Deepfleet Kennels

Deepfleet Caesar and Deepfleet Druid born 25/5/22 sired by FTCH Dawsonlee Lightening of Follyview out of FTCH Shiveck Beretta of Deepfleet. I ran these two dogs earlier in the season in their first and only novice stake both were very green but did ok coming third and fourth. I have done a lot of work with them since and both are ready to win a trial. They are strong big dogs that hunt, mark, handle and cast well. Mouths are good and no noise both will make fine stud dogs with their quality trial breeding. Both have much trial potential. Reluctantly 🏠 PM only.

It is the responsibility of the officers and committees of all field trial clubs and societies to ensure the Code is strictly adhered to. This is essential for the future of our sport.

Code of Good Shooting Practice

Releasing pheasants and partridges

Under normal circumstances, all birds should be released before the start of the shooting season. Shooting must not commence until the birds are mature and fully adapted to the wild-a minimum of one month from release. Birds must never be released to replenish or replace any birds already released and shot in that season. Partridge release pens should be removed before shooting begins.

Meet Deepfleet Olav, 19 months, Springer dog, nicely bred out of field trial winning bitch, all grandparents field trial champions. He is at the stage of training where he is steady to ground game in pen, steady to feather,shot and flush. Keen retriever with good delivery, sound mouth, no noise, no faults. Starting to handle nicely and cast to blinds. Hunting needs to go up a few gears to make a trialling dog but would at the very least be an excellent junior member of a picking up team and his temperament is such that I’m sure with experience he would sit at peg. 🏠 pm

Just a heads up that I and five trialling friends attended a top class training day at a prestigious Norfolk estate with a great trialling history. Wild partridges and hares in well topped sugar beet, tested an excellent team of guns led by Henry Carr,another leading supporter of spaniel trialling on his own grounds. The day was arranged by Steve Newman through Jessie Musk who manages the ‘gundog’ days on the estate. Jessie also, with advice of the keeper, led the line enabling the handlers and spaniels, some ‘open’ experienced and others ‘first time out’ to get the most out of the day with contact flushes, marks and blind retrieves in testing scenting conditions. Thanks must also go to Angie Musk who not only provided refreshments but with her picking up team ‘eyewiped’ us on a number of occasions and Mitch who blanked in for us all day. Could not recommend the ground for trial or training days more. If interested make contact with Jessie Musk.

Another starting pistol bites the dust, they used to last forever now they just fall apart. Any recommendations for one that has a life or any good quality used ones available.

I have a friend looking for a quality bred Golden Retriever pup. He is experienced with goldie’s using them as his own peg dog and for picking up. First class family home with a knowledgeable handler. PM me with any ideas.

‘Time to cut back’ he said🙄well here we go again Deepfleet Sting and Deepfleet Donna……(FTCH Rytex Ringo x FTCH Shiveck Beretta of Deepfleet). The dam (Tess) has had two previous litters but only had two pups each time and although she is the hardest hunting springer in tough cover I have personally seen I wasn’t going to breed from her again. My thanks to Ian Openshaw of Rytex fame who firstly persuaded me to breed again and secondly arranged the progesterone testing that proved to be the answer. Tess had a litter of seven. I have kept two, one has gone to Juan M in Spain and the others hopefully to be seen on the trialling circuit in the future. 🤞🤞
