Play field morning

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”

We took Seren to a ringcraft workshop at Pearlwynd Ringcraft, just to help iron out a couple of bad habits and see if we could improve anything. It was a fantastic session, lots to think about, a few tweaks to be made, but it reassured us we were going in the right direction. I wasn’tContinue reading “Ringcraft workshop”

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”
