Pictured above are the 4 puppies bred by Mrs Elizabeth MacLean ex Sh Ch Sarah Pocket of Crookrise who were conceived by AI using imported semen from USA Ch Bookstor Robert Frost JH.  This was an historic breeding as it was the first time the Kennel Club permitted the use of imported semen for a litter of Pointers.  The litter has resulted in 2 CC winners, Lynwater Frosty Welcome of Crookrise and Lynwater Atlantic Crossing of Crookrise.
