RECENT & MEMORABLE WINS

Jim has won over 2000 field trial placements. He has finished over 70 Field Champions and has well over 100 Championship, Classic and hour wins. He has placed dogs 7 times in the National Brittany All Age Championship. He won it twice, in 1997 (DC/AFC Tequila's Joker) and in 2001 (FC/AFC Shambo's Dark Shadow). Three of the dogs he trained won the National Amateur Brittany All Age Championship when run by their owners.

The U.S. Open is the oldest American Field Championship for Brittanys. It is one of the few trials that has an hour qualifying and an hour final. You must run two good hours in a row to win, making it the toughest test Brittanys have. Read here the U.S. Open Brittany Championship article written by David A. Fletcher.
