Some comments from our satisfied adopters
Having decided to finally allow my youngest daughter to realise her dream of having a mini Dachshund called Bruno, I found Glynfelin through the Kennel Club website. Steph,Ava and AmberJune 2024..South Wales |

We have just brought home our "second" adorable little Gigi our French bulldog pup.Another beautiful pup! We cant thank Paul and Delvin enough. Little Gigi has joined our clan ofFrench Bulldog Family of Ivy and Frieda. Paul and Delvin are such perfectionists that care so much about all the pups.Their love and care for them shows in every way and also how easy the pups interact and settle when they arrive home. Highly recommended for all round excellence. Thank you both, such lovely people. Rhi, Lyndon, Mia 14.1.2024 |

Sometimes in life you cross paths with someone that will change the life of you and your family for the better. That was certainly the case with Paul. We are so lucky that our research for a Frenchie family member pointed us to Glynfelin K9s. Thanks so much once again. |

The beginning- |
|
My partner and I had been researching breeds extensively for a while and after much consideration, settled on a French Bulldog as we felt they'd be a good fit with our lifestyle and their temperament suited the type of companionship we were looking for. We then spent time trying to find the right breeder for our new furry family member and, when it comes to Frenchies, you do have a lot of choice as they're very popular. However, a word of warning, there are a lot of puppy farms out there disguising themselves as reputable breeders and I would strongly advise anyone interested in a French Bulldog to take extreme caution when picking your pup. We found Glynfelin via the official Kennel Club Registered Breeders site and, after reviewing some other testimonials and pictures of previous litters, decided this was the breeder for us. We reached-out to Paul and he immediately called, asking all the right questions you'd expect a conscientious breeder to ask a potential owner. From then on, our mind was set and although the waiting list was quite long, we knew it'd be worth it. Another word of advice; BE PATIENT people! Puppies aren't born overnight and you'll need to wait but let me tell you, it is absolutely worth it. Paul was professional, friendly and approachable throughout the entire process, providing us with updates on the mother as she went through her pregnancy, then weekly updates once the litter was born. We paid them a visit when our puppy was 4 weeks old and Paul was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable; when we set eyes on Wilson for the first time, we fell completely in love. Once you take the puppy home (Paul takes care of the initial injections, microchip, worming etc.), if you ever have any questions or need any guidance, Paul is always on-hand to offer his support. An absolutely wonderful experience and, should we decide to get a second, we know exactly who to call! Wilson is absolutely stunning, healthy, happy, intelligent and just perfect. We feel like the luckiest people alive! Thanks again Paul, Wilson has had a hugely positive impact on our lives and we'll be forever grateful. |

Sorry it’s take a while to send you and Delvin and testimonial, but we haven’t forgotten and really appreciated your expertise and professionalism as a breeder. Ollie and Annie 8/8/2021 |

I really cannot recommend Paul enough.From the first enquiry, right through to collection and beyond,he has been amazing.Nothing has been too much trouble and he has been happy to answer questions,no matter how trivial and offer any advice that was needed. It isobvious how much Paul cares about his dogs and theirouppies.Obi came home around two weeks ago and he has the most gentle demeanourand character, which is a true testament to how they have been raised during those first weeks.He's outgoing,fun.loves everyone and is full of energy. Thanks Paulfor making the whole process a joy Ben Roberts 16/6/2021 |

We had been looking for a Frenchie to join our family for a while, and all of our research pointed us towards Paul being the best. From first contact, Paul has been present and supportive. He was a reassuring presence throughout the process, answering all of our questions and proactively offering advice and guidance. Paul is passionate about what he does and clearly loves the dogs that he shares his home with. All of his dogs and puppies were clearly very happy, loved and well taken care of in beautiful surroundings. Our Rosie is beautiful, smart, confident, funny and cheeky. She is a credit to Paul and the care and attention he puts into his job. We are so grateful to have found Paul and to have our little frenchie in our lives. We would highly recommend Glynfelin K9s and Paul. Thank you!

