About us
Myself (Jo Dalton) and my husband (Paul Dalton) are very experienced owners and fully inspected Local Authority 5 star rated licensed breeders of Boston Terriers, Whippets & Standard and Miniature Smooth Hair Dachshunds, having both owned and been involved in dogs all of our lives. We have been breeding as a husband and wife team since 2000 and have owned, bred and loved Boston Terrier’s since 2009, Whippets from 2017 and more recently in early 2023 gone back into Dachshunds having both Standard and Miniature smooth hair. Together we are "Mumuland Kennels" ironically we don't actually own any physical dog kennels as all of our dogs live in our home as part of our family.
We were active members and big advocates of the Kennel Clubs Assured Breeder scheme from when we joined in 2010 until it finished in January 2025.

We strive to breed happy, healthy dogs, who are of sound temperament and type who conform to the breed standard for our chosen breeds. Therefore we health test all of our breeding dogs. The health tests for our Bostons include patella scoring, heart testing and regular BVA Eye examinations for Late Onset Hereditary Cataracts. In addition to this all of our Bostons are either 'DNA tested Clear' or born 'Hereditary Clear' of Juvenile Hereditary Cataracts.
Although Whippets are on the whole one the healthiest breeds that exist - we do have our whippets heart tested by a cardiologist annually.
Our Miniature Dachshunds are either DNA Tested clear or born hereditary clear of PRA eye disease. We also have all of our Dachshunds (both standard & mini) screened annually under the BVA Eye testing scheme and will be having them all IVDD screened between the ages of 24-48 months.
