Breed : English Springer Spaniel
Second Frances Clasby Memorial Veteran Stakes - 10yrs + (4 entries)
A stunning old boy who was 10 last Nov, back for 2nd place after a 9 yr break. He is our once in a lifetime dog. If you sailed the seven seas you would not find a more loyal or loving dog as him. Well done Elliott. Thanks also to John & Joan Palmer of Roandew Kennels for breeding such a wonderful dog.
Elliott started his show career with a bang winning many First's, Best Puppy and Best of Breed's and many Cups and Trophys as he did not particularly enjoy being shown, preferring to run in fields and get very dirty he was given a break, he came back for the Frances Clasby and made me very proud of him.
He started on a good note and will now retire on a good note and will carry on enjoying his walks in Moors Valley Country Park, his favourite place, with his best buddy Rocco the Bracco.
Happy Retirement Elly
