"James"
(Ch. Telltale Davey Jones X A/C Ch. Rendition Autumfire Poppy)
James won the Triple Crown of Dogs in one year - Eukanuba/AKC Championship, ESSFTA National Specialty and culminating with Best in Show at the prestigious Westminster Kennel Club Show. James has earned his place beside past springer greats Ch. Wakefield's Black Knight, Ch. Chinoe's Adamant James, Ch. Salilyn's Condor and Ch. Salilyn 'N Erin's Shameless as one of only 5 springers to have won Best in Show at Westminster.
'James' is a beautifully balanced liver and white dog with a soft spaniel expression and effortless gait. James was born on June 8, 2000. He is OFA Hip Good, Patella and Heart Normal and CERF- Clear. Felicity is very proud of James and his team, who lovingly condition, care for, groom and handle James to all of these wins. Thank you Kellie, Chris and Evan.

"But their final cheers went to James, with his
floppy ears, and his warm, intense eyes, which locked onto
Fitzgerald when he looked backward at her as they trotted around
the ring for Indeglia’s edification." (television commentator)
“He’s a fabulous dog,” said Indeglia, who had judged him at
other shows. “He conforms to his breed standard closer than any
dog I’ve ever seen. Go to the standard, look at him, and everything
is on the button. He’s a great dog.” He added, “I had a lot of great dogs to choose from. But this
one stood out. He had that look in his eye that said ‘It’s my
night’. He had great temperament. It was an honor to judge him.”
(Dr. Robert A. Indeglia, Best in Show judge)
... Thank you, James, for continuing to demonstrate such unqualified love, faith and hope ...
Our heartfelt appreciation to Kellie for believing in James; Chris Berg and Evan Threlfall for their tireless efforts on James' behalf; our friends who have stood by us and to all of our new friends for sharing our joy.

James has much yet to do. His work with Alzheimer's patients will continue, as will completing titles in obedience and rally. He beautifully represents the versatility of our breed and has positively touched the lives of everyone he has met. With his conformation career drawn to an end, our pride in him continues...
