Working Gundog Test

Sunday 14^th April 2013

The Grampian Gundog Clubs Annual (A.V. Retriever) Gundog Working Test, sponsored by CSJ,  was held at Phones Estate, By Newtonmore, Inverness-shire on Sunday 14^th April 2013.

It was a great day with an excellent range of tests, set up by judges Les McLean, Mike Rolland, John MacColl and Ally Kennedy.  The morning started off with heavy rain that luckily cleared up before the show was underway and turned into a good day.

This year again, we had  an excellent turnout for the event with a total of 87 retrievers competing in the various Stakes. All the handlers appeared to enjoy the event and the feedback from our competitors has been excellent. Here are the results:
