Ryeland success at the 2013 Royal Welsh Show

Reserve Male Champion for Noble

Dolwen Noble

Steve has just returned from the Royal Welsh Show where we had great success under judge Brenda Wear.  Dolwen Noble was 2nd in the Senior ram class and then overall Reserve Male Champion.  Our girls also did well with the Senior ewe sired by Ruslin Kanto winning the breeding ewe class and our shearling ewe sired by Juggis Laser placed 5th in a very large class.

We have a number of ewe lambs for sale at Oakberrow sired by Noble and Kanto, do get in touch if  you wish to learn more.

Also we have days available in August for Sheep Husbandry courses as well as Show preparation.

Foster wins his second challenge certificate at Windsor

We had a great day at Windsor Championship Dog Show. 

Oakberrow Wotzinaname Sh.CM (Foster)

Foster - or his posh name Oakberrow Wotzinaname Sh.CM - won his second Challenge Certificate and also Best of Breed.  To top all of that he was also shortlisted in the Gundog Group by Carole Coode one of the leading gundog judges in the country.

Val Grant of Stairfoot GSPs was the breed judge and this was the first time that Foster had been shown under Val.  If my memory serves me correctly quite a few years ago Val awarded Guinness - Jennaline Seamour Butts at Oakberrow JW - a first in his class.

So roll on the rest of 2013 and see if Foster can win his all important third Challenge Certificate after which he will be a Show Champion!!!
