 Small G2  -  Nicola Hadaway & Trio Lad  

Jasper is now 4 and was rehomed to us when he was 6 months old, when his current owners were desperately trying to rehome him due to him being bullied by a bigger dog, we know nothing of his parents etc. Jasper is a tri coloured cavalier who is very loyal, he is a very accurate dog and can be quite fast.  Jasper always tries to please and i am very lucky to own him.  We are pleased with how far Jasper has come over the last 2 years.  All our dogs are loving, loyal family pets and as an added bonus seem to enjoy agility
