Then came the gundog group. The only group I am truly interested in. The best group in my mind and the least exagerated with most of the breeds being biddable, happy, fit for function and fit for work - as my Harvey is!
The winner of this group was an incredibly successful hungarian vizsla SH CH/AUST CH HUNGARGUNN BEAR IT'N MIND or Yogi to his friends. Spotted by Moray Armstrong when he was judging in New Zealand and brought over shortly afterwards on lease from his owner Mrs Cragg. He is top gundog 2009 and I think 2008 - a wonderful example of the breed.
Reserve was a british bred and owned weimeraner that I dont know a lot about but none the less from a very famous kennel. Didnt really do it for me but it's not a breed I'm that up on or interested in anyway.

best of breed for my breed was a bit of a surprise - Camlad Celtic Web owned in part by Sue Mitchell who handled her in the ring. My own personal view - not a Gordon for the big ring but a nice bitch none the less.
On a personal level, my beloved Bailey's son Pelle won the Reserve ticket and his granchildren Ebony and Barra won the best dog and bitch under three years old. I am very proud.
