The award winners and judges.

By Phil Wagland

Tuesday, 13 January 2009

The North Midland Area of the United Retriever Club held training class tests at Cunliffe House, Derbyshire.

By kind invitation of Mr and Mrs R. Dickson and judged by Anne and Mick Austin, the event was generously sponsored by Alpha.

Taking place in pleasant weather and involving marked and blind retrieves from pasture and brashings and jumps over fences, the 30 dogs and handlers enjoyed this conclusion to their training season.
