Frank Kane (he of Crufts fame) was judging Dalmatians at Leeds, so I decided to take all three to the show. The girls showed their socks off in big classes, Mac was less enthusiastic on the run, so didn’t get as highly placed as he could have done, but that life. Mac got third inContinue reading “Leeds Champ Show”
