Meet the Breeder
About Cotonamour
Hi, I’m Lisa Harris, a licensed breeder of beautiful Coton de Tulear puppies based in East Sussex, UK.
My journey with Cotons began in 2008, when I first fell in love with the breed’s affectionate nature, intelligence and charming personalities. In 2012, I began my professional dog grooming career and have now worked as a professional dog stylist for over 12 years. I am City & Guilds qualified and have spent years working hands-on with dogs of all breeds, gaining invaluable experience in canine care, behaviour and wellbeing.
I currently own six beloved Cotons, who are a huge part of my everyday life. Alongside breeding, I regularly attend Crufts and local dog shows, where I enjoy showcasing the breed and connecting with fellow dog enthusiasts.
My dogs are raised in a loving home environment and are fully health tested, with a strong focus on temperament, health and early socialisation.
As a small-scale licensed breeder, my goal is to raise happy, confident puppies that will become wonderful lifelong companions for their future families.
Show Success
My life has been defined by a deep love for dogs, a journey that began over two decades ago. For more than 21 years, I have dedicated myself to the Coton de Tulear breed here in the UK, following a path that started in professional grooming. That early experience taught me the vital importance of gentle handling and individual care, values that remain at the heart of my breeding today.
My achievements in the show ring are a point of pride, reflecting my commitment to the breed standards and health. However, my greatest joy comes from the quiet moments at home. I am not a large kennel; I am a dedicated breeder raising puppies in my small family home, where every dog is a cherished member, receiving constant love and socialisation.
Breeding is a personal mission for me. I focus on quality and temperament, ensuring each puppy is raised in a warm environment before they transition to their new homes. It is a labor of love, and I take great care in personally overseeing every aspect of my dogs well-being and happiness.
