Welcome to our Website

The Original of this fantastic Coloured Pencil Portrait of some of our dogs was done by Phil Burbidge.
He does do some commission work, so if you are interested please get in-touch.
[Hopefully this site will be kept more up to date, as I hope to be able to keep this one updated myself]
Our Goldens come in any shade of gold or cream allowed within
the Kennel Club Breed Standard

Except for one old Black Working Cocker

This is 2 of the Chocolate Drops, Chocdrops or Cocsux Spaniels, namely Tucker (sat) & his younger full sister Twig

This photo was taken above Deakin Cottage where we lived at the time. It was just too good a photo to leave out of the Purbarn Website !
We are Jenny and Richard (Frankland) Mace, we met through our mutual love of dogs and the countryside and after being together for 11 years we became Mr & Mrs on the 19th March 2005. We had Storm & Hail (one of Storm's Son's) at the wedding.

When I moved in with Rich in Cirencester, in the heart of the Cotswolds I had 10 Golden's & Rich had a mix of Spaniels and Spaniel crosses + a Lab cross Golden, amounting to 7 in total.
I, Jenny have owned the Affix PURBARN since the early 70’s when I had my first Golden. Richard is a Gamekeeper and now also the Shoot Proprietor, he has always been a Spaniel man, but now owns some of the Golden's in partnership with me, this means he can show them in the Gamekeeper's Classes at Crufts, where he has not only represented our Purbarn Golden's, but also the Golden Retriever Breed as the Working Gundog it should be in the Main Ring at Crufts.
We still have the Spaniels and started our own line of Chocolate Working Spaniels, which all started in 1997 with a mating between a pure bred Black Working Cocker 'Bib' and a Sussex Spaniel 'Ellie'. So Rich calls them Cocsux Spaniels. We also have some Ornamental Pheasants including Peacocks, some Guinea Fowl, all the chickens and some Bronze Turkeys and the pond full of Koi Carp & we added Fantail Doves to the Menagerie for Richards 60 birthday present in 2011.
We still have living with us the Trevacat Ragdoll Cats, but my daughter Sally is going to take over the breeding of these in the future.
This was an old kennel which we converted into a spacious new cattery for our 3 Queens to live together in.

This is Chancie [Trevacat Bi chance]
She was out of our Tina [Swisha Valantina] and she is a stunningly marked Seal Bi-colour.
