Billy is voted the Gundog Trainer of the Year 2009

BILLY Steel Junior, of Broadlaw Gundogs, Lowther Hills, South Lanarkshire, received this year’s Keith Erlandson Memorial Trophy for Gundog Trainer of the Year from the D uke of Rutland at this year’s CLA Game with Tracey Allen, the general manager of The Countryman’s Weekly, who sponsored this prestigious award.  It was a real fitting occasion for Billy to receive this award, as he was the Captain of the Scotland Gundog Team - sponsored by CSJ.  

 

I am sure noone really needs reminding of Billy's impressive cv (!)  but he is a professional gundog trainer who is an 'A' Panel Retriever Judge and who judged the IGL Retriever Championships in 2002.  He has made up seven Field Trial Champions – ‘FTCH Linksview Jet;’ ‘FTCH Kenue Cedar;’ ‘FTCH Bracken of Berrybrae;’ ‘FTCH Broadlaw Eva;’ ‘FTCH Broadlaw Damsen;’ ‘FTCH Broadlaw Jake’ and ‘FTCH Hillus Clyde.’ He bred four Field Trial Champions and won the IGL Retriever Championship in 1996 with ‘FTCH Linksview Jet’ and again in 2000 with ‘FTCH Bracken of Berrybrae.’

Our many congratulations go out to him.

Heal works! Great value too!

I just wanted to write to say how impressed and pleased I am with "Heal".  My Boxer, Amber has always had a delicate stomach and would often be off her food 2-3 times a week, waking me up in the night to go outside with a gurgling tummy, eating grass and looking thoroughly fed up until late afternoon when she would recover and start eating.

Since starting her on "Heal" she no longer disturbs us at night to go outside and only has a sore tummy very occasionally...maybe once or twice a month at the most, which is a vast improvement!! and means that I get my sleep!!

When I finished the first tub of "Heal" it took me about a month to get round to re-ordering, and during that time she went back to having a sore stomach a few times a week, which just confirmed to me that the herbs really do soothe and calm her digestive system and since starting them again she has been fine.

I am also impressed with the value for money compared to other herbal products. The tubs are massive and last for ages, and smell really nice too.

Many thanks

Susan
