Mrs Elaine Dolamore (Crystaldean)
It is with great sadness that we learn that Elaine Dolamore has lost her battle and died peacefully in the Rowans Hospice on 13th January. Elaine had the deepest respect from all that knew her and those of us who had the pleasure of working with her on the Committee. She was never outspoken and kept her views to herself; what she brought to the table was a huge talent – her arts and crafts provided many fund-raisers especially her beautiful patchwork quilts. I recall one such quilt raising a considerable sum at our Blenheim spectacular! Elaine was an early pioneer of scouring ebay and the internet for "qanything Cavalier" from fabric to ornaments and anything with a twinkly sparkle in between. These pieces were often unseen anywhere else and purchased around the world. She would take a stall at our Club Show (amongst other Clubs) to sell these items and generously donating a percentage to the Clubs. She held the "behind the scenes role" of Membership Secretary for numerous years so even when not going attending events was still known to many, if only in name! Personally I thoroughly enjoyed Elaine’s company, a great guest to have to dinner, warm, genuine and always with a ready smile! Our thoughts are with husband, Peter and daughter, Nichola.

THE BENEVOLENT FUND
From time to time events overtake us and we find ourselves searching for a way to help us out of a situation. The Benevolent Fund is there to help any Member to cope during a time of difficulty. You may need to kennel your dog if you have to go into hospital … or during a time when you feel you are being pulled in every direction due to family troubles.
Any one of the three Trustees will be pleased to discuss your situation and it may well be that we can help towards the problem financially by ensuring your dogs are properly cared for during that time. The Benevolent Fund does not pay veterinary fees, but may be able to help in other respects.
Please don’t hesitate to ask … all calls to us are totally confidential and no details are ever passed on.

Looking For a Puppy? - CKCS Puppy Register The Cavalier Club runs a register of puppies available from Club Members who can put details of puppies and older dogs they have for sale on the Cavalier Club Puppy Register.
The Club has recently introduced a slightly more formal system for placing a dog on its Register. A form now needs to be completed which can be downloaded from the Puppy Register Pages. The form includes details of any health certificates obtained for the parents, so that prospective puppy buyers can have more information before visiting a possible puppy.
If you wish to add your dogs to the Club’s Register, download the Puppy Register Form and send to The Co-ordinator.
Anyone looking to purchase a puppy is recommended to contact one of the Club Puppy Register Co-ordinators, Veronnica Hull, telephone 01268 727248 and Sylvia Lymer, telephone 01530 831929, for details of puppies available.
- Puppy Register
When your puppies have been sold would you please advise the Puppy Register Co-Ordinator so that they may be removed from the lists. |

However if you are judging at a Cavalier Breed Club Limited or Open Show, we would love to have the results and your critique to publish for all to read. If you would like us to publish it just send it attached to an email to the Webmaster or by snail mail to Dave Norris.
Unlike some of the Dog Press, we do not edit any critique, what the Judge sends us is what appears.
