Best of Breed from Veteran Class at the National Specialty Show
Celie Florence and Delores Streng offer the Telltale Veteran Challenge Trophy, a pewter coffee service on a twelve inch gallery tray. This trophy is to be awarded to the English Springer Spaniel chosen Best of Breed from the Veteran Class at the ESSFTA National Bench Specialty. For permanent possession, the trophy must be won five times by the same owner, not necessarily with the same dog. The trophy will remain in the Association’s permanent possession until retired. A six inch pewter plate will be offered as a remembrance of the award.
