Judy’s experience

  • About Judy

    I am very involved in showing and have attended many shows since I started with this breed in the 90's. I strive to not only produce beautiful puppies and continue my show line, but to help promote responsible breeding in order to ensure that the Welsh Springer Spaniels will continue to thrive for generations to come.

  • What makes Judy’s program special

    I do everything I can to ensure my puppies have everything they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs. Each dog that I breed has been carefully selected, keeping in mind their health, temperament, pedigree, and many other factors. In my breeding program, good health and temperament are essential, cuteness is guaranteed, and lots of love is always included.

More about Judy

  • Why Judy started breeding

    I went to a dog show in 1994 and was introduced to some amazing Welsh Springers through Marion Daniel, the breeder behind Truepenny. After several trips to watch Marion and her dogs at shows, I got my first Welshie from her. For the last twenty, years Marion and I have spent many hours talking about Welsh Springers, collaborating on possible litters, and traveling in the car together to go to locations of planned breedings and dog shows. It has been an amazing journey together!
