Meet the breeder

I'm Steve K., the breeder behind Belews Creek Gundogs located in Stokesdale, NC. We specialize in breeding top-quality pet gundogs direct from UK field trial champion lines renowned for their intelligence, loyalty, and natural hunting ability. Our breeding program is dedicated to producing healthy, well-tempered, biddable gundogs that excel in the field and at home.

Q. & A. with Steve

  • Why did you start breeding?

    All of my dogs are imports and are a beloved part of our family. Our dogs are from top international field trial lines and we started breeding by demand from friends and family that desired a puppy from our lines.

  • What makes your program special?

    We are a family kennel. Only breed one litter at a time, and the pups are whelped and raised in our home. Everyone is involved in the process and we are complimented by puppy buyers in regards to socialization and communication during the process. Every pup born here is raised as if we would keep them forever. They are all special and their health and future is always top of mind here.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Labrador Retriever puppies are yellow. English Cocker Spaniel puppies include liver and white and liver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Belews Creek Gundogs reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for English Cocker Spaniels.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • DNA Disease Panel, Adult Onset Neuropathy (AON), Acral Mutilation Syndrome (AMS), Familial Nephropathy, Cocker Spaniel Type, PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd), Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC)

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
