Life with Spots
3rd show in a week for Seren, and her best outing of the week, she was really on form. She won a large Junior Bitch class.
Having won her Junior class, she went up against the Junior dog winner for Best Junior in Breed. She beat him, being crowned Best Junior in Breed. Whilst she got nothing in the Group, I floated home, as she’d beaten a dog that had won a Reserve Dog Challenge Certificate.
A day out for all three Spots, just up the road to the Cheshire Show ground. It was incredibly hot, luckily we managed to get some cover do the dogs were in the shade.
All three got placings, Mac won his Open class and Best in Breed, Lottie got Reserve in Post Graduate, and Seren came 3rd in Junior.
Seren and I had a road trip to Llangollen for the Ruthin Canine Society show.
Sadly she was the only Dalmatian there, so she won her class and got Best in Breed.
She didn’t get placed in group, but got 2nd in AV Utility Junior, and 3rd in AV Junior stake, winning herself some pocket money.
Lovely critiques for my girls ❤️❤️

JUNIOR BITCH -9 ents – 3 abs
1st Mrs C Wallington – Ailsadot Astral Lyra
Attractive B&W sound construction and the best mover in the class. Holds her excellent top line standing four square and when moving. Good lay of shoulder and strong front. Super tight cat like feet. Excellent reach of neck. Feminine head and lovely broken ears. Dark eye.
POST GRADUATE BITCH – 9 ents – 3 abs
2nd Mrs C Wallington – Kaytoni Isn’t She Lovely At Ailsadot
Pleasant B&W nicely constructed. Standing foursquare looks a picture.She seemed a little unsettled to day but once settled she moved around the ring with drive.
And the Dalmatian Club of Scotland Open show
Ellie and I travelled north to Edinburgh for the SKC and DCoS shows. We went up on Saturday, stopped off to look at the Kelpies, and stayed in a hotel. The girls love a hotel stay!
The girls’ showed their socks of at both shows, they are such stars in the ring.

A lovely, sunny day out for Seren and myself. We got a 3rd in a strong Junior class.
Seren enjoyed playing with a spotty friend and loved her ice cream.
I love a critique!

AV Utility: PB
2 Wallington’s Dalmatian, Ailsadot Astral Lyra. A very feminine bitch with a well proportioned head and a dark intelligent eye, she was good to handle, deep in brisket, well ribbed with good front and rear angulation, she moved well holding her shape and moved with a brisk even stride.

North of England Dalmatian Club Open Show – 17th April 2022.
Junior Bitch. (7, 5).
Beth accompanied me and the girls to the National Dog Show at the Stafford Showground. It was lovely having her around to chat to, usually it’s big sister Ellie that comes with me when I have 2 or more dogs in the ring.
It was warm day, so the outside ring was a little warm!
Seren got 3rd in Junior and 1st in Novice, so has qualified for Crufts 2023.
Nothing for Lottie but she had a blast, she’s missed being the show girl. It was the first time out after Crufts for Lottie and she loved it! Maybe a little too much, as she rolled round the grass ring in front of the judge 🤣
It’s the first time I’ve gone to WELKS, and I just took Seren. It was her first time on grass and outdoors so lots of new experiences to soak up. She didn’t get placed, but did me proud.
Where has the year gone, I can’t believe it’s been a year since the 11 Ailsadot Astral puppies made their appearance.
To celebrate we had a birthday party, which 9 of the puppies and Lottie attended. They all enjoyed themselves, loved playing with each other. The owners also loved catching up with each.
The puppies had treats, toys and cake!
