Welsh Springer Spaniel Breeders, Waikato Region NZ

We are a Mother and Daughter team who whelped our first litter in November 2009. We are situated on a dairy farm in the Waikato and believe that all dogs should be allowed to get dirty, to chase rabbits and enjoy life in all its fullness. We aim to breed happy, healthy best friends who can turn their hand to whatever is required of them. Whether it's hunting in the field, playing with children, showing off in the ring or cuddling on the couch. Our foundation bitch Ch Brynmor Red Enchantress of Afonderi (Tess), is a Best of Group winner, multi class all breed class in group and multi speciality class in show winner. Her son, Ch Afonderi Armed N Red E (Horus) is a Reserve in group winner. Her daugthers, Afonderi Red E Maid (Monkey), is a multi speciality class in show and multi all breeds age of group winner. And not to be left behind, Afonderi At the Red E (Bridie) also is also a multi all breeds age of group winner. Bridie's daughter Bryndoain Playin-it-cool with Afonderi (sired by ENG SH CH Kazval Bandito is a multi speciality class in show winner. Jasper (Afonderi St. Elmo's Fire) has joined our show time part time and we have been fortunate enough to have had MYCROFT MOUNTAIN ASH sent to us (in partnership with Bryndoain kennels) from Aust by her breeder Sylvia Brackman. We are looking forward to another exciting year with our adorable loveable collection of best friends.

Bryndoain is the longest established Kennels for Welsh Springers in New Zealand. We purchased our first Welsh "Bryn" from the first litter in NZ,in late 1977. He went on to become the first NZ Bred breed Champion. We then imported from the Northey Kennels to establish a healthy genetic base for the breed,then continued throughout the years with exchanges from Australia, and using stock imported from UK. Always rurally based,our present kennels are situated on a small block surrounded by stream, swamp and bush in the western Waikato, a perfect backdrop for happy active Welsh to hunt rabbits and birds. Breeding stock are carefully monitored for genetic health. All inquiries are welcome from prospective pet, hunting or show homes. We provide new owners with extensive help and hints with their new family members. These happy active Welsh are also great at agility and tracking. Two of our Bryndoain dogs are now employed to hunt out Argentine Ant pests in NZ, safeguarding our Port of Auckland from this invasive pest. Their keen nose ability is well known in hunting pheasants also, flushing them from cover for the hunters. Email or phone inquiries welcome. (064)(0)7 8293323
