Yunbeai have been breeding and showing English Cockers since 1954. Over one hundred dogs from Yunbeai Kennels have achieved Champion status in the ring, frequently taking out some of the highest awards that can be achieved.

Yunbeai aims to continually improve their breed. While breeding for show conformation, temperament is also vitally important. We are breeding from the same basic families of dogs which two generations of our own children have grown with and loved. All our puppies are extensively handled by both adults and children and we happily let the youngest member of the family (Megan, born in Nov 2002) roam in and out of the kennel with our adult dogs and our bitches with puppies. An essential ingredient in any cocker is the character - they should be a merry, loving family dog. We do not, and will not keep dogs with traces of aggression. If you want a guard dog, don't buy one of our cockers because while they will let you know the burglar is there by barking, it will be barks of welcome not defence!

We will also not let any puppy go until we are completely satisfied that it is well established on food and able to cope without its mother. This means that a purchaser may have to wait an extra week or so until we are satisfied that their puppy is completely ready.

Unless we are selling to a registered breeder for show and breeding purposes, all our puppies are sold as "pets only" and female puppies are sterilized before leaving the kennel. We supply an Extract of Birth Certificate with a three generation pedigree, the date of birth, sex and colour of each puppy. While this is not an official certificate of registration for show and breeding use all puppies sold by us are bred from registered parents and all puppies are registered. We welcome visitors both seeing and handling the parents and other family members of any puppies which are for sale.
