When considering bringing a new puppy into your home, choosing a Licensed Dog Breeder in the UK is paramount for several compelling reasons.
Primarily, a licensed breeder operates under stringent regulations set forth by local authorities, which ensures a higher standard of welfare for the dogs.
This licensing process typically involves regular inspections to verify that facilities are clean, safe, and provide adequate space and enrichment for the puppies and their parents. Furthermore, licensed breeders are legally required to prioritise the health and well-being of their animals, often conducting essential health checks and screenings for genetic conditions prevalent in specific breeds, which significantly reduces the risk of future health issues for your puppy.
By choosing a licensed breeder, you gain peace of mind, knowing that your new family member has been raised in a responsible and ethical environment, setting the foundation for a healthy, happy, and well-adjusted companion.

February 20, 2026 at 11:31 pmWe had a really positive experience with Jodie at Glamapaws when we brought home our beautiful dachshund, Mali.
From the start, Jodie was incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and always happy to answer any questions we had, which made us feel confident and reassured as first-time dachshund owners. The puppy information packs she provided were amazing and such a huge help in preparing us for Mali coming home.
She also welcomed us into her home several times so we could spend time with Mali before bringing her home, which meant a lot to us and really helped with the bonding process.
We’re so grateful for all the support and care Jodie has given, it’s clear Mali has had the best possible start in life.

February 28, 2026 at 5:46 amWe were lucky enough to get our beautiful black and tan Dachshund from Jodie at Glamapaws, and the whole experience was amazing from start to finish. From our very first contact, Jodie was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable nothing was ever too much trouble.
I had been searching for a reliable and trustworthy Dachshund breeder for quite some time without success, but the moment I spoke to Jodie, it was clear how much love, care, and dedication she puts into her puppies. Her passion really shines through in everything she does.
Our puppy is healthy, well-socialised, and has the shiniest coat. We are so excited to start taking him on all his little adventures.
Thank you so much, Jodie you truly are one in a million!

July 18, 2026 at 6:33 pmWow – where do I start!
From the very first time we got in touch with you, Jodie, we were completely blown away. You stood out from every other breeder we had spoken to, and we knew straight away that you genuinely cared about your puppies and the families they go to.
The puppy information pack you sent us as soon as we showed an interest was incredible, and then receiving not one, but three puppy packs when we collected Dolly was just amazing. The amount of thought, care, and effort you put into everything is second to none.
Not only are you an outstanding breeder, but you’re also such a lovely, kind, and genuine person. Your support didn’t stop when we brought Dolly home—you’ve continued to be there for us whenever we’ve needed advice or reassurance, and that has meant so much.
We would 100% recommend you to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, and well-loved puppy. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us. We absolutely adore Dolly, and we can’t wait to come back for another puppy in the next year or so!
Best wishes, Jodie.
Love from Cathy & Mike x

The care, love and dedication jodie has put into her dogs is obvious from the moment you meet her. She was professional, knowledgeable and always happy to answer any questions, making the whole process stress-free and enjoyable.
Our puppy arrived healthy, happy, confident and incredibly well-socialised. It’s clear that Glamapaws gives every puppy the very best start in life. The communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates and genuine care for both the puppies and their future families.
If you’re looking for an ethical, caring and trustworthy breeder who truly puts the welfare of their dogs first, I couldn’t recommend Glamapaws highly enough. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful new member of the family—we’re absolutely delighted.
