Whether you're a seasoned breeder or a new owner, the club is dedicated to sharing knowledge and ensuring the health and wellbeing of these remarkable dogs. Join us in celebrating the rich heritage of the French Spaniel here in the UK and connecting with others who share your love for this incredible breed.
Celebrating the Game Fair
The Game Fair is an annual event we support in the Sporting Dog Tent and on the Daily Parade of Gundogs. This year, at Ragley Hall, over 30 owners and more than 20 dogs came together to 25-27 July 25 to support the event and catch up! We're thrilled to announce that the Game Fair will return to Ragley Hall next year, happening on July 24-26. Make sure to mark your calendars and look out for the calling notice and information on this site and from Libby on Friends of French Spaniels around May to be involved in this fantastic event!

New Event News
The Stalking Show 11-12 April 2026
We are excited to share that we will be presenting our breed in the Hall of Hounds at The Stalking Show being held at Staffordshire Country Showground in April 2025. Those showcasing the breed will be those who either work their dogs or have experience in showing but we would be delighted for support from wider club members to visit the show. Keep an eye out for more details.
We would like to invite anyone interested to organise an event, set up a training session, visit a show as a group or host a meetup - whether it's in the comfort of your home or at a nearby venue! Your ideas are what make our community grow, so please don't hesitate to reach out to Libby with your suggestions if you need help or advertising. Let's bring our ideas to life and create some unforgettable moments together!
