Petitchien's Mr Melodrama, 1 CC & BOB

I live with my young family on a mountain in the heart of Snowdonia, UK. I exhibit regularly in the UK and sometimes Ireland, and have had some success with my breeding, including two Junior Champions, a CACIB winner, a RCC and Several Green Stars last year. This year has started well with good results at Crufts and Whelks, a Canadian Champion, Top Male Puppy in Norway, and Best Of Breed and DCC at SKC.

My dogs all live indoors and are first and foremost my family pets - all dogs have current Patella certificates and are PRA checked clear. I am a Kennel Club Accredited Breeder.
