The Welsh Kennel Club Champ Show

It’s only the 2nd time I’ve gone to Builth Wells for a show, it’s not that far, but it takes nearly 4 hours! We booked a lovely AirBnB about 30 minutes from the Showground to make it easier to get to in the morning. It was a really cold, wind day, struggled to believe it’sContinue reading “The Welsh Kennel Club Champ Show”

Mac’s critique from DCoS

Mac’s critique from Dalmatian Club of Scotland, judge Lauran WheatonVeteran dog2nd Wallington’s Sophtspot In The Zone – He pushed the first dog all the way, it wasn’t a straightforward decision. This boy is also handsome with a masculine head. Well balanced, nicely boned, good feet, nice depth and width of chest. He has good angulationContinue reading “Mac’s critique from DCoS”

Holiday time

Following on from the shows at Kelso we booked to stay in a cottage in Lanton. Dave and I split the holiday between there and the Lakes as my parents haven’t been so good. We did get a bit of time as a family. We did a bit of sight seeing, found some lovely walksContinue reading “Holiday time”

Critiques from Boston Champ Show

Judge Lee CoxSerenLimitThe largest class of the day and some really good bitches in it.1: Ailsadot Astral Lyra (Mrs C Wallington). b/s of obvious quality and superb for type, delightful head and expression, well off for substance but totally feminine. Moved out precisely. In great condition. With the average amount of luck, she should beContinue reading “Critiques from Boston Champ Show”

Scottish Utility Breeds Association Champ show, and Dalmatian Club of Scotland Champ show

I love a joint champ show, and it’s a first for us, going to Kelso, and for the first SUBA champ show. Yesterday we took Mac and Seren his time, although Lottie did join us later to say hi to people! We started with SUBA, with Mac in Veteran, I still can’t believe he’s aContinue reading “Scottish Utility Breeds Association Champ show, and Dalmatian Club of Scotland Champ show”

Boston Champ show

Ellie and I went to Boston Champ show with Seren and Lottie. We’ve never been to the Rutland showground so it was a bit of an adventure for us, and started with a quick stop for breakfast at MacDonalds. Ellie does love a hash brown or two 🤣. It was a lovely day and weContinue reading “Boston Champ show”

Time in the Lakes

Seren is currently in season so she is having a holiday in the Lakes. She is loving mooching, playing with her frisbee and Mac’s ball. The weather is being kind to us, lots of sunshine. She’s got about another week to go before she returns home. I’m jealous that I can’t spend it with her,Continue reading “Time in the Lakes”

Critique from the Scottish Kennel Club May Show

Seren’s critique from the May SKC show. Thank you to judge Jenny Wright for such a comprehensive, honest and helpful critique.I always find showing Seren more stressful than Lottie or Mac, maybe it’s because she’s my homebred baby, and my pick of the litter, but I love what she does in the ring and howContinue reading “Critique from the Scottish Kennel Club May Show”

Mud, glorious mud!

We took the Spots to a secure field, as Mac is super sensitive to smells at the moment so has to be on a lead for walks. The secure field allows him to mooch around rather than going where I am. The pond/puddle has become a squelchy mud pond, and all 3 loved going forContinue reading “Mud, glorious mud!”
