We took Eira to Darwen Canine society’s Premier Open show last weekend. She was the only girl in the class, and behaved really well. Sadly the ring was tiny so she couldn’t settle into her stride. She got placed 2nd, so I was over the moon with her. We went to Sedgley and Gornal’s premierContinue reading “A couple of Open shows”

North of England Champ show
Only Eira was entered, and unfortunately she still has issues when being presented to the judge, so no placing for her. She was better than the last show and happy to say hello to lots of people.
British Dalmatian Club Champ show
Lottie took Eira to Eira’s first champ show. It was a big entry, so loud and echoey. Eira was in a big minor puppy class and unfortunately was spooked so didn’t stand for the judge. she looked fab in the line up and ran well. Lottie was in her first class as a veteran andContinue reading “British Dalmatian Club Champ show”
Handling class
Eira and I attended a handling class run by Marina White. It was a 2 hour workshop but quite intensive for both Eira and myself. We learned a few tips and have come away feeling quite confident about starting Eira’s show career.
Hydrotherapy
Eira has been having some fun swim and hydro treadmill sessions. She doesn’t need them, but I want her get used to them in case she needs hydrotherapy treatment in the future. Whilst she’s a bit vocal she doesn’t need them love these sessions, maybe a bit too much!! She loves splashing rather than swimmingContinue reading “Hydrotherapy”
The Dalmatian Association show
Lottie and Eira went to the Dalmatian Association breed show and fun dog show. It was Eira’s last baby Puppy class, and Lottie’s last show before she becomes a veteran! Eira won her Baby Puppy class was was awarded Best Baby Puppy in show. She was really good, a bit fidgety round the judge butContinue reading “The Dalmatian Association show”

I love meeting up with the puppies we have bred, especially when they live along way away. Jorge, Mr Yellow, Ailsadot Blue World, called in on his way north today. He’s maturing into a lovely boy, love his markings and he has a lovely temperament. We took Jorge, Eira and Seren for a play onContinue reading “Play date”
Eira at 5 months
Where has the time gone!! I can’t believe the puppies are 5 months old already. Eira has been a busy girl, attending both puppy and ringcraft classes, going to hydro sessions with Lottie, and swimming and going on the hydro treadmill. She’s attended a couple of shows, and been in the show ring once. SheContinue reading “Eira at 5 months”
Darlington champ show and Dalmatian Club of Scotland Open show
This was a champ show with the club open show following on from the Champ show judging. Seren was entered in Limit in the champ show. I knows she wasn’t probably going to get placed, but she needs to get back in the ring and start settling down, she’s been quite fidgety. The club openContinue reading “Darlington champ show and Dalmatian Club of Scotland Open show”
Eira goes to ringcraft
It’s important that show puppies learn from an early age what to do in the ring, how to stand and move on a show lead. I have been taking Eira to a couple of ringcraft. We were lucky to get on a puppy based ringcraft at Allstars dog training near Crewe. The 4 week courseContinue reading “Eira goes to ringcraft”
