Last year Lynwater Solar Beam came home, this nice roan-orange english cocker, shown in the picture, has now two and a half years old and a very good currículo in exhibitions in England and Scotland. Where it has won 1 CC and 2 RCC.

It is our intention to put it into the show as soon as possible and the dog is used to its new home and its new situation and climate, as coming from a colder country they use to be affected from the changes. Lets acknowledge Elizabeth MacLean for having provided us with such a recognized quality.


XX – Spaniels Monográfica Valladolid 2005

Unfortunately due to unexpected problems out of our will, this year we could not attend, as we would have liked, to the XX Spaniels Monográfica Valladolid 2005 held in this town together with the National Exhibition of Valladolid.

Although our dogs could not be present (as said before) this Monografica promised to be attractive and well organised, thanks to the cooperation of the Canina Castellana, that provided all necesary means, like every year, in order we could hold our Monografica Exhibition with the best and most confortable way for the exhibitors and associates of the Spaniel Club of Spain.

Nevertheles, we want to highligh the good path of a dog from our afix, so nicely presented by our friend Luis (Luyoam); this dog is Kokkan de la Ribera Aladino, already winner of the race in the National Exhibition of Zaragoza 2005, that hapily, for us and for its owner, was the winner of the CAC in the open class of Particolor Males in the Monografica. With this new score it has almost assured its championship. From this lines, our congratulations to Luis and Yolada for their good practices and their devotion.
