2017 Kooikerhondje Annual Open Breed Show and Fun Day

With summer just around the corner it is time to tell you all about our annual Breed Open Show and Fun Day which shall be held on Sunday 25th June 2017 at Steventon Village Hall, Steventon, Oxon, OX13 6RR. Our open show is designed to be fun and welcoming, we have mountains of prizes on offer for all places in each class, and absolutely encourage owners who have never shown before to have a go. We even have a ringcraft class held before the show where we teach you what it is you need to do. If you do wish to enter this part of the day entries must be received by the 29th May 2017. The schedule (including entry form) can be found on the download page of this website.

The show will be followed by an introduction to Rally-O, which is a fun and less formal type of obedience competition compared to the traditional obedience work.

The Rally-O will be followed by our fun day. Do you own the prettiest bitch, most handsome dog or how about the champion sausage catcher? We will have an afternoon of fun games to compete with your dogs of any breed in, we hope to see you all there!

AGM

Don’t forget that our AGM shall be held on Sunday 19 February 2017 at the Boarstall Duck Decoy in Oxfordshire. This is meeting for club members, however you are welcome to become a member in advance or on the day if you wish.  The membership application form can be found on the links and download page of this site.

Health Register Update

To all Kooiker owners – I am compiling the next update to the UK entry of the Kooikerhondje Health Register.  I would gratefully appreciate that any results of health tests or details of any births are forwarded to me by the 26th August.  Equally important is to know of any deaths or life changing medical conditions.  This register goes such a long way to keeping this breed healthy for generations to come, but only works if we have the complete picture. Your time to help us keep this document fully up to date is gratefully received!

Please send all information to c-l-johnson@hotmail.co.uk
