JUDGES Oliver Ryan-Purcell MFH (Ormond) and Hughie Ryan (Scarteen) were tested by the outstanding display of young entry at the Tipperary Foxhounds puppy show. This was recently held at their kennels at Tullamaine just off the Fethard-Rosegreen road in the heart of bloodstock, racing and hunting country.

Huntsman Gavin Shorten with whipper-in James O’Donnell, assisted by Michael O’Keeffe, had hounds in tip-top condition.
