Mid Sussex Working Spaniel Club held our Novice cocker spaniel at Dunstall Farm, Shoreham, Kent by kind permission of Mr G White

 

Judges: Mark Light (A2729) Marion Emery (B3673) Brody Chequer (NP4034) and Jack Walton (NP4156)

 

I would like to thank Mr White for allowing us to use his ground and steward of the beat.

 

The ground was mainly cover crop and an area of woodland, with plenty of game to enable the dogs to show themselves, more challenging for some than others.

 

The weather was perfect for the dogs, handlers and guns.

 

We welcomed some handlers new to trialling and hope they had an enjoyable day.

 

At the end of the trial only 2 dogs finished

 

Awards go to:
