We are Paul & Raylene, we live in the West Midlands UK, with our family of Dogues and other animals.
We own and Show Irish Setters, Dogue de Bordeauxs and Pomeranians.
All of our dogs are kept in our home, and are pets first and used for showing or breeding second. Many are handled in ringcraft and shows by our children.
We were first introduced to the fantastic Dogue de Bordeaux breed in 2005 and had our first Dogues in early 2008 from our good friend Kerry Jones at Willsanburg Kennels. Impressed with the excellent bloodlines and quality of puppies we have had a number of other Dogues from Kerry since and hold some others in partnership with her.
We show all our Dogues at open and championship level please see our Dogues individual pages for more information.
Our aim is to produce healthy quality Dogues of a large size with good temperaments and movement. Most of the bitches we own here at Abnoba are on the top line of KC / FCI breed standard.All of our dogs and Stud dogs are selected for the quality of the bloodlines. We are committed to maintaining the health and true Dogue de Bordeaux type. Not all Dogue de Bordeaux's are show Dogues, but have the potential to continue on the bloodlines that is necessary to improve and keep the breed correct.
We are committed to using hip scored breeding stock for our Bordeaux's and to screen all other breeding stock for other health issues that may affect that breed.
We have Dogues and Setters from some of the best bloodlines available and occasionally have puppies available.
