When we lost Bailey, our 16-year-old Jack Russell Terrier, in Dec 2022, our world collapsed. He was genuinely our best friend, and, to be honest, got Nicky and me through some dark times. We wondered if we would ever want to experience that feeling of having to leave a friend again. One of the things we had to consider, was not only our grieving, but the effect that losing Bailey was having on our other dog Rocket. He was with Bailey from a puppy, and it was clear that he, too, was missing his big brother. We finally made the decision to get another dog, and I was searching for many months when, through the Kennel Club, I found Sarah and Draytogo. Having had previous experience of Jacks, this time we wanted a ‘Smooth Parson Russell Terrier’ (PRT). This was a long journey as they are not very common, and to find the very best takes time. As a military man, I was instantly blown away by Sarah’s story of how Draytogo came to be. Her love, not only for what she does, but her love of the PRT, is infectious, and we felt that we had made the right connection straight away. This was to be several months before even coming to own our little PRT ‘Parsnip’. The fact that we had to earn Sarah’s trust and be the right family for Parsnip, reassured us that we, too, had met the right person, and after visiting Sarah at her wonderful home in Lincolnshire, our magical journey had begun. Parsnip was born on the 20th July 24, and from the very moment of her coming into the world, Sarah began our connection with regular videos, photos, and pupdates. We finally collected Parsnip in September and brought her home to the West Country, where she finally got to meet Rocket and her new family. Nicky and I just wanted to say thank you, Sarah, for bringing Parsnip into our lives. Whilst we would never want to replace Bailey, you have given us another opportunity to share in one of life’s most rewarding and memorable experiences. Love Tony, Nicky & Rocket.

Hi Sarah I hope you are well. I wanted to write you a message to say ‘thank you’ and to give you an update on cherished Cecil, who is now 6months old! Where has the time gone!? Cecil is so loved by us and everyone we meet on a day to day basis ! I have never been stopped so many times for people to say how handsome and good looking he is. Our walks take twice as long as so do our pub visits as everyone wants to come and say hello! So thank you for breeding such a handsome pup, who is intelligent and confident. Cecil is never shy of making new dog friends (and human friends), and is always up for playing with any breed or size; including German Shepherds amongst them. He’s completed puppy school and has now completed The Kennel Club Good Citizen Puppy award, we are now working on bronze. The trainers there love him and compliment us on how well trained and willing to learn he is. Agility will be on the cards once he turns one. He’s turning into a good walker/ runner and has recently found his love of a tennis ball, along with water! the 2 combined, is hours of entertainment for him (and us!). He’s also found his boating/ paddleboarding legs as we are out on the water most days this summer exploring our stretch of the river. In short, thank you for allowing us to have one of your many prized possessions but know he is so loved by us and well and truly looked after (he’s allowed to sleep in the bed which I swore I would never do when I owned a dog 🤣). As I write this at my desk, he’s a sleep on the floor on my feet, keeping them warm, never far from my side! I hope you are well, and hopefully one day we will swing by your direction to call in for you to see Cecil yourself. All the best, Alex and Harry and Cecil .

We are so glad we found Sarah and her amazing dogs. We had been looking for a Parson Russell and came across Draytogo. Hoshi was expecting and we put our name down for a puppy. That’s when the wonderful journey began. Sarah sent regular updates on Hoshi’s progress. She even sent Hoshi’s scan. When the puppies were born, we had weekly ‘pup-dates’ and plenty of photos. It was very exciting seeing your puppy from birth. We went to meet Stanley ( our pup) when he was 4 weeks old and we met Hoshi and his dad Hector. We collected him at 8 weeks. Stanley is adorable. He is funny, playful and sweet and he has enriched our lives. I cannot imagine being without him. Sarah breeds happy, healthy, good natured dogs and the whole experience from the start was exciting and fun. Thank you, Sarah from the bottom of our hearts. We have a new best friend and we are looking forward to years of joy with Stanley.”

We cannot thank Sarah enough for allowing us to have one of her beautiful puppies (Barry). When our previous terrier Ozzie was diagnosed with a terminal disease and after doing extensive homework regarding breeders of PRTs I made contact with Sarah . Sarah freely offered advice and we kept in contact the last couple of years until Ozzie was taken from us . We couldn't have chosen a better breeder for our wonderful PRT.