We had real concerns about finding the right breeder and with that - the right pup for us. It was always vital to that the puppy be well socialised and from a warm home rather than a kennel. Having been referred by a member of ‘UK Miniature Dachshunds’ on Facebook - to Paul and Devlin and the ‘Glynfelin K9’s’,we reached out via the Kennel Club Website to establish whether any female mini dachshunds were available. Already having had a mini red shaded short haired – we were so keen to find her a little friend, as after all – they are better in pairs! Of course not knowing the kennels or the area (South Wales) we were sceptical as we are London based and it would have meant long trips and we did not want to be disappointed having driven 5 hours each way. Paul was however so helpful and immediately put our minds at ease. We had several conversations via message as well as phone call discussing the pups as also our circumstances and associated concerns. (It made me so happy that they were also worried about where the pups would be going and their welfare) Images of the pup were sent and we were given a choice of 2 that were available. Throughout the process Paul was transparent and clear and answered all our questions many times over (I am sure we drove him mad!). The day came that we were due to drive to Wales to collect ‘Pretzel’. The area is quite remote and postcodes aren’t really relevant – instead we received what we took to be a ‘treasure map’ which led us to arrive at the most beautiful cottage on the biggest piece of land with streams flowing through it and a ‘kennel’ with TV and sofas for the doggies – we knew we were at the right place! We were made to feel so welcome and not as though it was a business transaction at all. Contracts, puppy packs and all legalities, formalities and extras were in place and we were delighted by the smoothness of the process. Pretzel was gorgeous and did not disappoint- the most well adjusted, tail wagging little black and tan mini daxie ever! Since collection our Princess Pretzel, has been in perfect health, had the most sweetest yet crazy disposition and brought us endless fun and joy. I can honestly say I am so happy and grateful I found Paul and Devlin as they are also such wonderful souls and people I would always like to remain in contact with. Paul reaches out regularly to ask how Pretzel is doing and we often exchange messages and images. This is what I would deem to be the perfect breeder that truly has the welfare of the pups as a primary focus. Thank you gents – you are legends in the field! Deborah-Lynn and Pretzel 12/6/2020 |

Sometimes words just aren’t enough!!! We can’t say how delighted we are with our new Frenchie Stella, she is an absolute darling and as for Paul and Delvin, they were equally delightful. From the moment we contacted Paul we knew we were in good hands; they take so much pride and care in what they do, and you can tell simply by how wonderful Stella is, she has had the best start to life, and we couldn’t be happier! We found Paul and Delvin on the assured list of Kennel Club Breeders, we had to wait just over one week before we could get Stella and in that week (which felt like months) Paul contacted us every day with pup-dates and video calls letting us know how she was doing and giving us also sorts of helpful tips! As I said from start to finish, we couldn’t be happier to have had the pleasure to meet and deal with Paul and Delvin and clearly Stella is now our favourite girl and the star of our life!!! Thanks Paul and Delvin, look forward to visiting later in the summer Jason, Lukas and Stella..9/6/2020 |

We had been considering getting a miniature dachshund for around 18 months and we were waiting for the right time and right one to come along.

We spent a lot of timeresearching the perfect breedersfor our dachshund to avoid puppy farms. We were instantly impressed with our initial contact with Paul who wanted to know something about us, our work and life style. We felt reassured that Paul and Delvin vetted prospective buyers to ensure that proper considerationhad been made about purchasing a puppy. |

It was an absolute pleasure buying a puppy from Paul and Delvin. They have such a loving home for all of their dogs and puppies, and you know that you're buying a puppy that's been raised in a happy and relaxed environment. It's also great and reassuring to know that we can always get in touch if we have any questions or concerns. I would recommend buying a puppy from this fabulous pair- and we look forward to keeping in touch with them as our puppy progresses. Elin, Josh (and Teri!!) 15/2/2020 |

Where to begin...we literally searched all over the country to find a breeder/litter that ticked all our boxes. After contacting everyone on the assured breeders scheme we wittled it down to Paul and Delvin and are so glad we did. Not only is our puppy healthy, with a great temprament and well socialised but we've made great friends who we kow will be there whenever we or our puppy needs them. Paul and Delvin made the process of finding, buying and bringing home our first puppy so smooth and were always just a text or call away if we had any questions. We couldn't imagine our life without our little puppy now so thank you so much to Paul and Delvin for looking after him so well until we could bring him home !!.... .Kimberley 17/4/2019 |
