Hello!...My name is Katie.
I have a diploma as dog beautician and was trained by a city and guild instructor.
I have been brought up from an early age with dogs and have always owned one, even when I left home to pursue a career in a highly regarded race horse stud which involved foaling and preparing young horses for the racing world. I always had a four legged friend by my side.
I have a long family history with winners at crufts and championship dog breeders and judges.
​
My mum is the one who inspired and encouraged my love of animals. She is a top breeder and championship judge of Hungarian vizslas, wire hair vizsal and Italian spinones for 30 yrs! and will be judging at Crufts in 2019.
She also works her dogs as h.p.r’s (hunt point retrieve) gundog’s, she has been asked to work her dogs at many local estates, but has chosen Cornwell Estate as she grew up there. My mum has also bred, shown and won best of breed at Crufts with her dog and been on the telly!!!! Well done mum xx

Meet My Dogs

Diesel is a 15 yr old boarder terrier cross he is regarded as the Sargent major of my pack.
He’s been with me through thick and thin since he was 4 wks old.
Star
Star is a border terrier and the baby. she has only just turned 3, and is quit shy and differently a mummy’s girl.
Duke
Duke is a Spanish mastiff x Italian mastiff. He is 12 (we think) My partner rescued him when he was 3. He has had to have a lot of training in his younger years to help show him a much happier life, which you will see when you meet him. All he wants to do is say hello to everyone and lay around all day, pretending to be a hurdle!
