Sanjika

Sanjika dogs waiting for the off!!!!!!

Robyn with Sanjika Sorrento at Fratte Terme in Italy, April 2005. Judge Dr Luca Massimino.

Robyn has been the highest placed junior handler within the breed for the last few years, but one her highlights was winning our first CC with Sanjika Nyika at Bournemouth in 2006.

We have owned spinoni since 1996. We obtained a Field Trial award with our first spinone, and since then all spinone, bought or bred have been shown and worked. Mainly on the local shoot as picking up dogs. We have represented this shoot at the BASC class at Crufts and achieved a 3rd place with Team Sanjika at Waddesdon in 2004.
2004 also so our first trip to Italy, I went first with Sanjika Spirit of Taz and mated her to an Italian Working Champion Ferentum Brutus. Later that year Stuart and Robyn took Sanjika Sorrento and Sanjika Spirit of Taz and obtained working awards with both dogs, this meant that in April 2005 when we entered the Raduno they could enter the working class, and Sanjika Sorrento was awarded the CAC from this class. Sanjika Spirit of Taz was awarded an Excellant. Sanjika Amalfi did the double by receiving an excellant at the show and very good working.
Bertinoro, Italy April 2008. 5 dogs graded excellent, Jumanji 2nd and Nyika 3rd in their classes. Brace and Team classes both won, only found out when we recieved an Italian magazine with the information in - What a surprise!!!!
