I love being able to book a secure field for an hour every now and then. It’s a godsend when Mac is particularly sniffy, as it means I can relax, he can roam freely and walks don’t get cut short! I love this particular field, it’s got interesting agility style bits, woody parts and openContinue reading “Play field morning”

Cornwall
We’ve had a week away in Cornwall, first time for both the dogs and the girls. We found the most amazing holiday let for the week, walking straight out over fields, with amazing views. It was a week of firsts for both the girls and the Spots. First Cornish pasty, proper Cornish pasty!, first tripContinue reading “Cornwall”
Spring is well on its way
The days are getting longer, it’s getting drier and warmer, which means the Spots are enjoying more time outside. Mac and Lottie are having a few days away in the Lakes, Seren has stayed at home. It’s good to mix up who has time away, as you never know when you may need to separateContinue reading “Spring is well on its way”
Crufts Weekend
Whilst Crufts is the biggest dog show in the world, it’s still a dog show, just one that means long days! Only the girls came along, we decided taking 2 cars was a bit much, Dave wasn’t bothered about going, and Mac prefers to stay at home and mooch, rather than be benched for hours.Continue reading “Crufts Weekend”
Discover Dogs at Crufts
I love taking the girls’ to do Discover Dogs at Crufts. It’s a great opportunity to show off our amazing breed and dispel some myths people have about them. Both girls’ love saying hello, especially Lottie, who spent the 2 and a half hours smiling and sneezing at everyone! Seren found it a bit tiring,Continue reading “Discover Dogs at Crufts”
The Joint Dalmatian Clubs Champ Show
All three Spots went to the last Joint Dalmatian Clubs Champ show, and all came home with a rosette and place card. Seren was up first in a large Yearling class, and placed 3rd. I was pleased with this placing as she was a bit of a fidget bum, and kangarooed a bit on theContinue reading “The Joint Dalmatian Clubs Champ Show”

Spring is coming
Finally the signs of Spring are appearing. It’s hard to believe that this time two years ago we were planning the Ailsadot Astral litter. Both Mac and Lottie have matured nicely over the last couple of years, and Seren is beginning to mature, she’s still very much a puppy mentally, and going through another growthContinue reading “Spring is coming”
Manchester Champ Show
Our first time to this show, just the girls’. It was in the main hall at the Staffordshire County Show ground. It was very loud and the benching was away from the ring. As it’s the last chance to qualify for Crufts, the classes were large, 11 in Seren’s and 15 in Lottie’s. It wasContinue reading “Manchester Champ Show”
Boston Champ Show
First show of 2023, and we took a long trek south to Peterborough. Lottie, Seren and Beth were very excited as it meant a night in a hotel! And the girls’ love a hotel room! Seren was in a big Yearling class, and even though she was a bit fidgety, she still got placed second.Continue reading “Boston Champ Show”
