British Utility Breeds Association Champ Show

Just Seren and I went to BUBA, Lottie and Mac stayed at home and Ellie went on Explorer camp. Our last unbenched show (hopefully), so we pitched up in a quiet spot. Seren was entered in Minor Puppy and Puppy bitch, so she didn’t have to wait for a very long time to get inContinue reading “British Utility Breeds Association Champ Show”

Love a detailed critique

I was so pleased to get the critiques back from the judge at the Hyde and District Canine Association’s Open show in November.

Lottie won her Post graduate class too, whichContinue reading “Hyde and District Canine Association Open Show”

Seren graduates puppy class

I take all my puppies to puppy class, it’s an important part of their socialisation, learning to focus on me and work with distractions. Ellie took on the role of puppy training with Seren, and both of them have been amazing. Seren will now move on to puppy progression before working towards her Kennel ClubContinue reading “Seren graduates puppy 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 …”
