Hawkwise Dogs 
at Stud


Since this website was first designed we have followed the heritage of Hawkwise Brittanys for over 35 years. It has been a wonderful journey but has now ended on a sad note. In April 2025 a Brittany bitch, from the first litter sired by Hawkwise Land Agent, has been diagnosed with Progressice Retinal Atrophy - more usually understood as 'night blindness'. This is genetically inherited and is unknown in Brittanys. Its presence means that both parents must have been carriers of the disease. For this reason Land Agent will no longer be available at stud, and we are advising anyone thinking of breeding from one of his many descendants to have them checked for this disease first. The probability is that many of them will not be carriers, and may be safely bred from.

WORKING SUCCESSES: Won the prestigious Stan Smith Cup for the TAN at Brittany Club Championship Weekend 2016 - also gained his REEP (Deep Water Retrieve) Diploma and won the  Novice Retrieve Trophy on the same day - all when only 11 months old.

Worcester Gundogs Society HPR Shootover Day 2018 - voted "Dog of the Day" against other HPR breeds.

2021 HPR Inter-breed Challenge: Toby was on the Brittany 4-dog team and was their top scorer. He also shared the highest mark for the hunting element (38 out of 40) with one other dog from a field of 44. 

2023 at the Brittany Club's Working Day Toby won the Advanced Retrieve trophy from the holder (and another Hawkwise-bred relative) Gefni Mile a Minute. 

What Hawkwise Land Agent excels in. Toby is a very correctly built dog, with the short loin and sturdiness that fits the description "stocky". He has excellent movement, and performs equally well on heavy plough or mountainous rock screes. A superb temperament, both as a working dog and a pet. Toby also has the strongest of feet and a particularly dense coat, qualities that enable him to cope with the toughest terrain and cover. He is a powerful swimmer and retrieves both fur and feather tenderly to hand.

With the typical Hawkwise "game sense" allied to a great nose and tremendous hunting drive Toby, unusually for working Brittanys, remains responsive at any distance and in the face of any temptation. He has a genuinely generous nature and is never unaware of what you want.

Whether you are planning to breed for work, show or the pet market he will tick all your boxes. Our line of working Britts is not closely related to any of the more popular UK "kennels" so Hawkwise Land Agent offers different bloodlines that will not clash with those of most bitches. To date his litters have been very level, and of a consistent, short-backed cobby type. They have excellent heads, pleasant temperaments, and all move well. Early reports on their working ability is very positive.

Pouilly Fume  

6th May 2010 (Hawkwise Highlander x Cosd'Estruval) 

Sad to report the passing of this great dog, with cancer, at the age of just 12 years. Our sympathy, and gratitude, go to his owner Clare Gillon. His son, Hawkwise Land Agent, is left carrying the baton.


Kentwone Eastern Flame

31st July 2021 (Hawkwise Land Agent x Kentixen Starry Eyes)


Orange & white, tailed (docked). Height 51 cm, Hip Score 5/6 = 11


Kentwone Eastern Flame ( pet name Oatley) has all the ingredients to make a great working dog. He displays the intelligence, responsiveness and obedience you expect from this breeding. He has a superb pet temperament with all the family and young children and interacts kindly with other dogs, making him a perfect, affectionate pet. Outside he remains very active, and this is demonstrated by the ease with which he is taking to agility and canicross.


Oatley has the correct power/weight ratio and conformation of his parents, and a good hip score. His strong feet and dense coat equip him to withstand the toughest of terrains.


Fee £500 - return service or full refund if no live puppies.
