I'm Darla J., the breeder behind Coteau Springers located in Monticello, MN. The puppies are handled when they are just days old so that they are well-socialized and calm. We carefully watch and interact with the puppies so we are able to provide information and make suggestions so puppies have the best possible match with people.
Q. & A. with Darla
Why did you start breeding?
Craig and I have always been big dog lovers, but when Craig convinced me to get an English Springer Spaniel I fell in love with her size, versatility, and disposition. That’s when we decided to begin the journey of raising quality Springer Spaniels.
What makes your program special?
We are small, but serious about our breeding program and dogs. Our dogs loved and our puppies get lots of attention are well socialized.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include liver and white and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
