An audience with Pat Craige Trotter

Pat Craige Trotter is the consummate breeder, owner, handler and judge. Her world famous Vin-Melca Norwegian Elkhounds helped make her one of the most recognisable names in the world of dogs.

Pat was in England recently to judge the Norwegian Elkhound club's championship show and DOG WORLD used the opportunity of one of her rare visits to the UK to record this in-depth interview with Andrew Brace, recorded in front of a live audience.

You will hear how Pat started out in dogs; how, as a child, she made money grooming and looking after other people's dogs. You'll hear how she maintained a career as a teacher alongside her career as a successful handler. And Pat tells Andrew her recipe for successful breeding, successful showing and successful judging before answering questions from the audience.

If you have an interest in the world of pedigree dogs this film is quite simply an unmissable piece of TV and if after watching it you're left wanting more then copies of Pat Craige Trotter's acclaimed book, Born To Win, Breed To Succeed are on sale via the DOG WORLD shop for £25.
