Puppies
Sussex Spaniels are a rare and vulnerable breed with around 30 puppies born each year. They can be difficult to breed and puppies are hard to come by which means a long wait for a puppy.
It can be frustrating to be waiting for a Sussex Spaniel puppy to become available in the UK and waiting for 2 or more years is common. The internet and social media have made awareness of puppies available in other countries much more accessible and these puppies can be very tempting when you are desperate for a Sussex Spaniel to join your family.
There are some excellent Sussex Spaniel breeders overseas, but as with anything there can also be individuals who do not have your best interests at heart. The SSA has produced this guide to help you think carefully, plan properly, and avoid potential pitfalls when considering a puppy from abroad.
The SSA may, at times be aware of available puppies, and will list these on this page.
If you have bred a litter and have puppies that you would like us to help you find homes for then we are happy to do so provided that either the sire or dam’s owner(s) are members of the SSA and are UK based. Please contact the Hon Sec should you wish us to help in the first instance.
At times breeders do not always inform the SSA that they are planning or having a litter, so there may be puppies that we are not aware of, and breeders often compile their own lists which they to go to first.
Please also be aware that breeders are likely to carry out checks to ensure their puppies go to suitable homes. Prospective puppy owners should also do the same and The Kennel Club has some excellent advice on this.
Most breeders like to meet prospective owners, this is best done by coming along to one of the SSA events or visiting our shows. Events can be found on the ‘What’s on’ page and we welcome everyone to join us.
