John Walgate of Alpha Feeds said: “We are delighted to extend our support of the Flatcoated Retriever Society and the events that they run.

“Our aim is to feed all working, sporting and racing breeds and sponsoring the society is just one way in which we can put something back into the sport.”

Prize winners at the Flatcoated Retriever Society events will receive food from the Alpha Feeds range which continues to prove hugely popular with performance dog owners.
