Meet the breeder

I'm Diane P., the breeder behind Ashcroft Bedlington Terriers located in Honey Brook, PA. I participate in conformation and a variety of other events. Bedlingtons enjoy many canine sports and family activities. They make wonderful family companions, and we are happy to be able to provide other families and individuals with extraordinary Bedlington puppies.

Q. & A. with Diane

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I spent months meeting dogs and breeders when I started looking for my Bedlingtons. 25 years ago they were scarce, even more so now. When I found the right dogs, I purchased my first two Bedlingtons. Brady was from a breeder in Virginia and Cocoa another in Canada. Two championships and two years later, Ashcroft was born.
  • What makes your program special?

    I try to breed the best possible Bedlington Terriers I can. Temperament is key, but they must also be of the correct size and "make" that no one can mistake what they are. My Bedlingtons are raised in my home, starting in the living room, graduating to the kitchen, the hub of my home. They have plenty of mental stimulation and social interaction. I believe strongly in appropriate health testing and tested my dogs for generations. The oldest Bedlington I bred lived to seventeen, and I currently have a fifteen year old male and a twelve year old girl who sleeps on my bed every night.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include liver and blue. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
