Our gorgeous Luna

22nd October 2020

Luna is the most adorable puppy, cute, funny but also confident, very clever and quick learner. We had an easy life with her training, although we are first time dog owners, thanks to the brilliant work already done by Joyce and Kevin during the first 8 weeks. We could not have asked for a better start in our dog owner adventure; Joyce, Kevin and their Cotons are truly amazing!

Charlies' Amazing - Thank You

15th July 2020

Joyce and Kevin do such an amazing job with their family of Coton de Tulears – so diligent and do the groundwork with basic training and developing the puppies through play and little obstacle courses etc. The handover pack and information is superb. We already had a Coton, but the difference in our Coton from Joyce and Kevin is like night and day, and I can already see little Charlie is incredibly responsive to new games and training. He gives us a little yap when he wants to go to the toilet, and he loves to chill out by sleeping on our feet!

Two happy puppy daddies

23rd June 2019

As first time puppy parents we were nervous about getting our Howie but with all their help and advice Joyce and Kevin have made it a dream. Howie came to us as a gorgeous, happy and outgoing little chap. It is clear how much time and energy they put into raising their pups. All of Joyce and Kevin’s dogs are beautiful and friendly and it is lovely to see how much they are loved. We would highly recommend anyone interested in a Coton pup getting in touch.

Pluto the puppy

21st June 2019

We are so so lucky that we found the Holleys and Valeast on the Kennel Club website. From the moment I spoke with Joyce to go onto the waiting list, and all the way through to taking our puppy home, we were in such good hands. Joyce explained everything so well which made us feel more confident about having our first puppy. Any questions we had along the way were expertly explained and we felt very supported in the journey. The love, care and attention she gives to the puppies has meant our little Pluto is a very happy, confident and well adjusted puppy and he was already doing great with training while still with Joyce and has continued to train excellently since he came home with us. We can’t thank you enough for bringing the most incredible little pup into our lives!

Feeling lucky

20th June 2019

I was lucky to find Kus. I have a 3 year old Coton and love the breed. I rang Joyce to see about reserving a puppy and discovered she had a puppy available. I got her at 12 weeks as we were away the week before. Joyce was so helpful. She checked what vaccines she would have in the future and had her fully vaccinated with the same one. What food she would be fed and changed her to that food. She asked if she would be caged at night and she started that. As a consequence she has settled in brilliantly. She has been really well socialised, coping with long car journeys and happily meeting new people and dogs. Importantly, Joyce tests her dogs and bitches for every known inherited disease, ensuring the best possible chance of a healthy dog. Basically we are delighted with her and very grateful to Joyce. Thank you Claire and Phil Kenward

Our Beautiful Girl

23rd August 2017

We contacted Joyce over a year ago regarding adopting a little Coton de Tulear. We were given much information and help and we went on the waiting list. We are now the proud parents of the most adorable and mischievous little girl. Joyce is the most excellent breeder and her care of the puppies was first class. We wake up every morning and gaze at our beautiful girl and can see her superb quality. If only all breeders were in Joyce’s class.

A Big Thank You For Maisie

5th July 2016

We struck lucky in having the opportunity to own a puppy from Kevin and Joyce. Maisie is now five months old, adorable, beyond cute and we love her dearly. We would like to say a big thank you to them for their help and guidance which even continues to this day when we are unsure of anything Maisie related. Also to thank them for their obvious efforts during the puppy’s upbringing and initial training which has undoubtedly led to our first dog ownership being such a joy. We would wholeheartedly recommend Kevin and Joyce to anyone who is considering getting a Coton puppy. Best wishes Paul, Jane & Maisie

Thank you Valeast

15th June 2016

Our Millie is now 20 weeks old – we picked her up about two months ago. She is gorgeous and we love her to bits. Enormous credit must go to Joyce and Kevin for their work in looking after her. They were a major part in our decision-making as their enthusiasm, care, and expertise were obvious from our first meeting. Thank you for letting us have her. Jane and Keith
