Just heard from Carol about the blood draw at the Cocker Club Champ Show. She said she isn't sure if there will be one yet as it depends on how much interest there is nearer the time and she has yet to seek permission from the breed club.

I am posting down bloods to Carol to participate this weekend just in case there isn't another opportunity.
