    I have only ever seen one of these for sale on DoneDeal. I like the build of them, seem to be a bit slower than the springer/cocker.

    There very low in numbers there is a litter for sale on sg magazine ,,,,they are supposed to be a lot slower but no less effective, just dont look flashy in this day and age I suppose think I read that they are stubborn aswell

    Didn't a lad from Cavan win Cruffs with one a few years back??

    I couldn't tell you. I just like their build and markings. I'm quite fascinated with older working breeds.
