Welcome New Client Yvonne Flavell & ESS Teasel

Yvonne and Teasel recently started private 1:1 sessions covering Grade 1, 2 & 3 foundation work, this little spaniel at 7 months completed G1 & G2 in 3 weeks and started developing a hunting pattern in our pens at a very early age. Training was interupted as Teasel came into season last week. This is definately one dog to watch during the shooting season.
