About Us
Springer Hills Farm is a small kennel located in Bay City, WI. It is a short 45-minute drive outside the twin cities. Springer’s are our passion and we have been dedicated to raising quality UK imported lines for 6 years now. We are dedicated to raising superior family dogs that Love to Hunt. Our pups have been used for agility, obedience, Hunting and Therapy. Our dogs are all raised family style inside our home where they receive the special attention and proper socialization skills they deserve. Our puppies are born and raised in the house. They are handled from the minute they are born-until the time they leave..Our kids help in the socialization process-once the pups get a bit older. We have 40 acres of open fields and woods-which gives the dogs plenty of room to run and explore. Visitors are always welcome on the weekends we just ask that you give us a call in advance to make sure we will be home. Please remember to wear proper attire for a farm.
The Benefits of the United Kennel Club
We breed Tri-Colored English Springer Spaniels. We strive to breed dogs out of old style european or european/us cross bloodlines. We feel having the imported lines offer genetically cleaner bloodlines due to the restrictions on breeding. The AKC is the world’s largest performance purebred dog registry in the world. The UKC supports the “total dog” philosophy unlike other registries that place emphasis on a dog’s looks. This allows better temperament, trainability, and an all around better dog.
Rules for visiting:
1. No outside animals for the health and safety of all.
2. Wash your hands with sanitizers.

What to expect when you bring your puppy home:
- We recommend that you bring your puppy in for its initial vet exam within the first 3 days.
- We feed our dogs Diamond brand naturals small breed puppy twice a day. Your puppy will come home with some provided food. If you plan on switching to your own food we recommend that you mix the food 1/2 and 1/2 for the first week at least.
- Don't forget to schedule your puppies continued booster shots.
- We recommend that if you plan on crate training your puppy that you do so right away so the puppy gets use to it. This not only helps with crate training but also with potty training. The puppy should soon find the crate as a sanctuary and not a place of discipline.
- Don't forget to allow your puppy to relieve its self at least once every two hours until you are able to recognize "the look".
- Frequent leash training will help with obedience as well as socialization.
As always, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me! I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