Having spent a couple of years looking on the Internet for a Parsons Russell, myself and my husband decided we wanted to know exactly what we were getting and came across Sarah Porter of Draytogo. We took this route because she is a registered breeder and known to the Kennel Club. We paid a deposit (necessary to secure your puppy) and we were then invited to join her face book group to enable us to follow our chosen puppy over the weeks that followed which was so exciting. We were then invited to meet Sarah, her team and our puppy. Such an excellent service. We met not only the parents but grandparents as well .. Not a service you get usually! Sarah was and is very passionate and knowledgeable about her Parsons and her team of dogs are simply amazing. We collected our puppy in March and have named her Bodhi. She came vaccinated and chipped. The most important thing for us is not only that Bodhi is just a delightful dog, but that Sarah breeds for temperament. Bodhi is charming, well behaved and stunning. Sarah has always been on hand if we need any advise on training as well, which she does gladly and with care and enthusiasm. We would not hesitate to recommend her or indeed to have another of her wonderfull dogs. In short the whole experience was just wonderfull. Thank you Sarah ( and the team of course).

Ahhh hello, Sarah. So lovely to hear from you. Little Pesto is growing up... but still our gorgeous Puppy! She is just finishing her first season which made her a little fed up as she was trapped on the lead and couldn’t chase pheasants across the fields! Only a couple more days now we think. My feedback about your breeding and business is totally positive... you were helpful, knowledgeable and honest about genetic issues and the like (new for us after the Crumble issue!). Most importantly, we loved how much you loved all the puppies when we came to your home. I guess with your new kennels etc it looks more “professional” now, but for us it wasn’t an issue as you clearly loved your brood! I guess it’s easier with a purpose built set up though. The puppy pack and information was great and I don’t think you can add anything. I’ll write you a review any day and so will Pesto. She’s waiting to go to grandma’s house for supper (next door). All the kids have got home and she’s patiently waiting to play. She had a staffie bull terrier over today called Wilson. She wanted to play with her endless energy. He was podgy and older than her so not very interested. She barked at him and the play date was over!!!! 😂. Lots of love 💕 X Tim and Sally

Hi Sarah Hope you and the team are all well. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for Olive. She is very much Sam’s dog and is devoted to him, and him to her. A real bond, endless beach walks and times spent together. From my perspective, after a lifetime of having dogs of various breeds, I have rarely.... if ever... come across such a lovely dog. The most beautiful temperament, intelligent, high energy, very affectionate and just a joy to have around all of us. Congratulations on breeding such wonderful dogs. I know how much dedication, hard work and effort you put in... so this is no accident, but a real testament to your commitment. Thank you for Olive! I know that we will want another soon...!!! Very best Nick

A rare and wonderful breeder with a genuine focus on health, temperament and standard. I wanted a PRT for so long and I now have the most joyful and clever dog who has grown to be a confident and stunning, head-turning adult. Sarah cares for her pups long after they have flown the nest and is always a source of wisdom. Worth getting into that long waiting list.

Absolutely fantastic, he has a wonderful temperament. He is leaning at a great rate and is responding to recall by whistle very well when off the lead. I may see about getting him involved in Hoopers.

Happy Customer

Having taken the mighty decision to have my first pet I contacted Sarah, I had wanted my own little terrier for years. After a short while Sarah contacted me with the choice of the pups. Once I had chosen Sarah sent me regular updates, photos and videos. It was during this period I felt a mix of excitement and trepidation but I needn’t have worried, Sarah couldn’t have been more helpful. Once I had collected George I left excited and confident and with Sarah’s help ‘prepared’. When George is awake I now have the most tactile, loyal, playful and handsome best mate I could have ever wished for. Thank you Sarah’.

Happy Customer

Just want to say that Sarah is an amazing breeder, all the dogs in her litter were stunning, it was so hard to choose which one! Sarah takes time to get to know you to ensure that you understand that you and your dog are best for each other. Cody is the best dog I could ask for and I’m so happy to have him
