We’re Michael & Linda – the owners of Collaton Kennels.
We opened the Kennels in 2004 and have loved building the business and getting to know all our customers, the two-footed and the four-footed ones. We both have a business background, Linda is a pharmacist, and both share an absolute love of animals.
We have both been involved in the showing, breeding and judging of dogs all our lives and still show and breed Norfolk Terriers and Dalmatians.
We’re proud to introduce to the great team we have here at the Kennels.
Hi I’m Kyle
I started working here at Collaton Kennels as part of my work experience whilst still studying at school. I then went on to become a full time member of the Collaton team.
I studied a Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management at Moulton College, achieving 3 distinctions. This is my dog, Blaze, who I show in my spare time.
Hello I’m Lizzie
I started working at Collaton in the summer of 2016. In my time here, I have learned so much about so many different breeds and how they should be cared for individually. I’ve also really enjoyed getting to know our regular customers over the years and meeting new ones.
This is my labrador Poppy and her little friend Alfie – they both love going for long, muddy walks in the countryside!
Hi I’m Georgia
I started working here at Collaton Kennels in the winter of 2021. I studied at Moulton College and left with a diploma. My knowledge has widened in so many ways about all the different breeds of dogs since working here. I very much enjoy caring for all of our customers’ dogs and meeting all of their needs.
This is me with my two fox red Labradors, Loki & Ralph, out on one of our lovely walks!
Hello I’m Katie
I started working at Collaton Kennels in 2021 for my work placement at Moulton College where I studied Level 3 Animal Management. I now work here full time, continuing to learn new things everyday. I have grown up being around animals. I have 4 dogs and am lucky enough to have my own horse.
This is Delilah doing what she loves most!
Hi I’m Katie
I’ve been working here since autumn 2023 after having a career change from working at a children’s petting farm. I have gained valuable experience of kennels as well as learning new breeds.
Alongside working I have further extended my canine knowledge by enrolling in extra courses from home such as canine behaviour and training and canine first aid.
