As each year the Crufts organisers seem to announce that it is yet another record entry, do you think that the show entry is getting too big since the qualification rules were relaxed a few years ago? Some breeds like Golden Retrievers will need to have 3 judges soon as they are over the...
Has anyone else heard the rumour that Terry Thorn is having to withdraw from his judging appointments because of ill health?
If true, has anyone any idea of who the replacement judge will be?

I was told that a couple of "foreign" whippets had been seen in the fields at Preston Down - that it my usual walk as I live just around the corner from there! At least it looks as though you had quite a nice day for it - just try walking up there in an easterly gale with the rain lashing...
Yesterday was the first time I have ever missed this show since I set the Club up many moons ago but the pup hasn't been well and I just wasn't prepared to risk it, particularly after Woody was so ill following the September show but well done to all those who had a good day, particularly to...
Does anyone have the results?
I have heard that one of the Janelyn dogs was BIS and Libby Clarke' Willingwisp Twist & Shout for Arjuna was RBIS and that a dog was best puppy other than that......nothing!
Someone must know, please
A good way of stopping ears bleeding is to dab a bit of cornflour on the wound. This seals it up (bit like if you put flour on liver to seal it before cooking) and after the bleeding has completely stopped, the cornflour will eventually crumble off - I have done this many times when the boys...
he is by Kevin Ellis' Railfield Raindust (Ch. Oakbark Millenium Gold/Railfield Raindrop) out of Lisa du Maurier's Oakbard Magical Cracker at Chibuku JW (Multi Ch Airescot Ruby Rascal/Ch Oakbark Mystical Pride). I am cursing big time as he will be 1 day too young for WELKS!!
Have your tried looking on the PawVillage.com website? A friend of mine with salukis has managed to research her chap's pedigree as far back as the first import into this country in 1919 with loads of photos of his ancesters. Most impressive!

Poor Woody is feeling very hard done by at the moment having to cope with "baby teeth"...
Unless your dog is either very young, very old or has a heart problem then he should recover from Kennel Cough without too many problems. The vet will probably prescribe some antibiotics to prevent a secondary infection but one thing that does help is human Benylin cough medicine. Try to get...
05 was probably just a little better, showing wise, with Woody getting Res Best Dog in South West Whippet Club spring show, Best dog and RBIS at their autumn show, BIS at Totnes etc. BUT 06 wasn't half bad either starting with 2nd in Post Grad at Crufts, 1st in Post Grad at WELKS, a couple of...
Brilliant news - it couldn't have happened to a nicer owner (dog is not half bad either!!). Give Stanley a massive cuddle from his auntie and tell him I will have a special biscuit treat for him next time I see him.
