All-Breed Health Clinic and Fundraiser
PSESSA is held an All-Breed Health Clinic and Fundraiser on May 23, 2021. Thank you to all the veterinarians who participated and to all the dog owners who attended. Stay tuned for a future CERF only clinic in planning stage.
All-Breed Obedience and Rally Fun Match
PSESSA held an All-Breed Obedience and Rally Fun Match as a "fun fundraiser" for our club on March 20, 2021. In addition to our Obedience and Rally runs, we offered a Spring themed photo booth for attendees to enjoy with their furry friends! Thank you to everyone who attended and volunteered for this event!

Conformation Events
After careful consideration and in response to COVID-19, the Puget Sound English Springer Spaniel Association (PSESSA) Board of Directors and our Specialty Show Chairperson made the difficult decision to cancel our specialty show that was to be held on Friday August 14, 2020 in Enumclaw, WA. This cancellation includes the two supported entries following our specialty at the all-breed shows (the sporting group club already cancelled the option to offer supported entries at their two group shows preceding our specialty).
We have notified our judges and they have all agreed to accept the same assignments for our specialty show on Friday August 20, 2021. As a FYI, here is the judging panel:
• Conformation: Carol Hathaway
• Sweepstakes: Laura Reeves (please note that we will come up with classes for puppies who were eligible for Sweepstakes in 2020 to be eligible for classes in 2021 - more details to come!)
• Junior Showmanship: Demery Paladichuk
• Obedience: Chris Cornell
• Rally: Pam Furness
We thank our club members, judges, exhibitors and supporters for their understanding during this unprecedented time we have all found ourselves in. We look forward to seeing everyone again in August 2021!
Field Events
The PSESSA annually participates in the four Labor Day hunt clusters, hosting a day of tests including Junior, Senior and Master Hunter levels.
