CRUFTS 2022
All three Spots qualified for Crufts this year, so off we went to the biggest dog show in the world. This was Mac and Seren’s first time, Lottie’s second time, and classes were huge!

We’ve done a few Open Shows …
Barrow and District Open Show: Mac and Seren made an appearance for this show, Mac’s first open show since 2018!

Ringcraft
Another fabulous night at ringcraft. It was a bit warm, but neither Mac or Seren seemed to mind. Seren was a little less bouncy, jut a little 🤣🤣
Ringcraft
Another great night at ringcraft. Mac stood beautifully and ran really well. He was just very vocal and sniffy 🤦🏽♀️ Seren also had a go, she was very bouncy, just like a kangaroo! The two of them had some down time and fusses with Beth.
First ringcraft in a while
After months away, I took Mac back to ringcraft tonight. Considering he hasn’t been in a ring since February 2020, he coped really well. it was great just getting back into the swing of showing and seeing faces I haven’t seen in months and months. We took Seren too, she sat in her crate, hadContinue reading “First ringcraft in a while”
