Our mission is to breed responsibly and intentionally, prioritising health testing, ethical practices, and early socialisation. We strive to ensure each puppy is confident, well-adjusted, and ready to thrive in their forever home. Breeding, for us, is about stewardship: caring deeply for our dogs and ensuring puppies are cherished for life.
Qualifications & Experience
I am a 5 Star Council Licensed Breeder, Qualified Microchipper and Ultrasound Sonographer. I also hold an Ofqual Qualified Level 3 award in canine care, behaviour and Welfare. This ensures that Chestnut Pawss adheres to the highest standards of animal welfare and ethical breeding practices.
What You Should Know
When considering a Chestnut Paw here's what's most important:
- Health and ethics come first. We prioritise responsible breeding practices, including health testing, thoughtful pairings, and high standards of care for our parent dogs and puppies.
- Temperament and early socialisation matter. Our puppies receive early socialisation, enrichment, and human interaction to help them grow into confident, well-adjusted companions.
- Lifetime commitment to our puppies. We remain a resource for families long after adoption, always putting the dogs’ well-being first and ensuring they’re placed in loving, prepared homes.
"We couldn't be happier with our Chestnut Puppy. They're healthy, well-tempered, and have brought so much joy to our family."
