Welcome to Saltwic Country Dogs

Working English Springer Spaniels from Proven Bloodlines

Bred for Performance, Temperament & Reliability in the Field

Carefully bred English Springer Spaniels for beating and picking up—combining natural ability, strength, and exceptional temperament

We specialise in breeding working English Springer Spaniels with the qualities demanded by serious handlers and shooting enthusiasts.

Each dog is selectively bred from proven working bloodlines, chosen for their drive, intelligence, and calm, obedient nature. The result is a dependable gundog with the natural instinct and trainability required to perform consistently in the field.

Our aim is simple: to produce reliable, hard-working dogs that are a pleasure to handle in the field.

Each dog is bred with purpose, combining proven lineage with the qualities that matter most—intelligence, attentiveness, and a strong work ethic. Whether you’re an experienced handler or new to working dogs, we focus on matching the right dog to the right home.

About Us

A Passion for Working Gundogs

Working English Springer Spaniels are at the heart of everything we do.

Our focus is on preserving and improving the natural working ability of the breed—producing dogs that are not only talented but reliable, level-headed, and a pleasure to work in the field.

Our current dogs all work from small syndicate shoots to a larger prestigious shoot steeped in history and worldwide clients, where a dog's good behaviour and work rate is paramount.

We have recently expanded our team with a cocker spaniel and a Labrador retriever giving Olly more opportunity to expand his knowledge on retrieval training.

Selective Breeding Approach

Every pairing is carefully considered to maintain the highest standards.

I breed for:

Natural hunting and game-finding ability
Calm, biddable temperament
Strength, stamina, and resilience
Intelligence and responsiveness

By prioritising these traits, we ensure each litter reflects the qualities expected from a top-class working Springer Spaniel.

Our commitment

At Saltwic Country Dogs, the welfare of our dogs is at the heart of everything we do. We pride ourselves on delivering outstanding care and initial puppy training that can be tailored to meet the unique needs of each dog and their owner.

This begins with the utmost respect of the time the puppies need with their mother in our home with the introduction of positive socialisation with humans and other dogs from an early age so their trust and bonding becomes a natural part of their foundations to build upon.

Explore our offerings and discover how we can support you and your canine companion. Currently we don't offer Gundog training, however we are happy to pass on any advice you need using our knowledge and experience we have gained from training and working our own dogs. If there is anything we can't answer we will point you in the direction of someone who can answer your question or needs.

Happy dogs, happy owners

At Saltwic Country Dogs, we believe that a happy dog makes for a happy owner. Our dedication to our dog welfare and continued training ensures that our canine companions receive the best care, enriching both their lives and ours. Discover the Saltwic difference today.
