I'm Carol P., the breeder behind Sugarhill located in Manchester, CT. We are home-based breeders dedicated to bringing healthy, smart, and quality Spaniels into the homes and hearts of other families. All our dogs are kept in the best of health and are hip and eye certified before being bred. We stand by our puppies and make sure we are placing our dogs with families that fit their personalities.
Q. & A. with Carol
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been invested in the well-being of animals. I wanted to give back to the breed by breeding healthy pups and placing them into loving homes. My goal is to not only produce beautiful puppies but to help promote responsible breeding in order to ensure that the Cocker Spaniel will continue to thrive for generations to come.
What makes your program special?
We raise our dogs in our home and socialize the puppies. We encourage families to stay in touch with us so we can always be there for them and offer lifetime breeder support. Our buyers become our extended family! We also place great importance on producing quality puppies. Adhering to our local and national club standards for all recommended health screening tests is paramount to our dogs’ wellbeing and our personal integrity. We would be honored to introduce your family to your next quality Cocker Spaniel!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
