Welcome Message
The 19th National Cocker Spaniel Championship Show will be hosted by the Cocker Spaniel Club
of The ACT Inc. on the 1st and 2nd July 2020. The venue for the show is the Conference Centre,
EPIC Grounds, Federal Highway, Canberra. Our Club sincerely hopes that you will attend and
enjoy this event.

Our aim is to provide not only a great show but a social event for Cocker Spaniel owners, breeders
and enthusiasts to get together, enjoy each other’s company, showcase our dogs and share
information.

The National has been organized to coincide with the EPIC International Weekend, so as to give
those travelling a chance of not only exhibiting under a Breed Specialist but also an International
panel of Judges over the five days of competition.

We hope that you will find this information booklet of assistance to you. Should you have any
concerns or questions, please feel free to contact any of our Organizing Committee listed under
Contacts.

This information booklet is a ‘living’ document and will be updated as more information
comes to hand. Please check regularly. Amendments will be listed on the amendment page in
the front. Updated versions of this information booklet will be posted on the Cub’s Facebook
page as additional information becomes available. Alternatively, for those who don’t use
Facebook send an email to Amanda Bray (braycharm@hotmail.com) to request to be added

Judges Resume

The judge for the National is Mr David Todd “Chataway”.

David Todd – Chataway Kennels UK

My name is David C. Todd of the Chataway Affix. I live near
Edinburgh in Scotland at the top of the United Kingdom,
famous for Whiskey, Haggis, Nessie and Kilts!!!

My Journey in dogs started in 1975 when we purchased a
family pet Cocker spaniel. She was Blue roan and became
my constant companion around the Border Village of West
Linton.

The Village lay host to Margaret Struthers of Daydawn
Cockers and we became friends and I ended up helping in
the Kennels during my Holidays and at weekends. From
this Kennel a Golden boy Daydawn Drambuie became my
first Co-owned Show dog and we had some modest but
delightful wins. He was used by a few breeders and I
bought in a Golden daughter of his as a foundation bitch...she produced my first Sh Ch C. The
News Editor. During this time I found a two week stint at the Lynwater Kennel becoming a
ten year working relationship and then friendship to this day. For the Lynwater Kennel I
made up champions in Blue roan, Golden (including BIS at The Cocker Spaniel Club), Orange
and white (wins included BOB and Group1 at Crufts) and Liver Roan. For myself I have had
Show Champions in Black, Blue Roan and Golden. I Breed both Solids and Partis. I also,
being a dog lover, have owned and bred other breeds making up Ch and Sh Ch in Parson
Russel Terriers, Kerry Blue Terriers, Beagles, Hungarian Vizslas, Curly Coated Retrievers
and Labradors and handled 2 Pointers to their titles.

I have awarded CC's on Numerous occasions including The Cocker Spaniel Club - in Cockers
and also award CC's in Vizsla. B listed for Labs, Pointers, Parsons and Kerry Blues. I have
included a photo of my 2 latest Sh Champions Lynwater Classic Design and Glentree Tradition.
I like to breed but when I see a super pup in the nest its hard not to be tempted......................
These two boys are at home with me and 2 Curly Sh Ch and some promising daughters from
both boys......... Thank you for your consideration

David

Our Assembly Steward

                                                 Jackie Knowles

I bought my first cocker in 1993, we had just returned to the UK after living in India,
and I just wanted a pet! We then moved to Ireland in 1996, where we decided to let
her have a litter of babies, I was very fortunate when I contacted the then Secretary of
Dublin Cocker, as she had a light blue Courtmaster dog that she allowed me to use.
We had a beautiful litter of 8, from which we kept 2, and so it started!! We were
privileged to have had dealing with many of the Top kennels in the UK Wiljana,
Bitcon, Courtmaster, Terriles!

I was also honoured to be Secretary for Dublin cocker for 12years which I loved.
Over the years with our 3 daughters we have shown various breeds, English
Springers, pointers, Vizlas, Norfolk Terrier, but today you will find me at the Hound
Ring with our PBGV'S!

We along with 7 of our dogs emigrated here in 2010, in 2015 we became Australian
Citizen's enabling us to call Australia our home!

I would like to wish you all an enjoyable and successful day and thank you for
allowing me to be involved in this wonderful event.

ACCOMMODATION

The information is supplied by our local dog clubs which on their recommendation may change
occasionally.

Many past opportunities for accommodation were lost when privileges provided by hotels, motels
and private accommodation were abused and tenants’ responsibilities were ignored or blatantly
disrespected. We as exhibitors, show & event management, dog owners and fanciers need to respect
the existence of these facilities and ensure that they are available beyond us and for the next people
who need to use them.

Camping

There are powered sites within Exhibition Park (EPIC) a short distance from Dogs ACT Canine
Complex. The sites are maintained by the showground authority and thankfully they allow a
discounted rate for dog show exhibitors on those specific weekends. From 1 January 2017 the fee is
$30.00 per night.

Bookings are through Dogs ACT on behalf of clubs & the showground authority. Please phone (02)
6241 4404 to book
  Dogs ACT hours are 9.30am to 2.30pm Tuesday to Thursday.

    Please phone 02 – 62414404 or email admin@dogsact.org.au

    All camping must be pre-booked and preferably pre-paid. Rates are $30.00 per night.

    You must contact Dogs ACT to book powered and water sites also, please talk to office
     about your requirements at time of booking.

IMPORTANT – If there are no campers pre-booked before the show/event weekend, then power

Electrical Information

Exercising Dogs / Off Leash Area

There is plenty of grass areas throughout the venue, however, we ask all exhibitors to ensure they
clean up after their dogs. Failure to do so will jeopardize us and other clubs using the venue in the
future.

Exhibitor Bags

Your exhibitor bag/welcome pack will be available on Wednesday 1st July and will include your
catalogue.

Exhibitor Set Up Areas

Details to be advised

Grooming

There will be a designated Grooming Area with plenty of Power Points with mats to protect the
floor. Please make use of this area.

If you have a dog which requires grooming, stripping or trimming and you wish to groom outside of
the area, you MUST bring a mat or tarpaulin to place only under the dogs grooming area. These
MUST be emptied of all grooming products OUTSIDE the respective pavilion.

We have been advised that the upkeep of the carpet is difficult & the past years has seen DOGS
ACT receive a large cleaning bill to remove the hair & trimmings. We would like to continue to
provide you with the benefit of the carpet tiles but YOU must also play your part. Higher cleaning
costs would result in higher entry fees & DOGS ACT would like to keep them down

For those people wishing to have Salon Grooming Facilities we have the use of a fully equipped
grooming salon between 4 p.m. & 7 pm Tuesday 31st June & 4 p.m. - 7 pm Wednesday 1st July.
The owner will very kindly allow people to make use of her salon, which has two baths, several
dryers & tables etc. You will need to use your own products.
The cost will be very reasonable but, will depend on the number of people making use of the salon
& the time it is in use. Please ring Wendy Drekovic to indicate your interest & to book a spot –
 0428414099 - bookings are essential.
