Judy Wins Spaniel Class At Linn County Trials
The Belle Plaine owner Wilford Drakos saw Judy a springer spaniel take first in the spaniel class at the retriever trials staged by the Retriever club of the Linn county chapter of the Izaak Walton League last Sunday near Cedar Rapids. Hundreds watched as dogs from Labradors to Chesapeakes displayed retrieves on land and water, many trained by their owners. The column notes broad interest and predicts the trials could become a major eastern Iowa sport next year. It also covers gun care tips, Connecticut’s veteran program on a trout stream, Clayton county rains, and trivia on birds and bees.
