Gooseberry is located on John's Island in South Carolina. My love affair with dogs began at an early age, showing Pugs as a Junior. I begain showing and breeding Gordon Setters in the 1970's and had my long-time wish fulfilled, of finding a Field Spaniel, in 1993. Jackee', who will always have a piece of my heart, was my first Field Spaniel and the Foundation of Gooseberry Field Spaniels.
Jackee's son, Brook, who is 10 1/2 ~ along with Jackee's daughter, 9 1/2 year old Lena, 6 year old Jeri, a Lena daughter, and Nick, Jeri's son, all live here at Gooseberry. Midas, Winterbourne's Midas Touch, bred by Maria Kohlstrom is our boy from Sweden.
My name is Suzanne Fernau and I am an Antiques Dealer and also manage a large Antique Auction House here in Charleston. My partner, Joe Fleming knows everything there is about Heavy Equipment, so if you need repair on a bulldozer, he is the man to call.
I am an active member of The Field Spaniel Society of America, having served as Secretary and also as President. I also belong to The Fox River Field Spaniel Club, The Field Spaniel Society in the United Kingdom and The Swedish Kennel Club.
