Fighting to put heeler breed the map


OFFICIAL recognition of the heeler breed of dog by the National Kennel Club is the ultimate aim of Clitheroe woman Mrs Patricia Taylor.


Herself the owner of a


three-year-old heeler, Laddie, Mrs Taylor, of Mytton View, is worried about the decline of one of the oldest breeds of dog has set about contacting other owners with a view to improving the situation. Mrs Taylor tried to


breed from a bitch she owned, but it turned out to


round & about


be a non-nursing mother and the litter died.' . Difficult births are, she says, the chief reason for , the decline of the breed, with pups often dying at birth or even being delib- ■

erately mother.


killed by ■ the However, Mrs Taylor is


confident that Laddie will prove to be a champion father, enabling her to carry on breeding from some of -his offspring. If :


. not, Mrs Taylor has a 12- week-old bitch, Lady. She is prepared to swap it for an older bitch or to wait until it is old enough to' have pups. ,. ■


Recently, Lady Mackin­


tosh, of the sweet man­ ufacturing family, called a meeting of heeler owners. T h e y d e c id e d t h a t ’ although there are several different strains of the breed — such a s ’ the Ormskirk, 1 the Lancashire and the Welsh heeler — the animal should, fo r show purposes, measure about 14 inches from the withers to the tip of the tail.


• There was, however, ■


some dispute as to whether the f e e t : should turn inwards or outwards and what should be the correct


length of leg. Heelers apparently vary .


so much because they originated from black and


■ tans, corgis and Manches­ ter and Norwich terriers,. with a sp r in k l in g o f dachshund. /. Apart from being attrac­


tive pets, heelers are admirable cow'd og s — hence the name — and also good ratters. : Like Mrs Taylor, other


heeler owners are keen to produce more litters and aim to have official recog­ nition which would allow.: the animals 'to compete at dog shows in their own


right. In her quest to gain


more: information, Mrs Taylor has telephoned dog breeders all over the coun-


MRS TAYLOR with the heelers


try. Although the Kennel' Club ■ has offered her no encouragement, she has had advice and support from the National Rare Breed Survival Trust; in Devon. After an appeal on local


radio, Mrs Taylor was- inundated with callers, many offering their heeler bitches to be mated , with Laddie. Now Mrs Taylor is hope­


ful there could soon be the patter of tiny paws to help the cause along.


Aims to be interpreter


A FORMER pupil o f Clitheroe Girls’ Grammar School, Miss Sara Panter, is set to begin a course in conference interpretation after gaining a BA honours degree in modern lan­ guages at St Hugh’s Col­ lege, Oxford. Miss: Panter, (22), is to


start the ons-year course at Bath University in October. She is the eldest daugh­


ter. of Mr and, Mrs Keith Panter, .of Brungerley Avenue, Clitheroe.


Feast


in store A . WEEK’S feast of fun and games is in store for Clitheroe youngsters wait­ ing to go back to school. For Capt. Clifford Mof-


fatt, of the Church Army, will be in town for a week from Monday, August 21st, to take charge of a holiday club in the Parish Church lower hall. Among the activities


planned for the five days are games, singing and frieze painting, centred’on Biblical themes.


.. More than 50 children


have enrolled for the club, which is .open to all denominations. They must enrol in advance and the Parish Office is open every


. weekday morning fo r bookings. The fee is lOp..


• Members of the church1 will be helping Capt. Mof- fatt to run the club. But bookings are limited to the first 100 children, so hurry :


along and book a place.’
