Pictures kindly sent by Richard and Kerry showing how Wilf has settled so well into his new home.

Woolly is nearly a year old and we had this fantastic email from Lynne and Greg Harper, they have done a fantastic job of bringing the gorgeous man up. Another Fallowfen toller with working potential.

Dear Amanda and Philip,

Just thought that we would send you a few photo’s of the Woolly Bear as
he approaches his first birthday on the 13th April. As I am sure you
will agree he really is a most handsome Toller!! We love him to bits
and he has a lovely nature and personality that borders on the naughty
at times. He completed a foundation course in training and has recently
started agility which he thinks is great fun. He is fairly fearless and
enjoys it all. He loves the Beach, the South Downs and Camping and
thoroughly enjoys life.
We hope that you are all ok.
With Best wishes
Lynne and Greg Harper.

Charlie is a fantastic looking dog we are really pleased how the whole litter is turning out.

Quote from his owner: “Charlie is doing great, he is learning really well and he such a pleasure to have around.” Riika Finch

Breeze is coming on strong in every way, she has no real weak points at present but I’m sure she will come into difficulty eventually like any other gun-dog. She’s so into you and eager to please, which makes her a real pleasure to work.

At this early delicate age we are still having loads of fun when training nothing to serious, im sure to get the basics right before i move on to fast.

Lord louis is the son of Amber and Rudy who we had the privilege of having back for a few days why his owners were away. At 16 weeks old this little man is amazing hes got the looks conformation and most importantly the brains. The new owners have done a fantastic job of getting him to a very high standard at such an early age, they are a real credit to louis, themselves and us.

The time is coming when we have to say good bye to this fantastic litter and let them settle into their new homes. We are extremely pleased with this litter and how they are looking. We think they are a very even litter with fantastic heads and good conformation. Its still early days but i think this is a litter with large show and working potential, so hopefully we will see this progress in the near future.

Buzz is a young English springer spaniel who is starting to find out what life should be about!

These early stages of training are very delicate, all training should be fun and within capable reach for success form the puppy.

As you can see from the video Breeze is very happy when working there is no obvious pressure on her at any point.

What i look for when i start training is a keen eye for myself and the retrieve.

At this early stage I’m starting to steady breeze with out her knowing by teasing her by pretending to throw the dummy, but its always a game.

I wouldn’t want her steady to a thrown dummy for at least 6 - 8 weeks, i want to keep her keen with drive and enthusiasm.

Always giving plenty of praise.
