Welcome To Peniglen Gundog Labradors
We at Peniglen are proud members of The Kennel Club Assured Breeder Scheme.
(Formally known As The Kennel Club Accredited Breeder Scheme)

We are a small privately owned kennel who's aim is to produce and train top quality healthy, working labradors for our next generations,
with excellent temperments, soundness and intelligence who will excel in the shooting, working and trialing fields and who will also make
fantastic family pets.
Our journey started when we bought our first labrador bitch - Dora (Swaine Astelia) who we initially bought as a pet. We immediately fell in
love with Dora and the breed, so wanted to learn more and therefor attended some local gundog training classes where we got the 'bug' for
gundog training and gundog work. We became totally addicted and wanted more and more, so after about 3 months went on to buy our
second bitch Jet (Swaine Paiju). This meant that we had our own dog to train and to enjoy.
That same year we were invited along to a local shoot, where we spectated and generally enjoyed the atmosphere of the day. Towards the
end of the day and on the last drive, there was a strong runner which landed in bracken which stood around 4ft tall. An experienced picking up
dog was sent in for the retrieve - but which came back without the bird, so the guns dog was then sent in to find the runner. After about 10mins
that dog also came back out without the bird. The drive had finished by this point and all the beaters, guns, pickers and shoot captain were all
stood in line - when the shoot captain asked Tracey if she wanted to send in a very young Jet (around 8 or 9 months of age). Tracey lined Jet up
for the blind as she hadn't seen the fall, and cast Jet off into the bracken, and after about 10 to 15 seconds Jet came out with the hen bird.
WOW - what a fantastic moment - little Jet had just eye wiped two adult experienced picking up dogs. The whole place erupted into a big cheer,
with everyone giving us a round of applause. After that we were invited along to every shoot day, the shoot captain understanding that they
were still very young dogs and that one or two retrieves would be quite sufficient. After that day we decided to make it our full time hobby
which we all thoroughly enjoy.
We then went on to try our luck at working tests and again we were fortunate enough to do well, gaining several awards which we are very
proud of. We are to continue with working tests and hopefully get a couple of runs in field trials and just generally enjoy been out and about
with our Labbies. Thats it folks - thats us - thats how our journey started and hopefully we will have many more years of fun, plenty of things
we have yet to learn, and many more dogs to look forward to train and share our lives with.
