As part of our developing corporate image, by kind permission of Pat Peters (Kilfel) (USA) we have adapted a drawing of hers to form the club logo. Ms Peters writes: "You might be interested to know that the original model was an English bitch, Ch. Pitglen Party Piece, who was imported for Pool Forge Kennels by Peter Green as one of the conditions of his emigration to the U.S. She is behind some of my foundation stock and I agree that her head and expression are lovely.
Pat Peters"
UK and USA Champion P Party Piece, born 21 May 1960, was actually bred in Fife Scotland by J. H. Paterson though out of James Cooper's (Greeba) Cumbrian stock - G Ranthorn Barrister X Ch G Rendale Rare Jen.
Crufts Stand March 9 2008
Club Representatives spent an enjoyable day fielding questions from the public and meeting friends old and new. The club extends a warm welcome to the seven new people who signed up to membership.
We were kept very busy catching up with subscriptions and advertising fees, distributing year books and selling our small range of merchandise and publications. The 2009 calendar proved very popular and is still available by post, see merchandise page for details. We look forward to doing it all again next year.
The day following Crufts produced far and away the largest number of page loads in a day for this site since its inception -554.
Pictured on the stand are Gazette and Calendar editor Roz Smith and Year Book editor John Maloney .
