The trial was held in rough cover and the dogs had to hunt for the birds. The winning dogs all managed to find a bird and have a retrieve but it was quite hard going in places for the little Cockers.
Thank you to our two judges who gave up their day for us.
We would like to thank the Savernake Estate for allowing us to hold a trial on their ground. Thanks also to the Keeper Paul Howard and his wife who looked after us very well in spite of him having a broken ankle.
Without our helpers, Alan and Sabrina Vaughan and Jane and Terry Campton the trial would not run so well, so thank you to them for giving up their day for us.
Thank you also to the team of guns who shot really well.
Finally, thank you to Skinners for providing dog food vouchers for the winners.
It was lovely to see three representatives from the parent body who came to watch the trial, and they said they really enjoyed the day.
