ABOUT US
Cornfield's Kennels is run by two of us, Susan Spencer, (that's me on the left in the photo - I do the writing), and my partner Julie Prinsloo. This photo was taken in West Sussex, England, in August 1993, where the police very kindly demonstrated to us their Olderhills in action. I'm holding Ben (Olderhill Lofty) the hero of their station (and the father of our dog Wolfram). He did all the exciting cases. They'd drop him off by helicopter all over the country to track and catch criminals.
We went to England (and Germany) looking for dogs to match our own line of german shepherds in South Africa. We were lucky to have dogs that were big, courageous, fearless, protective towards children, and brilliant working dogs. The Olderhills were a match made in heaven!
Because we have lots of dogs we try to train and go for walks with them as often as possible (yes, all together in a huge pack! ) so that they all get a bit of attention. We're lucky to live in the bush where we can walk with so many dogs! Except for bitches on heat, most of our dogs live around our house in a big pack. The kennels that we have are large thatched-roofed houses with runs in front of them. Our puppies are all born in our house and stay there for the first few weeks before going outside into these kennels.
