Islasbraw Ash, known as Harris at home, is probably one of the most versatile dogs I have ever had. He has a fabulous temperament and is a joy to be with. He is a big part of our family and happily lives in the house with our other dogs and cats.



Whilst still a relatively young dog, the success he has already had in his working career highlights his natural ability as a GSP. In 2023, I was very proud that Harris and myself were selected for the Scottish Team at the Kennel Club150th year celebration at Capesthorne Hall in Cheshire. It was a privilege to be alongside the top Retriever, Spaniel and HPR handlers from the four Nations. It was even more special as Scotland came first, and the icing on the cake was Harris being awarded the trophy for "Top Dog", as he had achieved the highest overall score in the competition.



He is also a Field Trial Award Winner and took part in the 2024 HPR Championships, where he came a very respectable second place and in addition to that also received the “Guns Award” which topped off our trialling season of 2024 perfectly.


As my working companion, he is pretty much with me all the time. He is as happy in the beating line on a shoot day being used like a ranging spaniel or being my retriever while picking up. Equally he can switch back to being my full on HPR, whilst on the Grouse moor, or low ground or trialling. He also enjoys the water and is a strong swimmer, and whilst he loves being out on the hill, he also loves his dummy work during training or at a working test.



Harris is available for stud to health tested bitches and has produced lovely pups, passing on his wonderful temperament and natural working ability; with some of his pups having a successful working career of their own
