Edouard Leclercq in Dénia

Let me introduce myself: I’m Edouard Leclercq. As you can probably guess from my name, I’m French!

Dogs have always been a part of my life — both during my childhood and throughout my adult years. My love story with these wonderful creatures began when I was just a child.

From the little Chihuahua who kept me company as a boy, to the majestic Great Dane who taught me about loyalty and greatness, every dog has left an indelible mark on my heart.

My passion for dogs eventually led me to turn this passion into my profession. Several decades ago, I opened my first kennel in Belgium — a place where I could lovingly raise and care for these amazing animals. I dedicated years to studying different breeds, learning the specific needs of each one, and creating a healthy, loving environment for my dogs.

However, life had unexpected changes in store for me. I moved to Spain with my family in search of new opportunities, but something was deeply missing. My love for dogs and my calling as a breeder were always present in my heart. After finding a spacious property where I could continue my passion, I embarked on a journey across Spain in search of exceptional breeding dogs.

And that’s how Criadero 4Patas was born — a dream come true!

At Criadero 4Patas, our mission is to preserve the best bloodlines while always prioritizing the well-being of our dogs. We are committed to offering healthy, well-socialized puppies who are ready to become beloved members of families around the world. Every day, we continue to grow through our love for dogs and our dedication to their quality of life.

Our story is one of love, dedication, and deep respect for these four-legged companions who bring so much joy into our lives.
