We are delighted to announce our new Champion Norraysha Power Point "Dottie" who gained her Sh Ch title at Windsor Champ Show. Congratulations and many thanks to Keri for all her hard work.
Demon is sitting on 3RCC's.
A planned repeat mating has resulted in 2 very promising babies. Who will join Dottie Demon and Olivia in the show ring soon.
As we begin a new year Olivia our turbo charged black has showed great promise winning 3 puppy bitch classes at Champ shows and 2 respectable 2nds and she has only attended 5 shows..
In 2009 we became Kennel Club Accredited Breeders and are pleased to say that all our dogs were eye tested clear February 2010 under the KC/BVA eye scheme which now includes Gonioscopy.

Kennel Runs

Large spacious runs were the priority when we moved to the country. The renovation of the house fortunately is nearing completion.

exercise area for the dogs

The paddock and orchard area are for the dogs to have free exercise during the day.
Whilst we enjoy the showing and social side attached to this we are more concerned with the care and well being of our delightful dogs. Our move to the country was with our dogs in mind.
Whilst we have had a rough time living in a renovation project the dogs have thrived in this environment. Running free, rolling frequently chasing the birds of which there are many and perfecting their climbing skills.
We no longer need to climb to get the apples off the tree's in the orchard we just let the spaniels free. Its a regular occurrence to send visitors away with a bag of freshly picked apples albeit with teeth marks in!

The recent sudden snowfall was very much enjoyed by all "The Norraysha Gang"

Our family interest in Americans began many years ago when we re homed rescue bitch called Paige .We became besotted with the breed and over the years acquired more.
Culminating with our move to the country to give our much loved pets the best possible environment possible.
Much success followed and the rest became history.
All our dogs are health screened annually for the known inherited defects under the KC/BVA eye scheme.
Currently we are showing 3 dogs .
Elliot and Euan have now retired from the show ring whilst we concentrate on Euan's son Norraysha Power Demon and his daughter Norraysha Power Point being shown by Keri Jones (Merikee) .
Moonmist Charlie "Finn" is jointly owned with Debbie Coles.
Our kennel star Euan, a black dog has had a phenomenal year becoming our first Show Champion in only 3 months.Winning 4 CC's, 3 BOB's plus 4 RCC's and 1 RBOB.
We are fortunate to live with our dogs in the country with nearly two acres of land.
Our puppies are lavishly home reared underfoot in the kitchen enabling them to become accustomed to a busy noisy household. They leave to go to their new homes well adjusted happy confident puppies. All are vet checked vaccinated and micro chipped prior to leaving us.All leave with a contract of sale and restrictions on future breeding.
All puppies are bred with care and raised with kindness in the home.
