Willow - Bournemouth 2012. Photo Shel Cowles

The sun was shining with a nice breeze which made it ideal conditions for the dogs. Can’t believe what a fantastic week I have had with the two girls. Once again Ellie won Minor Puppy but went further winning Best Puppy in Breed and Gundog Puppy group 3. (Thanks to April Murray for her sympathetic handling of Ellie in the unbeaten line up).  Willow won a very hotly contested Limit class and shortlisted in the last 4 for the bitch cc. Cocker judge was Andrew Jones (Shenmore) and the group judge was Mr C Mackay. Video of Willow in Limit

What a dreadful day weather wise rained hard ALL day – cockers were being judged in the main hall so that was great! Ellie won Minor Puppy and Willow won a fabulous Limit class under breed specialist judge Mrs Sue Telford (Courtmaster) – thanks again Lin for handling Ellie in the challenge so sympathetically

I had a fantastic day at National gundog with my two girls – Dykere Lavender Blue for Manchela (Ellie) and Manchela Wild Willow (Willow). Ellie won Minor Puppy and Willow won Limit and res cc under breed specialist judge Carol Welch – my thanks go to Lin Parker for handling Ellie in the challange at such short notice
