Last weekend I co-organised a Charity Gundog Test at Sennowe Park, which also doubled up as an Introduction to Gundog Tests for Beginners to help handlers take their first step into Working Gundog Tests.
This was originally started last year by Jennie Willimott, and I think a lot of people owe her a great big thank you for starting these events.
The money raised from the event goes to the Big C Cancer Charity
We were overwhelmed with the help and volunteers.
The Judges all gave up their free time to attend and help the handlers.
Our grateful thanks go to Judges: Gill Grummitt Sara Gadd Michael Tallamy Peter Childs

On the Sunday it was lovely to see 3 Junior Handlers taking part and doing extremely well.
We are very grateful to the Temple-Richards family for allowing us to use the beautiful Sennowe Park
We are also very grateful to Muntjac Trading and Sneyd's Wonderfeeds for sponsoring the awards and prizes.
We are also grateful to local clubs Norfolk Gundog Club, Mid Norfolk Gundog Club and Eastern Counties Retriever Society, for their help and sponsorship.
We had some fantastic prizes in the Auction and Raffle, and so thank you for these kind donations.
Also, thank you for the very posh toilets Hillstock Services Fi Waters , which all the nervous competitors very much appreciated
I personally couldn’t run this event without the fantastic help of my Caulaincourt Gundogs & Pet Dog Training team.
Thank you for all the donations and a total of £4565 was raised.
And a huge congratulations to all the handlers that took their first step in to Working tests
