We have successfully mated our youngest bitch Lanseaux Resolve (Daisy) with Field Trial Champion Darleigh Thunderbolt (Gun) from Phil Down's Amancio kennel.
The litter of two black dogs, two yellow dogs and three black bitches was born over the night of 18/19 June. They were examined by our vet on 19 June and all given a clean bill of health. The puppies are Kennel Club registered and inoculated. Photographs will be posted as they grow.
Of the parents, Gun is six years old and has a hip score of 3:3, a current clear eye certificate and has been Optigen tested clear. Full details, including his working achievements, can be found on Phil's web site at:

Daisy was three years old in July and is from our own Briwed Midnight Star Of Lanseaux (Ceri) sired by Edward Martin's Sealpin Enigma (Digby - www.gundogs.co.uk). She has a hip score of 4:4 and a current clear eye certificate. She is a sturdy animal with a good example of a double coat. Daisy is biddable and loves to retrieve, but she is also very affectionate and her offspring would be equally at home either working or curled up by the fire as a family pet.
Both dogs' extended pedigrees show Full, Field Trial and Show Champions through the generations.
We are near Ripon in North Yorkshire. If an enquiry is made by email we would appreciate the inclusion of a telephone number so we may contact you.
