Hershcoco Kennels Limited was established in 2015 by owner and trainer Terry O’Riordan, whose passion for working dogs began in the fields of the South East. Our foundation started with a team of beautifully trained chocolate Labradors, working reliably on local shoots and estates across Essex.
After years of watching the calm, focused performance of our dogs in the field, other handlers and gun owners began asking: “Can we have a puppy from her?” That growing interest sparked what would become Hershcoco Kennels – a breeding programme rooted in ability, temperament, and trust.

Since then, we’ve proudly raised Labradors, Labradoodles, and Goldadors who have gone on to do incredible things:
- Assistance dogs for the disabled
- Emotional support and mental health companion dogs
- Autism therapy dogs for children
- Detection dogs working in enforcement
- Crufts competitors in agility and obedience
We don’t just breed beautiful dogs — we raise capable, confident companions with the brains and balance to suit families, working homes, and specialist environments alike.
Whether you’re looking for a loyal working companion or a calm, loving family dog, you’ll find unmatched potential in a Hershcoco pup.
