Susan became owner of her first Springer Spaniel by default. Realising as a teacher, her dog Barney just wanted to learn and please her, she became involved in dog training. She was introduced firstly to Obedience then following on with Agility and Working Trials. On taking on another re-homed feisty working Springer, found a gun dog training club and became involved in the "Shooting" world. She now has two bitches working in the shoot season. For many years now, having qualified, she has taught basic obedience locally but, passionate about the working Springer, she has been involved in this breed's rescue for the last ten years alongside Just Springer Rescue's Liz Austin. All our Trustees will have authorised persons working for them carrying out home checks and assessing dogs, but any final decision can only be made by the relevant Trustee. |
