Our breeds

The breeds we know best

We specialise in Golden Retrievers, Dakota Sport Retrievers and Labradors. We often have other breeds available too.

An adult golden retriever sitting on grass outdoors

Gentle, devoted and endlessly patient

Golden Retriever

The family dog by which all others are measured — kind, biddable and beautifully robust.

Typical size
Medium to large — typically 25–34kg, 51–61cm at the shoulder.
Temperament
Warm, sociable and eager to please. Superb with children and other dogs, rarely guarding, and happiest when included in family life.
A chocolate Labrador sitting on grass outdoors

Loyal, steady and wonderfully versatile

Labrador

Britain's favourite gundog — good-natured, biddable and at home in any family.

Typical size
Medium to large — typically 25–36kg, 55–62cm at the shoulder.
Temperament
Outgoing, trusting and eager to please. Exceptionally good with children and other dogs, and as happy in the field as on the sofa.
A working cocker spaniel sitting on grass outdoors

Merry, affectionate and beautifully made

Cocker Spaniel

A joyful, compact spaniel with a soft mouth and a permanently wagging tail.

Typical size
Small to medium — typically 12–15kg, 38–43cm at the shoulder.
Temperament
Cheerful, affectionate and alert. They bond closely with their family and enjoy being busy — a bored cocker will find their own entertainment.
A Dakota Sport Retriever sitting on grass outdoors

Retriever charm, spaniel spirit

Dakota Sport Retriever

Our signature cross — a Retriever × Cocker Spaniel with the best of both breeds.

Typical size
Medium — typically 14–22kg, 40–51cm at the shoulder.
Temperament
Confident, affectionate and adaptable. Retriever patience meets spaniel enthusiasm — they settle brilliantly into both country and family life.
A Goldendoodle with a soft curly coat sitting on grass outdoors

Warm-hearted, clever and softly coated

Goldendoodle

Retriever generosity wrapped in a low-shedding, softly curly coat.

Typical size
Medium to large — typically 20–30kg, 51–61cm at the shoulder.
Temperament
Gentle, playful and highly sociable. They inherit the retriever's desire to be near their people, which makes them devoted companions but poor candidates for a house left empty all day.
A small Cavapoo with a soft wavy coat sitting on grass outdoors

Sweet, sociable and softly natured

Cavapoo

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel crossed with Poodle — a real lap-sized companion.

Typical size
Small — typically 5–9kg, 25–38cm at the shoulder.
Temperament
Affectionate, gentle and eager to be with you. They make wonderfully attentive companions and are generally gracious with children and other pets.

Our breeding standards

Careful breeding, quietly done well.

Health testing, veterinary care, nutrition, socialisation and welfare are not marketing lines for us — they are the daily routine that shapes every litter we raise.

01

Health testing before every mating

Parents are health-screened and DNA-tested, and only complementary pairings are made. We discuss a puppy's parentage openly with every family.

02

Veterinary care from day one

Our vet partners assess, vaccinate, worm and microchip every puppy before they leave us.

03

Nutrition chosen for growth

Feeding is planned for steady, healthy growth rather than speed of growth, and we send each puppy home with the food they know.

04

Socialisation built into the day

Daily handling, household sounds, new surfaces and gentle visitors are part of the routine from the moment puppies are mobile.

05

Welfare shapes everything

Low numbers, careful hygiene and staff who genuinely know each dog. No puppy is treated as stock.

06

Matched, not sold, to homes

We ask honest questions about your lifestyle so we can recommend the right puppy for your family.

From our puppy owners

Families who trusted us first

The most important review of our work is the dog that arrives in your home — settled, healthy and confident.

“Chris was friendly, Pauline was great”

Jessica

“We came across the Canine club whilst looking for our puppy. The premises were very clean and well organised and Chris was knowledgeable and friendly. Our Westie pup Ted is a bundle of joy, healthy and well bred we were given all the documents and he settled in immediately in our house. I would highly recommend The Canine Club if you are looking for your next puppy”

Lorraine Wheatley

· West Highland White Terrier

“Chris was great at communication, very helpful when meeting puppy for the first time. Daisy has settled in well to her new home, she is a very confident pup which I am sure if due to her great start in life with Chris.”
