When Arisaig based Chapel Farm Stockist Fraser MacDougal was placing his latest order we spoke about his dogs including his two recent additions that Fraser hopes to Trial. Thanks for the photo Fraser, great looking dogs. Training is going well and fingers crossed for the future.

Buccleuch Chapel Farm Kennels Assistant Ashlyn has been spending time helping with the training of young Labrador Buccleuch Harmony, “Jetta”. On this day she was involved with water retrieves. There happened to be a photographer present who was taking pictures of the dogs in action including this one of Jetta launching herself with some focus and determination.

It is such a good photo we felt we had to share.

Chapel Farm sponsored handler Kathy Spacey had a great time at Blackpool Championship Show with her youngster “Peanut” who was awarded: Best Puppy, Best Junior and Reserve Best Dog in Breed! He was then in the final 6 in the puppy group (all best hound pups) then Junior group 4. Kathy was delighted with the results and rightly so, and also delighted with how well he behaved.

Well done Kathy and Peanut, many congratulations and Best Wishes for the next.

We are delighted to welcome Kirsten Rennie to the Chapel Farm Stockist Team and asked what prompted her to join the team.

“Auchentore Gundogs and The Working Puppy Company are based in beautiful Aberdeenshire not far from Inverurie. We currently have a team of 8 Labs and 2 Springers that are worked throughout the shooting season as well as competing with the labs in Field Trials and Working Tests. The Working Puppy Company was started in 2012 with the vision of providing balanced, modern gundog training methods to all abilities and breeds of dogs and their handlers. 

We have been delighted with the change to Chapel Farm dog food, there is something to suit everyone in the kennel from pups through to retirees. We look forward to recommending it to clients and beyond”.

“Just to let you know I have been selected in the Wales squad for the test season again this year. I am running at the skinners World Cup in May but unsure yet of which other ones I’ll be running in. Still waiting to hear. 

Thank you once again for your continued sponsorship with Chapel Farm by providing support for the best food I’ve fed to keep my dogs in the best of health to work throughout the year. Whether it’s trialling or the test season”.

Thanks for the update Mike and also for the photo with Buzz, best wishes for all competitions.
