We have been involved in dogs for over thirty years, starting with a crossbreed and a rescued dog. We were introduced to obedience and acquired our first obedience dog, a Border Collie called Bryn. Bryn went on to excel in agility and flyball and was soon joined by our first Polish Lowland Sheepdog, Tizzie.

It was at an agility competition about four years ago that we saw our first Spanish Water Dogs and were very impressed by their speed and agility. This led to a lot of research before we acquired our bitch, Squiffy. We now have two Polish Lowlands, two Spanish Water Dogs and of course, our veteran Border Collie.

ESTRELLANA
Our first litter of Spanish Water Dogs was born at the beginning of 2003 and is the first litter to carry the affix and hence forms the foundation of my line.

BREEDING
My aim is to produce quality puppies that are typical of breed, displaying the characteristic working attributes of their ancestors from Spain. By careful selection of mates I hope to combine the best of the lines from Southern Spain with those from the north. Puppies will occasionally be available but will be sold first and foremost as family pets. Puppies will not be sold as 'working dogs' or 'show quality' but any participation in these fields will be encouraged. Each puppy will go with a contract to safeguard its future and any restrictions on use for breeding may be lifted provided the owner satifies certain criteria.
