Cornwall Gundog Club – Open Show
One of my favourite venues for the dog show and today was cold but dry. Cocker judge for today was Mrs Chris Cook (Springstein). Zorro won his Junior class and RBOB whilst Ramona won her Open class, BOB and BEST IN SHOW under Mrs S Ross (Sokenlea/Rosselle)
Midland Cocker Spaniel Club – Championship Show
Excellent day at this show – Zorro won 1st in his junior class and Timmy won 1st in his Yearling class and shortlist for the CC under breed specialist – Mark Collins (Candyke). Ramona won 1st in her Yearling class under breed specialist – Sandy Platt (Charbonnel) so a good day all round
South Western Gundog Club – Open Show
Went to the Matford Centre at Exeter for this well run friendly show. We had a fantastic day all round – Zorro won his junior class and best dog under Mrs Liz Harper (Pitswarren), whilst Ramona won her open class, best bitch, best of breed and RBIS under Mr Peter Harper (Pitswarren). Our Pointer, Fleur (Dalens Icicle at Manchela) was entered in Junior under Mrs Liz Harper where there were four entries and delighted us be enjoying herself (she has been very spooky and this is the first time she decided to enjoy herself). She won 2nd in her class, beaten only by her sister who also won BOB – sooooo pleased with our girl
Crufts
Early to start but came home with the three best dogs in the show!
Ramona won VHC in her class of 29, Zorro won Res in his class of 26 & Timmy won 3rd in his class of 26

Congratulations to all – you deserved to be there!
Hants & Sussex Cocker Spaniel Club – Championship Show
I took Ramona to this show on her own under judge: Mr Andrew Jones (Shenmore) where she won 2nd in Junior – well done to Sam Whiting with her champion bitch for winning CC & BIS
