Hey John, thanx for the nice write up about my wee 'Torri' :thumbsup:

i really had a good day, i thought the layout and the turnout was geat, the race was a good length and great ground other than it being a bit dry :- " lol, the weather was great aswell, hopefully its just as good if not better next year! :thumbsup:

Top show John, really well put together and a great day out. I wasn't expecting such a well run show or there to be such a good turnout. Will you be getting the same weather for next year? 8) Hopefully Siva will have had the chance to do a bit of running by then. I had to leave before the final races, dog was going nuts and i was worried about her hurting herself. I did get to see Torri doing her victory lap with the lure. LOL Well done Miss M, Torri done you proud, Saturday & Sunday. It was nice speaking to you and your dad at the weekend, i had a great couple of days and met loads of new people.

I went to the show at Ardoyne Fleadh today run by the MAWTLC. It was a pretty small affair, but not a bad turnout. There was a good crowd from the local area so naturally the biggest classes were for pets, still its good to show your dog in front of a crowd - although a few heavy showers soon dispersed them. Best in show went to a lovely blue/grey dog who's name i didn't get. I didn't hang about for the racing, i needed to get dried out and Siva would've gone mad again :rant: Well done to Frankie for turning up the day after moving house, although i reckon he just wanted to get out of doing any unpacking (w00t)

Does anybody know of any shows before the All Irelands? I like to try Siva out on a run before then to make sure shes running ok.

Hey streaky, it was nice meeting you too, its good to put names to faces :thumbsup: siva is a lovely dog she did well for you both days aswell winning the 'best in show' on saturday and getting placed on sunday aswell, im sure she will do just aswell in the racing when she is able to run again :thumbsup:

there should be a couple more shows coming up before the all-irelands, there is still the Braid Country Fair which is normally around the end of august and then there is the Tullylish show which should be coming up soon aswell, so we should all keep our eyes peeled for shows being advertised in the telegragh, buy&sell and the ads for free! :blink:

im sure if any of us find the dates they will be posted up here right away :thumbsup:
