We attended Midland Cocker Spaniel Club Championship Show today. There was a friendly atmosphere and only a short drive!

We decided that as Ribbon was looking so well, we would take her for a day out. She was 1st in Special Open Bitch, but more importantly really enjoyed her day. It was also lovely for her to see Beryl Edwards, her breeder, who she still remembers so well!!

All the photo’s below were taken by Shel Cowles…thanks for the time you take to capture our dogs…..

Poppy was placed 3rd in a strong Limit class, Hugo was placed 3rd in Post Graduate and Dolly was placed 4th in AOC Puppy.

Dottie (Quintavia Stars in the Sky) was placed 2nd in Limit and our lovely chocolate boy Hugo was 3rd in Undergraduate Dog. Poppy was unplaced but showed herself off beautifully in the big ring.

It was lovely to catch up with friends and Quintavia Cocker owners who come along to support us.

Quintavia Show Stopper recently celebrated his 10th Birthday. He still behaves like a 10 month old and is still as lively as a puppy! I took this photo of him today. He is besotted with me as I am him and he appears to be smiling at me in this photo. He is a very special boy....
