                                                                    Kerstin, Pebbles, Bea Gunn & Daisy

                       

                        First of all - my visit by the Breed Championship Show of the SESSS would be never such
                        a most enjoyable event for me without meeting the very nice breeders of Mika`s wonderful
                        daddy, FIN Ch. Strathnaver Hells Angel "Magnus", Bea & Diane Gunn from the famous
                        Kennel Strathnaver again,  like especially to see Mika`s most beautiful "granny" Daisy and
                        "aunty" Pebbles for the first time in reality too. Both are really very excellent ESS, which
                        have enchanted me so much with their most delightful temper and I adore them very much..
              We are very happy and proud, to have such famous real english bloodlines in our Mika`s
              pedigree too.
 
                        Mika got also extremely very nice presents from his really dear friends Diane & Bea Gunn -
                        see more here
                       
                        I also took this wonderful agate from Mika`s new cup for the Spaniel of the Year title with me
                        to this show and may I express my biggest thanks to Diane Gunn, that she has make it possible,
                        even she was very busy by judging so much ESS, that we could take nice photos with her together
                        and this agate, as the breeder of the famous ESS "Strathnaver  Barley Wine", who is pictured on
                        this really "Crown" of this cup ! 

                                       Diane & Kerstin

              This was already my second visit in GB after the Cruft`s Dog Show in 1998 and I do think, it`s
              just like a "Must" to visit shows in the homecountry from this wonderful breed ESS as an great
              admirer of ESS like me. No matter - just this kind of Championship Show with about 189 entries
                        was really like "ESS-Wonderland" for me and I have enjoyed my stay there full of enthusiasm
                        very much. What for an most exciting day for me including so many great impressions and extemely
              happy  moments, where I have really enjoyed every second so much. It was also a big pleasure for
              me to learned to know some very nice people there too like dear Kay Woodward from Kennel Wadeson
                       and of course Wendy Walker from Kennel Dexbenella, who has edit once again such a great yearbook
                        from  the SESSS, where I`m a member too.
 
                        Unfortunatelly I have must leave the show before the big final, for reason of my departure time, but I`m
                        already sure about, that I will take more time, when I will visit once again such big show-event again in this
                        wonderful country Great Britain.
 
                        We are very happy to live already together with our most lovable English Springer Spaniel "Mika" and
                        our dear old Cockerspaniel "Tino" -  both are the most important part of our family, where we do living for !
 
                        I do hope, that you will enjoy  the following photos, which I want to share with many other admirers of this
              most wonderful breed "English Springer Spaniel" too.
