Tenayshus Griffons
Griffon Bruxellois Dog Breeder - SA
A more special breed of dog you wouldnt find than the Griffon Bruxellois, they are fabulous family pets, cat like, friendly and so loving. They co exist happily with our cats and help us turn out dog socialised Burmilla and Mandalay kittens.
We only have the occasional litter but when we do I am besotted with these little charmers. Griffons are lively happy and loving little dogs. They come in Rough and Smooth coat , however as the Rough requires hand stripping I prefer the Smooth coat.
At the moment I only breed in Red, although I am very keen to acquire a Black. There is always a waiting list for our puppies, we only breed from health tested dogs as much as possible.

Our standards & practices
Health testing & screening
Question. Do you health test appropriately (eg hip and elbow X-ray scoring, DNA testing), and understand the genetic issues that may affect your breed? If your breed is prone to health issues, what are they, and what testing practices do you have in place?
Answer. Yes.Griffons dont have any testing requirements and most breeders dont do much testing. I do hips for my own interests sake, hearts are checked by a visiting Cardiologist, I also like eye test for PRA and PPM. All dogs are thoroughly vet checked, including patellas, and breathing ability.
Preparation & socialisation
Question. Do you ensure that your puppies are properly socialised?
Answer. Yes.Puppies are reared in our family room with our other dogs and our kittens.
Placement & matching
Question. Is making sure your puppies go to the right homes a priority? How do you ensure they are placed in loving, responsible homes?
Answer. Yes.I interview extensively, most of my puppy enquiries come through personal reference.
Question. Do you have any of the following: conditions of sale, health guarantee or warranty, de-sexing agreement, a buyer questionnaire, verbal or personal interview?
Answer. Yes.Written Questionaire, personal facetime video if unable to visit personally and a sales contract.
Ongoing support
Question. Do you offer ongoing support?
Answer. Yes.I am always available to answer questions
Question. Do you assist the buyer with re-homing an animal that was purchased from you if they are unable to keep it?
Answer. Yes.I prefer to assist while the dog is living with the owner, but have also taken dogs back. I am careful about the age of my purchasers to ensure that they outlive their dog.
