to microchip. I am currently serving on the committee of the Northern Boxer Club.

All our litters are planned, and infrequent, we breed with integrity, and care, we have followed a very careful breeding programme over the years, which has rewarded us with moderate, and consistent success both in, and out of the show ring. We have only ever bred in strict accordance with the recommendations as laid down by Boxer Breed Council, with full regard for the health and welfare of the breed as a whole, with particular attention to the welfare of our brood bitches, we do not breed 'back to back', as well as the welfare of our stud dogs, and our puppies. As such, we have only ever bred from healthy, heart tested clear adults. Certification is freely available for all the dogs, and their names appear on the 'Boxer Heart List' which is produced by 'Boxer Quarterly', and up-dated three to four times a year. It takes time to build a good solid reputation.
ALL our dogs live happily together in the home, our stud dogs live alongside bitches, and puppies alike, as well as the family cats! we dont just SAY our dogs display sound, correct, Boxer temperaments, (which is most important we think), they really do, and have a lovely outlook on life, as well as correct conformation.
ALL our Boxers can be directly traced back to our foundation bitch 'Jasmine'. Our puppies are reared within the home, in a purpose built area, and very well socialised, they are all microchipped, and we microchip all our puppies for their new owners prior to rehoming.
We are very proud of our dogs, and their achievements speak for themselves, - although our dogs are all show dogs, first and foremost they are our companions and friends. We have bred eight Crufts qualifiers, two stud book qualifiers and a reserve CC winner.
ALL OUR BREEDING STOCK ARE FREE FROM KNOWN CARDIOMYOPATHY LINES .
All our claims can be verrified, we do not make sweeping, ambiguous statements.
