WONDERFUL IRELAND

Travelling home on the ferry from Belfast after a wonderful Open field trial near Fivemiletown in Northern Ireland.

Thankyou to the German Pointer Club of Ireland, the judges and  to Tom Woods of Glenoo Sports for putting on a really fantastic competition.  Superb dog work on partridge, pheasant and snipe,  from Jerzi and Dora who both graded excellent with 2nd and 3rd placings, but the worthy winner was  Keiron Fox and his GSP who nailed his birds in style, congratulations Keiron !  So sad for this to be the last trip for now, we have made some great friends XXX cant wait to come back next season  photos courtesy Mark Johnson.

LOOK WHO'S IN ST !

Dora has managed to get a centre spread on page 22 of this weeks Shooting Times!  Thankyou to Graham Downing for a lovely report on a days shooting in December when Aytee and Quintana GSP’s worked for Anglia Sporting Shooting Agency and a great team of guns in Suffolk.

KEEPING THE FAITH

An amazing day for Jerzi today winning a First in the Brittany Club of GB Open Field Trial and qualifying for the  HPR Championships.    She has hunted, pointed and retrieved beautifully this season but flushing those pesky birds has proved difficult for her to master keeping her out of the big awards until this week, finally the penny has dropped!  🙂

Also a cofm on the same day at the Boulge Shoot Novice Trial for AYTEE JESSIE JAY better known at Myrtle.  Well done Harriet !  A great end to the season 🙂

BRILLIANT BLYTHBOROUGH

Our last walked up day for Nick Elsdon from Anglia Sporting  saw  the sun going down on the River Blyth.  Lovely company with Maureen Nixon and Quintana GSP’s, lots of birds, fabulous scent and super shooting from our guns.  Thankyou guys, and thankyou Nick, what a great season !

GOOD LUCK FOR 2017

We would like to wish all our puppies past and present a successfully and happy new year for 2017.  Plus all their owners of course!  All being well we plan to show Karat this Spring.  Do keep us posted on your plans too, we would love to hear.

Karat the week before Christmas

PERFECT START TO 2017

A fabulous sunny day spent walking up with family and friends, a few birds and lots of laughs.  Dora and Jerzi doing their job so well, but James, James and James more got away from the guns than went in the bag ! Great fun and thankyou for such a lovely day.  A marvellous end to Christmas and the New Year.

WHAT A WEEK!

Grrr, never work with children, animals or THE WEATHER ! Beastly fog, no wind and a heavy mild atmosphere and my poor dogs have struggled to find any scent at all this week.  Friday picking up for our local shoot was a disaster, where we lost more birds than we found and Saturday a walked up day with shooting over the dogs proved almost impossible.  No staunch points with birds produced from either of the Aytee dogs however hard they tried.  Testing times, come on, Blow the North wind, Blow !

EARNING THEIR KEEP :)

Aytee and Quintana GSP's worked their socks off  for the second time in  a week on another super walked up shoot in Suffolk.   Crisp, cold weather and lovely ground rewarded the guns with a bag of 30 birds and one fox !  Well done once again to our Dora and Jerzi for a good days work.

FIELD TRIALLING SUCCESS FOR MYRTLE !

Aytee Jessie Jay, better known as Myrtle has won a 2nd and a 3rd in Novice field trials during the last 7 days!   Congratulations to owner and handler Hari Lampart who deserves every bit of this success for their hard work.  Winning their latest trial on partridge I am sure Myrtle is only just getting into her stride!

ANOTHER CRACKING DAY

Aytee were joined by Quintana GSP's today at Blythborough in Suffolk working everything from heather and bracken to sugar beet, woods and roots and really nailing the sport, coming home with some superb retrieves.  Thankyou again to Nick Elsdon for asking us to work for such a great team of guns and to Maureen Nixon for sharing a lovely day.
