About Handpost Farm

We have over thirty years experience of owning, training and breeding dogs. We own a registered smallholding on which we keep cattle, chickens and dogs, and have previously had other animals including horses, pigs and sheep. Some of our Labradors and Cockers are trained gun dogs who work on local shoots.

All of our dogs have wonderful temperaments and are bred to produce good natured, family or working pets. All of our dogs are very friendly, healthy and fun loving. Our puppies are well handled and socialised before they leave us.


Licence number 25/00055/AWLAIA

Frequently Asked Questions

Hopefully these will answer some of the questions that you may have as a potential puppy buyer
Will the puppies be vaccinated and flea treated?

Some breeders may de-flea pups  at 8 weeks of age with a chemical de-flea spot on treatment like Frontline or Advocate and some may give their pups first vaccinations but this can be done by the owner when they bring them home. Some breeders may not agree with subjecting  young puppies to chemical flea treatments, rather leaving the choice to the owner.

Vaccinations are given normally at either 8 and 10 weeks or 10 and 12 weeks dependant on the vet you use. If your breeder has vaccinated make sure  they give you the vaccination record so you know the brand they use  as vets like to give the second injection using the same brand, otherwise some vets may insist on vaccinations being done from scratch. Some breeders may not vaccinate, leaving that choice to the owner, and also due to vets requiring the same brand to be used which may not be available if your breeder lives in a different area to you.
