Jim and Kate Crosbie
We are both deeply involved in the breed as breeders, exhibitors and judges. Kate's affix was Lislone and Jim's was Garbank and in 1994 we became partners in both affixes. See the history pages about the affixes and other pages about our breeding and achievements in the show ring. As regards judging we both judge the breed at Championship Show level in Ireland and U.K. and have judged extensively abroad. We have judged in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Belgium, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Germany, The Netherlands, Denmark, Czech Rep.,Ukraine,Estonia,France,Slovakia,Slovenia,Poland,Russia,Luxemburg,Austria and New Zealand. We are also both approved by The Irish Kennel Club to award CAC/CACIB in Gundog Groups 7 and 8. We have judged them in Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Europe, Ukraine, Australia and New Zealand.
