Anne Eckersley
Like many exhibitors, I did not grow up showing dogs so it was not until I was an adult that I purchased my first Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and embarked upon learning how to show a dog as well as breeding Cavaliers. My first foray into dog shows was in obedience. I also breed Tibetan Spaniels.
