Mid Sussex Working Spaniel Club held our Open cocker spaniel trial at Canal game shoot, Kent, by kind permission of Mr F Briley and Canal Game
Judges: Mark Light (A2729) and Guy Stubbings (A2805)
I would like to thank Mr Briley for allowing us to use his ground and steward of the beat.
The ground was game crop with plenty of game to enable the dogs to show themselves. The weather was perfect for the dogs, handlers and guns.
We welcomed some handlers new to trialling and hope they had an enjoyable day.
After a 2 dog run off, Awards go to:

A big thank you to all who made today successful, as it was petering on the edge of being able to go ahead due to low number of entries.
Thankyou to both judges for giving up their time today, head keeper and his team ensuring the birds were where they needed to be, guns for expertly shooting.
Thankyou to my helpers who are forever faithful and give up their time to support the trials and handlers for supporting the club and the sport. It makes the job of FT Secretary rewarding.
