Our Breeding Lines

 

We are a small dedicated kennel, but we are not a full time one, we have "real jobs". We take great care with our breeding and only breed to cover our costs, to give us a pup for future competition and to better our lines and the breed

We believe in only using the top blood lines for breeding and we have a large cross section of all the winning, working lines.

Our breeding bitches are all proven workers having won or received awards in Field Trials, Gundog Working Tests and/or been awarded the Kennel Club Working Gundog Certificate.



We have the Top Working Clumber Spaniel bitch in the UK. Flintwood Snowflake Macgiriaght is the only bitch in living memory to have won two field trials. She has also won an Open Gundog Working Test. She has been awarded the KC Working Gundog Certificate and Won the Marsh trophy at Crufts 2008 in the Gamekeepers Ring for "Best Sporting Spaniel Bitch" against 27 other bitches!!   She has outstanding hip scores (3/4) and tight eyes. Her build is slim and is well muscled, with no fat. She has already produced fantastic pups that are coming on nicely as shooting dogs and as Field trialers. 

We have Clumbers, Cockers and English Springer Spaniels. Puppies can be pre-booked on receipt of a 50% deposit. All our breeding bitches come from Field Trial lines, they all have very impressive pedigrees with numerous field trial champions and winners as relatives.

A spaniel is a working dog that needs appropriate training and a great deal of exercise. We produce only one or two litters of first-class puppies from award-winning lines per year, as our bitches work throughout the shooting season and need to be kept in supreme physical condition. We breed to improve the breed and to cover our expenses. Dogs of this quality are hard to come by and we consider all of them as remaining part of the Macgiriaght family. For these reasons, we can afford to be very selective as to who we allow to purchase our puppies and trained dogs.
 
Frank Geraghty reserves the absolute right to refuse a dog or puppy to anyone who he feels will not make a good owner, whether the dog is being brought as a family pet or a working dog. We operate a priority system on our puppies, field trialers take priority, followed by shooters/hunters and lastly people who wish to purchase our puppies as pets.

 

All of our puppies are supplied Docked, Dewclaws removed, Wormed, Vet Checked, Micro-chipped, Kennel Club Registered and come with 6 weeks free insurance. They also come with the peace of mind that comes from knowing that we are always on hand to offer advice and information at any time in your Macgiriaght dogs life.
