Gilcoru Briards started in 1978
and we have loved the breed eversince.
We have bred more champions than anyone in this country and are very proud of them all.

Our dogs are hip scored and CSNB eye tested.
All the dogs we have tested are free from CSNB.
Gilcoru Beagles started in 1995
Through my son, Luke, they are lovely little people and get on so well with the Briards.
We are currently showing Gilcoru Stifler and his sons Gilcoru Mimime and Gilcoru Prince Charming.

Proof of the temprement and quality of our dogs is owners have come back again and again for a Gilcoru puppy.
