Where does the affix come from? It was the last choice and made up from the first two letters in the names of the three dogs we owned when registering the affix. P for Purdy, RU for Rufus, SO for Oscar.

We had our first litter in 1982 from Birkenwald Bellisa who we borrowed from Julie Smurthwaite, Bella  produced a litter of nine puppies and we kept P Singin the Blues (Boris) and his better know brother P Electrik Blue (Oliver) their sister P Belle of the Ball (Mitzi) went on breeding terms and produced our P Rythm n Blue (Poppy). Mitzi was eventually re-homed with Anne and John Baker, starting their love of this breed.

We breed the occasional litter (generally when we want another puppy) of, good-looking working dogs. We do not follow current trends of using the latest champion or big winning dog, we use dogs we like for either their character, temperament or working ability, but they must be pleasing on the eye.                                                                                                                                            
Some of our dogs have been shown with a fair degree of success, one show champion, three other CC winners and many others that have been consistently placed and gained stud book entry. Several dogs have been successfully field trialed or entered in working tests. Many have spent their lives as working dogs either on shoots or with falconers, while the rest have been happy family pets.             
                                                                                                                                        
And why do all our dogs have Blue in the name? Simple answer, in memory of the first stud dog we used, Ch Geramers Sea Venom, known to his friends as Blue. He was, in our opinion, the best dual purpose dog in the breed.

We hope you enjoy visiting the world of Pruso, if you like this site and our dogs please contact us.
