Spaniel X Puppies

Ready to adopt from the weekend of 20th December – when they are 8 weeks old.

Meet our beautiful dozen — Fawn, Honey, Caramel, Truffle, Amber, Bronze, Biscuit, Toffee, Walnut, Henna, Cocoa, and Sienna! These 12 adorable spaniel cross puppies were born in CDCH care on 26th October and have been lovingly raised in a wonderful foster home alongside their incredible mum. She has been the most patient, gentle, and nurturing mother (and truly deserves a medal for raising twelve pups!).

We believe these little ones may be Spaniel x Labrador mixes, though this cannot be confirmed. Their mother is a Britany Spaniel. What we can say is that they are full of curiosity, character, and charm – ready to grow into loyal and loving companions with the right families.

❗️A Very Important Message – These Puppies Are Not for Christmas

While their adoption date falls close to Christmas, we will not consider any applications from those looking to ‘buy a puppy as a present’. Puppies are not gifts, and we will be screening applications very carefully to ensure adopters understand the lifelong commitment of welcoming a dog into their home.

We will also only consider homes having a quiet Christmas with minimal visitors, as the hustle and bustle of the season can be extremely stressful and disruptive during the puppies’ crucial settling-in period.

 What We’re Looking For in Adopters

These puppies need families who are:

• Fully prepared for the realities of puppy care — house training, puppy mouthing, chewing, and confidence building are all part of the journey.

• Committed to ongoing training and socialisation to help their puppy grow into a well-rounded adult dog.

• Able to attend puppy training classes — CDCH runs regular puppy classes on site, and we highly recommend signing up through our website or by speaking to a team member.

• Flexible to return to the centre for their second vaccination on 8th January and, when old enough, neutering, both of which form part of the adoption conditions.

• Active homes, spaniels are working breeds, so require a lot of mental and physical exercise when they are older to ensure their needs are being met.

If you’re ready to make a lifelong commitment to one of these wonderful puppies and can offer a calm, loving home where they can thrive, please submit an application via our website.

These puppies deserve homes that will cherish them long after the Christmas lights come down – could that be you?
