Puppies!

We took a long journey north today to visit a very special litter of puppies. Mac sired 11 puppies, 9 boys and 2 girls in early February, with the beautiful Mia, Sophtspot Golly Gosh at Appenine, and today we got to visit them and cuddle them. The girls had to come with me, try tellingContinue reading “Puppies!”

Crufts

We’ve been to Crufts! What an experience, for both Lottie and myself, oh and Ellie and Beth, they had to come too! When I first got Mac I never thought I’d be running round the green carpet with a spotty dog. Yesterday day Lottie went for a groom to get her all clean andContinue reading “Crufts”

The Dalmatian Joint Clubs Champ Show

So today we went to Stoneleigh KC for the Joint Dalmatian Clubs champ show. It was a bit of a family affair, both girls, hubby and both dogs came, first time in 2 years that Mac stepped into the ring, for a multitude of reasons. Lottie got Very Highly Commended in a big junior class,Continue reading “The Dalmatian Joint Clubs Champ Show”

Ringcraft

I usually go to ringcraft in my own with one of the Spots. Tonight Beth decided she would like to come. After watching for a while she decided to have a go with Lottie, and she did really well.

A walk in the deer park

We took the Spots and girls to a nearby National Trust deer park for a walk. The park is always busy and dogs need to be on leads, but every now and then it’s nice to go and see the deer. Both Spots love the smells and aren’t bothered by the deer,although they are partialContinue reading “A walk in the deer park”

Christmas in the Lakes

My parents live on the edge of the Lake District, and we spend Christmas there. It’s quiet, relaxing and very cosy, and we have the chance of snow!No snow this year, but no rain so that’s a plus. We took the Spots to Ullswater for a walk and a paddle. Lottie does love a paddle,Continue reading “Christmas in the Lakes”

Formby Beach

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”

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”
