BrambleDale Boniface




BrambleDale Boniface
Known adoringly as Taffy. 

A gentle giant of a Beardie, Taffy came into our lives when we lost a beloved rescue pet from China. Heartbroken my family searched for a puppy suitable as a companion for the remaining rescue pining for his  lost sibling.

We needed a gentle breed and I wanted a bitch to take the place of my missing rescue who had lovingly been a part of our family for so long.

 An incredible lead  saw me driving to Wales to meet Lynne Sharpe who breeds Brambledales.

The minute I saw Lynnes  litter I was smitten, her beardies are the most  incredible dogs. You really have to see them to understand how I felt at that time.

While I looked at the female puppy that I had driven so far to see  a little male   kept catching my eye. He was adorable and it was love ar first sight.

I will never forget the look on everyones face when I returned home with a sweet black and white bundle that happened to be huge. Everyone was waiting for me to walk in with a little female after all their searching for just the right puppy.

But I had fallen in love with the most gorgeous boy.

Our relationship and adventure into owning a Beardie had begun ......little did I know that Taffy would live all over the world with me.

He is  a blessing .........and I am so grateful to Lynne and her Beardies for helping me fall in love with this breed.
