Not much point - no idea whether these have classes for us or not till you phone secretary and no-one would bother phoning all of these. Not even all teh Gundog Clubs schedule Brittanys - time they were all educated. I think word of mouth and local knowledge is working fine.
although fairly exhaustive list once you select those marked 'O' and then ignore specialist breed clubs and then dog training clubs the number is not that daunting.
Yes, but these are all general - I'm trying to create a breed specific list and to be honest we're getting a great response this way. Have a look at your lists if you have time and give me actual shows, dates, secretary details.
Another update - dates venues etc for top few still required. I had already trawled the shows site and got some there from websites but don't have time to email all secretaries
Hope you didn't phone her John. I did about an hour ago
Do we really not have a number for a Mrs K Gorman.
I've completed a few more details on the spreadsheet attached

I've just found a correct number for Mr Reynolds-Frost of Luton but can get no reply at present. Also, I have contact details for Vale of Glamorgan and will try it later.
That best of breeds website is a waste of time - half of the secretaries names on there are out of date and I found three clubs with two different secretaries. I had hoped to get email addresses from it but only got one after trawling through the whole thing this afternoon
However, with everyone on here sending me emails and messages on the forum I think we have enough to set the ball rolling. Donald has changed the website calendar and it is now much easier to use.
We now have 38 open shows across the country that schedule classes for Brittanys - I am sure there are loads more so keeping looking for me everyone.
The other thing we need to do is check the secretaries are current so can you all download the spreadsheet and highlight the ones you KNOW to be correct, or that you can give me a correst name and number for and pm me with your corrections. I was hoping to have an email list available as well but there are very few at the moment - I'll do some more trawling to try to come up with some more once I've taken these four brats out for their evening saunter.
Good work, chaps and chapesses!
Annie
I did warn you that the info might be unreliable . Having said that, the Birmingham gundog and terrier society secretary of six years ago did give me the name of the current secretary.
I've added a couple more bits of info for vale of Glamorgan and Dukeries
Anne, I've emailed you the list that we used for sending out the BCGB judging list last year. Not sure how up to date the info is - it's forever changing.
