My
earliest memories of dogs is growing up in a house shared with my parents
Labradors and Kerry Blue Terriers.
I
"owned" my first dog a very long number of years ago! I did not follow my parents
dog breeds, but instead entered the
world of the HPR's - the hunt, point and retrievers, a world I have
remained true to today with the Hungarian Wire-Haired Vizsla and the Bracco Italiano. With the various dogs I have gained experience in
and competed in obedience, agility, working trials and showing. In
addition I have trained and worked a Bracco Italiano as a search dog.
No matter what field the dogs are part of, first and foremost they are
family pets. Over the years I have served on various training
and breed club committees and am currently the secretary of the Hungarian
Wire-Haired Vizsla Club of Great Britain. In addition I teach ring craft
for the show environment and when time allows, occasionally judge at
shows. Simon is a superb, long suffering dog show husband who is in
charge of bag carrying and coffee buying when required! Keeley Newman-Jones
