We are trying to add in suitable events for 2024.
ALL TRAINING DAYS THIS YEAR OPEN TO NON MEMBERS
The Sporting Irish Water Spaniel Club's first training of the year will now be held in Shrewsbury and not in Devon. Unfortunately, the trainer we have had for the past couple of years as advised us he is unwell and will not be able to do the training for us and we were unable to find someone to replace them in Devon.
The new venue in Shrewsbury is a place where we have visited a number of time for the Minority Breeds Working test so some of you may have been there in the past and it is a beautiful venue. https://www.facebook.com/uppershadymoor
Our trainer will be Rose Lewis who has many years of experience as Trainer, Judge and Breeder. Rose was our Judge when we hosted the Minority Breeds event two years ago and also Judged the event last year too. Rose is a mantrailing instructor which will be very interesting to hear about.
