Welcome to our site. We are a small kennel occasionally producing home reared puppies. We are involved in showing, working, agility and obedience with our dogs. Flo and Dora our Italian Spinoneshave been busy since our last update. Flo had her second litter of four brown roan pups and is recovering to go back to showing off again. The picture above is of Dora when she was a little younger. She just did us proud by getting 1st in her class at Crufts 2010. From the same litter Joe (Boxlock Finlay)has built continued his winning ways also getting first in his Class at Crufts. With Trella (Boxlock Florence) the American Champion from the same litter we are over the moon with how well they are all doing. 

With regards to puppies , Flo is having a much deserved rest, and we haven't decided yet if we will have a litter this year. As always we have a list of prospective new homes already but do get in touch if interested.             

Have a look at my photo slide shows. Your web browser may want to block them but they are only photos and won't do your computer any harm. So let them work. Any questions, email me.  


The dogs now live in three seperate homes now as our family has grown older. They all meet up quite often and enjoy running rip as a pack on walks. 


Florence (Bannonbrig Painted Lady of Boxlock), or Flo for short, is our 1st Italian Spinone. She was bred by the Spencers (Bannonbrig Kennel) in Wigan. She can be a handful especially with the thought of a walk put in her head but generally a calm and gentle dog. She pretends she is independent but loves nothing better than a goo fuss. She does agility and obedience. She is also our first dog that we have 'shown'. She qualified for Crufts 2009 getting third in her class and had a litter all within a year.

Dora (Boxlock Flora) is from Flo's last litter. She is a character of course and possibly had some mountain goat genes put in somewhere demonstrated by her climbing antics. She qualified for Crufts 2009 in her first show and then 2010 where she just acheived 1st in her class. She is enjoyin learning the basics of dog agility. Some of her litter mates are also doing very well in shows. Check out the Puppies 2008 page.

Tessa is from the Shotaan kennel like Inga before her she guards the house and torments any dog that visits. Be warned that if you come to visit she is very playful and may guide you to the house if invited.

Tinker (Gunstock Dana) came from Gaynor and Trevor Bailey (Gunstock Kennels) in North Wales. She is a compact and has a curly coat like her dad FTCh Haskayne Moss of Glensue (National Champion. She wasn't cut out to be a mum and only had one litter. She is still very playful and sometimes has a mad ten minutes to an hour tearing about on walks.

Baloo (Boxlock Eamon) came from Melly's last litter and lives with Katy. Tinker is his Grandma. He is such a calm gentleman. He has had the nickname 'Baloodini' for his escape artist repetoire. He seems to have the cat like ability to squeeze through the tiniest of holes. He hasn't had any training but his instincts and breeding came to the fore in a recent scurry and his "Spin Swim" weekend. (just click on his) picture to find out more)
