English Springer Spaniels
Welcome to the website for ESSpecial English Springer
Spaniels.
We have
included around twenty-five of our champions with links to some of
their offspring. These dogs wonderfully represent our breeding
program and have all been included because of their quality of
conformation, overall health and temperament. We like to think
these dogs have a common "look" about them and are very proud to see
their relatives and offspring in the dog community across the
country who share that.
I purchased my first show dog in 1985.
More than twenty-five years have flown by resulting in many litters and over fifty champions.
A/C Champion Tiffany's
Moonlite ESSpecial, "Maddie", my foundation bitch, was
in Robin Novack's first litter. Robin was a 17 year old with few
credentials other than a wonderful bitch with a priceless prefix:
Ch. Loujon Elegance. Robin and I have
grown up together: she as a professional handler and I as an owner
handler; both of us as dog breeders. Our friendship has survived
the tolls because we have the same fundamental goals and
expectations. We love this breed and hope to preserve the quality
bestowed
upon us by our foundation.
From that foundation of a National Winner's Bitch who produced a
National Winner's Dog from her first litter, it would seem I've had
a charmed "dog life." I credit tremendous good fortune, but I have
also been very selective about the dogs I have kept and even more so
about the ones I have bred. I do not breed dogs simply because of
their pedigree. I will not breed to dogs with whom I have not had
personal interaction and knowledge and I will not breed any dog or
bitch that does not possess unquestionable springer character and
overall health. I have worked hard to learn to trim, condition and
present my dog respectably and I have made some very difficult
decisions regarding dogs that I needed to place in loving homes. I
will only utilize a dog or bitch if it possesses the qualities I
feel are needed to better my program. In terms of health and
temperament: there is no compromise. I sleep well in the belief
that I am doing my utmost to produce springers that will enrich
people's lives. That they enrich my life tenfold is just icing on
the cake.
We are all looking for the same dog:
happy, healthy, sane and sweet.
As long as that description fits dogs with the
ESSpecial prefix, I will proudly call myself a dog breeder.
