Mac’s critique from Blackpool

Judge Frank Kane Open dog 2 Wallington Sophtspot in The Zone 10-year-old black spotted who appealed for his shape and balance and movement. Hard to believe his is 10-year-old and not titled. Full of type and ultra sound. Worthy winner of RDCC

Photo shoots and show photos

We have a couple of mini photo shoots with Tali, Lottie and Eira, as well as some photos taken at shows sent through to us, so I thought I’d share them. Lavender field shoot with Tali and Lottie, photos taken by Hounds and Hooves Photography. Hounds and Hooves photography also took some photos of EiraContinue reading “Photo shoots and show photos”

A couple of open shows …

Lancaster and District Canine Society and Morecombe and Heysham Canine Association hold their open shows on the same date and at the same venue. We took Mac and Eira. The breed judge for Lancaster was Megan Anderson, and both Mac and Eira won their classes, putting them in the challenge together. The AV Utility VeteranContinue reading “A couple of open shows …”

Introducing Tali

We might just be mad … we have added a Mac daughter to our family of Spots, making 5 Dalmatians in the house! Tali is a Mac/Barbie daughter, so she’s Seren’s half sister and Eira’s Auntie!

We’re not just show dogs!

First and foremost out Spots are family pets, their ability to show and success in the show ring is very much a secondary thing for us. So I thought I’d share some of our non show time –

Northwich and District Open Show

We had a lovely, rather warm day out at a local show. It was nice to spend some time relaxing with friends. Eira was 2nd in her Junior class. Mac was also 2nd in his Open class, but then gained a very respectable AV Utility Veteran group 4!! He was the oldest veteran there!
