Del Richards

Scheme Administrator, Del Richards

Del was a founder member of the Southern Newfoundland Club and has a long history of working to improve the health and longevity of the breed. As the administrator of the scheme, Del is further working to ensure litters produced by our members have had the health test screening carried out on the parents in order to produce Newfoundlands with the best chances of good health.

With more than 30 years of close involvement with the breed, Del is well known as a Newfoundland breeder, exhibitor and as a Championship Show judge.


Del is happy to receive enquiries from eligible breeders about the Better Breeders Scheme and processes all requests for membership. Advertisements of litters due or puppies for sale are also handled by Del.
