Not many people have the thrill

Jeff Horswell has been involved in the world of show dogs from the age of 12, his first Champion came early on, in his beloved Yogie Bear.

Not many people have the thrill of making up a British Champion. Quite rightly Britain is the hardest country in the world to gain a Champion title for a dog.

Over many years Jeff has handled, Basenjis, Dachshunds, Irish Wolfhounds, Great Danes, Greyhounds, Soft Coated Wheatens, and latterly Field Spaniels. Always to great success. His sympathetic handling techniques always seem to get the very best out of his charges.
