Kennel Wildomar's has bred English Springer Spaniels since 2003. We have imported dogs from Sweden, Estonia, UK and Poland. Our target is to breed healthy dogs, which fit to the breed standard and have ability and skills for different hobbies as well as for living as a beloved pet. We have exported dogs for example to USA, Canada, Poland, France, Germany, Estonia and Sweden. We have 40 champions in our breeding and several dogs rewarded in other tests and competitions. We feed our dogs with high quality food and our dogs are our family members.

Ella Ruuni

"I got my first own dog when I was 10-years-old. Before that I entered Match Show events with my Godmother's Flat Coated Retriever. With my own Shetland Sheepdog I had enough courage to compete in official Junior Handler competitions. I competed actively in Junior Handling for 7 years and I have handled many different breeds in the breed rings. I am a qualified Junior Handler judge by the Finnish Kennel Club."
