Living with Andrea in Devon


Jess joined Andrea and Richard in early 2004 and brought with her boundless energy and more than a little touch of mischief. Being a gundog she thinks about EVERYTHING all the time. At Open show level she took numerous Best Puppy In Breed awards, one with a group placing and on going up into Junior she took 1st place on quite a few occasions. In February 2006, at 2 years of age she was awarded Best of Breed at the Central Cornwall Open Show.

On the Championship show circuit she qualified for Crufts 2005 when she was just 7 months of age at the Welsh Kennel Club Show where she performed very well. She also qualified for Crufts 2006 at Paignton Show, showing to the best of her ability.

Since having her litter of 8 puppies (by Anibesco Phantom Of The Opra) on the 8th August 2007 she has been resting on her well earned laurels but hopes to see all her friends at the shows very soon.
