Our daughter, Georgia (aged
14) won 2nd place in her class at Crufts 2007 out of 22 entrants!! She
was showing Hamish, our 'home bred' stud dog in the Gamekeeper's Young
Handler's class - Congratulations to Georgia & Hamish!! You can see
them below, second from the left. You can see details of Hamish on the 'Stud
Dog' page or photos of him on his 'Photos
Page'.
Harry and Rachael had
more great success in Crufts 2009. Our son Harry (aged 14) entered the Gamekeeper's Young
Handler's class and came 2nd with Indie. In the any variety retrievers picking up team event, we came 1st
overall with a team of 4 dogs out of 8 teams. We then entered against
all other variety group picking up teams and came 3rd for the Coombe
shoot. This was quite poignant, as our shoot Captain, Peter Jacques was
terminally ill and he was thrilled with the result - unfortunately, he
passed away on Friday 13th March 2009.
