I have been training and working gundogs seriously since around 1997, although always had dogs as a child. I trained my first gundog in the late 1980s when I was still at school, and my enthusiasm for working and training dogs had continued ever since, both gundog training and obedience/pet training.

I regularly work my dogs on a number of shoots throughout the season, as well as competing in working tests and field trials.

In 2009 I was invited to start judging working tests and field trials, judging a total of three retriever field trials in the 2009/10 season, as well as various working tests, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and have various judging appointements during 2010 which I am looking forward to.

I currently have 5 dogs of my own, either current or retired FT dogs, all of which are worked throughout the shooting season.

I run weekly training classes for various standards from complete beginner through to field trial standard. People often start trying to run before they can walk in training, and here at Spinnakeu, we like to cement the basics before moving on, ensuring the best possible results.

Please see the gundog training page for further information.
