Picking up

Today was Remus's first day out this season . We have had a lovely day with some nice retrieves and lots of sitting patiently for drives to come through !! 

Remus shows that a clean, nicely trimmed Flat Coat looks good whatever discipline it is doing!

The new arrivals .....






Here are the latest additions to the Rainesgift Household .... very much time wasters at the moment !!

Shooting Season begins in earnest

The Shooting season has begun with Clemence going out first ... the weather was absolutely red hot but Clem kept going. At the end of one drive all the dogs of the Shoot ended up in the pond together which was a fantastic sight , Labradors, GWP, American Cockers, Border Terriers and Springer Spaniels but unfortunately NO CAMERA !!!!

I have added a photo of Tansy , one of the Remus/ Ellie Mae puppies on her first Shoot

South Wales Kennel Association

With a car full of hounds Little Hayley and I headed out for Builth Wells on Friday morning to watch Mr Ronaldo Ross in the hot seat .. 
Remus gained a very respectable 5th in a Limit Class full of dogs with a lot more maturity than his nibs
The class was won by Derbyshire's own Kelly Holland and the Swedish Import Calzeat Causa Commotion for Flatcharm better known as "Denver" ....who then went on to take to their 3rd CC. Massive Big Hugs to My DUDES xxxx 
Travelling buddy Rainesgift Hucklebery Finn to Lizzlog won Second to Denver in Limit 
The girls were up next with Clemence ( back on full strength Clemmie badness) winning a Second in a very strong Limit Class and a still very coat-less Luna doing very well in Open with a Third!!
16 dogs with Rainesgift breeding were placed by Mr Ross including my travelling buddies Lizzlog Laceys Enigma and the Rosie /Denver "Kisses"puppies Hattie and Lilly .
Denver and Rainesgift Fleur De lis for Woodfinch's daughter Abby ( Woodfinch Lorelei) went Best Puppy in Breed.
