After discussion with you about your personal circumstances, needs and preferences,
we use our specialist knowledge to narrow down your search to specific breeds or types of dog
which we feel will be the best match for your lifestyle, family circumstances, working/
other commitments, personality and living environment.

Of course, there are websites and books that will generate a list of suggested breeds according to your criteria but these are limited to basic factors such as size, coat type and exercise requirements. This is a bit like trying to choose a potential partner based purely on their height, hair length and how often they visit the gym!
As we all know, there’s much more to a dog (or partner!) than this, which is why we use our experience and expertise to match you not only on these ‘tick box’ factors but also on the really important stuff such as personality type, temperament, lifestyle and expectations.
We consider the nuances of each breed’s characteristics and the potential range of variation
within each breed to truly identify the best matches for you.

The Puppy Pairing service includes:
- Telephone assessment in which we find out everything we need to know about you and what you want (approx 45 minutes)
- Use of our expertise, prior knowledge, experience and research to match what we know about you with what we know about dogs
- Personalised Puppy Match Recommendation Report, written especially for you, in which we set out your best 3 matches in detail (explaining why each would be a good match for you, based on the information you have given) and highlight other options for you to consider if you’re still not sure

Gretta's advice was insightful, thorough, expert and absolutely invaluable. She took us through a detailed and searching series of questions which enabled her to identify what breed of dog would best be suited to our personalities and lifestyle, given what we wanted to achieve with a dog.
Her knowledge and advice also ensured that we didn't go off track just because we felt that a particular breed might be right, or because we loved the look of the dog. She helped us to make what was undoubtedly the right choice both for us and for our puppy.
Because of Gretta's help, we have an amazing pup who captures the hearts of (almost!) everyone he meets - canines and humans alike. Gretta's advice was also deeply reassuring. Almost inevitably, prospective parents are likely to face some anxieties about whether they are doing the right thing etc. We made sure that Gretta would tell us straight if she thought the whole 'project puppy' was a bad idea for us. The welfare of the dog was always our prime concern, and we wanted to be sure that we were not going to disappoint him or let him down. She assured us that she would indeed suggest that we abandon the idea, if her expert opinion was that it would all be too much. As it turned out, we have a wonderful doggie and all thanks to Gretta's amazing help.
