Based in North East England, I began training and working Labradors and Spaniels for picking up in the shooting field. This progressed to competing in local working tests with Labradors and subsequently retriever field trials.
I have represented the England Retriever Gundog Team with: FTCh Lowforge Aragon Of Leacaz, FTCh Troddenmills Beck And Call Of Leacaz FTW Lowforge Glenaveigh Of Leacaz I am delighted to have trained Three Field Trial Champions in the Leacaz Kennels and am very proud of all my dogs.
As a Kennel Club 'A' panel Field Trial Retriever judge; I have judged working tests and field trials throughout the UK and Europe. I can provide training sessions for groups and individuals; which take place on a variety of ground and terrain. I also take part in Gundog demonstrations such as the Galloway Fair at Drumlanrig Castle. I occasionally have Labrador and Spaniel pups available with details on the litters page. Should you require details of stud dog services or part trained dogs available, please get in touch. |
