FTCH Norbeck Rinus - Seth (FTCH Wernffrwd Cymru Du x FTCH Parkbeck Eeagle)

A true gentleman of a cocker, a very sound and a great all rounder. Well deserving of his title.

Nancarrow Braemar - Braemar (FTCH Swallowlaw Snipe x Wernffrwd Nerys)

Bred by the late Hedley Millington in Cornwall. Outstanding retrieving ability and keen hunter. Talents he has passed on to his offspring - Father of Contrail Cockle.

FTAW Rowston Sting - Barley (FTCH Maesydderwen Kestrel x FTCH Rowston Imp)

‘Farewell to a friend’. Mother of Contrail Crackerjack.

FTW Contrail Crackerjack - Magic (FTCH Maesydderwen Jackdaw x FTAW Rowston Sting)

Rated as one of the top cocker bitches in the country at the time. Won countless FT awards and ‘Guns Choice’ at Novice and Open level. Member of the Scottish International Gundog Team 2003. Also mum to Contrail Conundrum (Tangle), who has gone on to help pioneer Medical Detection Dogs. Read about all him.

FTAW Contrail Chimera - Rolo (FTCH Maesydderwen Kestrel x FTW Contrail Crackerjack)

Small fast stylish bitch with a great cocker action and an impish nature to go with it. Daughter of Contrail Crackerjack.

FTAW Contrail Leo (FTCH Norbeck Rinus x FTAW Contrail Chimera)

A truly strong stamp of a cocker dog, he was all ‘Boy’. Hunting and retrieving ‘par excellence’ but not for the faint hearted to handle though. Out of Chimera to Churchview Tyne.

Churchview Tyne of Contrail - Tyne (FTCH Norbeck Rinus x FTCH Norbeck Hannah's Pet)

He was a nice little cocker from John Bailey’s Kennel. Good all round cocker with super action and game finding ability.

FTAW Quarryford Gemma - Muppet (FTCH Jenoren Dougal x FTAW Jazz Moods)

A new bitch line into the kennel bred by my good friend Dougie Gibson by Eddie Scotts FTCH dog at the time ‘Jenoren Dougal’. A delightful gentle bitch that was easy to train with lots of character about her and one of my ‘best mates’. Produced Contrail Cockle when put to Nancarrow Braemar Sadly missed.

Open FTAW Contrail Cockle - Lulu (Nancarrow Braemar x FTAW Quarryford Gemma)

By Braemar out of Muppet. I was greatly flattered when Ian Openshaw approached me to buy her! Of course she was not for sale although Ian most certainly would have made her up to Champion. Super retriever which has come down from her Sires side from FTCH Swallowlaw Snipe via Nancarrow Braemar. Very honest bitch who was desperate to please. Won many FT awards in Open having won out of Novice on her 4th trial by coming second at SFTA’s open cocker stake in Nov’ 2003. Represented Scotland in the International in 2003.

Ballencleach Hazel - Jasmine (Churchview Tyne x Pop Socks)

(Pop Socks off Jack Windle's Jordieland Cockers)

I trained up Jasmine's mother ‘Pop Socks’ for a friend of mine in 2006 and was so impressed with the little bitch I asked for a pup out of her. Jasmine is by Churchview Tyne and shows amazing natural ability both in ‘taking lines’ and hunting and marking. (I once saw her litter brother take a 150 metre line on a legged rabbit)

Contrail Cocksure - Fifi (FTW Goldengroves Gripper x Open FTAW Contrail Cockle)

A small fast black cocker bitch (with a very high opinion of herself!!) Daughter of ‘OFTAW Contrail Cockle’ she showed all the talented qualities of her mother.
