Hi the show a Easton sports academy from 9.30,gun dogs ring 2 , ran by Cleveland dog society, and sunday, Houghton sports centre, gun dogs judged outside, opens 9.00, ring 7 from 9.30, with Sunderland &district canine society. Usually cant take dogs under 6 mths, unsure about over 6 mths and not showing as not get there also I don't know who anyone would know if the dog was entered into which class, both shows have a couple of different classes for covers, junior graduate and post grad and open.
