Maureen and Tony Taylor bid you a warm welcome to the
our site, the home of what we affectionately call
the "Maursett Mob" which has, over the years, included
Clumber Spaniels, German Wirehaired Pointers, Bracco Italiano and Basset Hounds.
Those
of you who know us for reasons other than dog showing often ask
why we use the name "Maursett" - the reason, simply,
is that it is the Kennel Club Affix.
We
first applied to the Kennel Club for our own affix many years
ago (yes, that really is the two of us in the photograph
with Claude and Sheena) at a time when we were
showing both English Setters and Clumber Spaniels.
We tried to get
all sorts of names that would be appropriate, all of which were
rejected - apart from 'Maursett' - derived from Maureen and
Setters much to Tony's great distress!

 We
hope that you enjoy your visit to our site and learning about
our hobby. Please feel free to
contact
us about our fields of interest,
particularly Clumber Spaniels, but also German Wirehaired Pointers and the Bracco Italiano.
Our
dogs have performed well in both the show ring and working
environments and have been bred for type, health and, above all else,
temperament. All of our Clumber Spaniel breeding stock
have been tested for PDP1 and are certified clear.
Dogs
with the Maursett prefix have gained Champion status at home, as
well as internationally in the United States of America and in
the Republic of Ireland. Maureen and Tony both award
Challenge Certificates in Clumber Spaniels and Maureen also
awards CCs in German Wirehaired Pointers. Maureen and Tony
have both judged Clumber Spaniels at Championship Shows in
the UK and Australia. Maureen is currently the Clumber Spaniels
Breed Notes correspondent for Dog World in the UK - anyone with
any news or information for Maureen's notes should
email her.
