Gilbertson & Page Support Mid-Ulster Gundog Association Tests

15/10/2013

Mid-Ulster Gundog AssociationGilbertson & Page has a well-established relationship with the Mid-Ulster Gundog Association and its Honorary Secretary, Robert McGregor, through Strangford Agencies of Newtownards.

The Association was founded in 1994 and is supported by Lord Dunluce as President and Lady Moyola as its Patron.

The Association held its well-supported Summer Tests for 2013 over three events at Drumcairne Forest Park. In all, 47 dogs competed for an number of trophies. Not too surprisingly, most of the entrants were Labrador Retrievers.

Gilbertson & Page are very proud sponsors of the class prizes and this year’s winners were more than happy to receive generous quantities of the new Heritage dog feeds, see the photos below.

As these events require Kennel Club licencing, Robert was very pleased to confirm after the Tests that further permission had been obtained to stage three Field Trials over the the coming winter months.
