South Wales Kennel Association champ show

It’s only the 2nd I have been to this champ show, back when Lottie was still a puppy!! Seren and I stayed in a lovely cottage the night before as it’s a long m, slow drive down from us. Seren enjoyed her quality cuddle time with me!! She was entered in 2 classes, Open bitchContinue reading “South Wales Kennel Association champ show”

Eira at 5 months

Where has the time gone!! I can’t believe the puppies are 5 months old already. Eira has been a busy girl, attending both puppy and ringcraft classes, going to hydro sessions with Lottie, and swimming and going on the hydro treadmill. She’s attended a couple of shows, and been in the show ring once. SheContinue reading “Eira at 5 months”

Darlington champ show and Dalmatian Club of Scotland Open show

This was a champ show with the club open show following on from the Champ show judging. Seren was entered in Limit in the champ show. I knows she wasn’t probably going to get placed, but she needs to get back in the ring and start settling down, she’s been quite fidgety. The club openContinue reading “Darlington champ show and Dalmatian Club of Scotland Open show”

City of Birmingham Champ show

We took Mac and Eire along, it was Eira’s first time at a champ show, she went along to get used to being in a crate, and experience the sounds and smells of a show. She had a wander round and even a little go in the ring after the show. Mac was in VeteranContinue reading “City of Birmingham Champ show”

Driffield Champ shows

So we are back showing after 8 months out!! There were 2 Champs shows as last year’s show was cancelled due to the storm. Driffield 2025 was judged by Jackie Kitchener. Mac took 2nd in a strong Open class. Seren was not placed in her large open class. Driffield 49th (last year’s show) was judgedContinue reading “Driffield Champ shows”

British Utility Breeds Association Champ Show

The last show of the year for us, and just Mac and Seren. It wasn’t really our day, Mac got a Very Highly Commended, Seren, in the biggest class of the day, wasn’t placed. We are now going to take some time out, have a rest and plan next year’s show schedule.

North of England Dalmatian Club champ show

I took Mac and Seren to the club show, with the damper weather I didn’t want Loodles in a crate all day. The hall was cold and the matting got slippier and slippier as the day went on. Both showed their socks off in strong, large classes, but it wasn’t their day. Seren, particularly, didContinue reading “North of England Dalmatian Club champ show”

British Dalmatian Club Champ Show

It was a huge entry for the BDC Champ show, with a judge for the girls (John McCarthy) and a judge for the dogs (Mrs Jenvall). Lots of class clashes as we had 2 rings, but all three got short listed in big classes and Lottie got reserve in her mid limit class, so aContinue reading “British Dalmatian Club Champ Show”
