An early start for us this morning, off to the beach before everyone else gets there. It’s been a beautiful day, but very cold and a bit windy on the beach. We all came home with rosy cheeks. The Spots had a great time, running, paddling, sniffing, playing, that’s the great thing about the beach,Continue reading “Formby Beach”

British Utilities Breed Association Champ Show
Bit naughty, sneaking off to a show on the older daughter’s birthday, but she is off doing an overnight scout challenge so I’m not going to get told off 🤣 Lottie did amazing, getting her first 1st in a class, Special Beginners Bitch, and then Reserve in a big Junior Bitch class. I was superContinue reading “British Utilities Breed Association Champ Show”
British Dalmatian Club Champ Show
A trip down to Stoneleigh today to the Kennel Club for the BDC champ show. Lottie didn’t get placed, but she showed her socks off … and then got very grubby with her sister!!
Twywn Beach
We took the Spots to Twywn beach after we’d had our railway trip, they needed a leg stretch as they had had to wait in the car, the carriages weren’t big enough for them to lie down in comfortably. The beach was really quiet, and the light was amazing. The tide was on its wayContinue reading “Twywn Beach”
Beach time
So we are on holiday for a few days in Wales. I’ve never been to this part of Wales and am looking forward to exploring with the Spots. We are 3 minutes walk from the beach, so once we’d unpacked it was coats and harnesses on to go and explore. The Spots loved the beach,Continue reading “Beach time”

Driffield Champ Show
Another show, another bench and another race course … oh and running on grass! Again I was on my own but Lottie’s breeder and Mac’s breeder was there so I had support from them. Lottie was placed reserve in her Puppy Bitch class, she even beat her sister! Nothing like a bit of sibling rivalryContinue reading “Driffield Champ Show”
Darlington Championship Show
Another early start and this time all on my own! First time going to a show with no family support! Lottie did really again, coming third in her Puppy Bitch class. No show ring photos as I didn’t have a photographer to take some, so just bench photos …
Off to Scotland
An early start for us as we went up to Edinburgh for the Scottish Kennel Club Champ shoe, and the Dalmatian Club of Scotland’s open show. As usual I was occupied by the girls and Mac came along for the ride! Lottie has got the benching down to a tea, just settles down and chills,Continue reading “Off to Scotland”

Our first Championship show with Lottie Lou. The girls are on a Scout camp for the weekend, so just Dave and I, we even left Mac chilling at home.
