Maple Hill English Springer Spaniels

Our kennel takes pride in providing families with healthy, curious and level-headed puppies. Litter sires and dams are cleared for sound hips, knees and elbows through the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals and have received their certifications. All breeding dogs are also cleared for generic abnormalities. Most importantly, our dogs are temperament tested for sound minds and pedigrees clear of any behavioral or neurological disease. Raising our litters is truly a labor of love. Our puppies are raised in the home and given the gold standard of health care; and will go home having received their first set of vaccinations and deworming. Like our adult dogs, our puppies live as valued members of the family; taking walks with us on our farm, curling up in front of the fireplace and snuggling on our feet in the kitchen. We make sure they go to their new homes having been exposed to a variety of new sights, sounds and smells.

We keep no more than three dams at a time, keep one stud. We also use high quality, proven studs from other high standard kennels, with excellent temperaments who have their certifications as well.

Our puppies are sold with docked tails and all dew claws removed. They are given a thorough veterinarian exam to make sure the following are all within normal limits: cardiac and thoracic auscultation, lymph nodes, abdominal palpation, mucus membrane capillary refill time and coat texture.

Our Story

We have experienced for ourselves how the addition of a new puppy can be either a blessing or a disaster: incurring thousands of dollars in vet or dog trainer bills and plenty of broken hearts. We acknowledge, that adopting a puppy from a shelter or rescue is charitable. However, not all households are able to take the risk of adopting a puppy with an unknown health or temperament history. We take extreme precautions to ensure we place only healthy and sound puppies into forever homes.
