10d Barker on a pogo stick? (8)
I think that it is Springer but cannot see where Barker comes in Any explanation gratefully received

[Prizewinners]

Hi - the springer is a spaniel - so the barker (dog) connection.

[JMR27]

both barker and springer are terms for dogs

[netkey]

springer = dog = barker

Thank you Prizewinners, JMR27 & netkey - when you see it it is so obvious - I couldn't get fairground barker out of my head
