Seren’s second show and first Champ show, her first time out in a big ring. Lottie came along to show her the ropes, and give her some support. It was a very long day, with it being back to back Champ and Open shows, with lots of dogs entered. We started with the Champ show.Continue reading “North of England Dalmatian Club Champ and Open Shows”

Hyde and District Canine Association Open Show
Seren’s first ever show and Lottie’s first open show in 2 years! A nice local one to us, literally 15 minutes drive away. Seren was up first in Puppy, where she came first out of 4, coping well with running on mats and having puppies ‘chasing’ her. Lottie won her Post graduate class too, whichContinue reading “Hyde and District Canine Association Open Show”
Scottish Kennel Club Champ shows
We went up to Edinburgh for the May and October Scottish Kennel Club champ shows. In the May show Mac got a Reserve, Lottie wasn’t placed. In the October show Lottie got a reserve, Mac won his Limit class and went on to get the Reserve Dog Challenge Certificate, meaning he gets a Kennel ClubContinue reading “Scottish Kennel Club Champ shows”
Leeds Champ Show
Our first show since Crufts 2020! No benching, so we set up our crates in a quiet spot. Both Mac and Lottie showed their socks off, Mac getting a first in his class, and Lottie getting a third in her class.
We’ve been bit quiet because …
We’ve had puppies, well Lottie and Mac have had puppies! We welcomed 11 pups into the world and our home in April, 5 boys and 6 girls. They grew so fast, before we knew it they were earring solid food, playing outside all day and being cheeky! The time for them to go to theirContinue reading “We’ve been bit quiet because …”
A day out
As lockdown is lifting and it was a beautiful day yesterday, we took the opportunity to visit my parents. The Spots love where my parents live, plenty of space, water and cuddles. They had a lovely day, mooching, paddling and chilling out.
Chilling’
Everyone thinks that Dalmatians are very active … mine actively sleep! After their morning stomp, they love nothing better than to sleep in the sun until lunchtime! It does have its advantages as I can get on with my work in peace, well apart from the odd bout of snoring or dream squeaking!
Posing with the daffodils
We are lucky to have a little village green that always has beautiful daffodils at this time of year. Every year I intend to get photos of the Spots with the daffodils and every year I don’t get round to it. So this year I have had a couple of special outings to the greenContinue reading “Posing with the daffodils”
Play time in the paddock
Mac and Lottie get on really well and love playing together. However, they don’t often play on walks, even when there is lots of space, too busy moving forward and sniffing. So at least once a week I take them over to the paddock at work for a play. I also use the opportunity toContinue reading “Play time in the paddock”
Fun at the paddock
We took Lottie over to the paddock for a bit of quality girl time. Ellie loves doing tricks and fun stuff with Lottie.
