Our dog Chopper was doing brilliant in the endurance,he was joint 3rd until he sustained an injury which finished his weekend .We were gutted but we decided to enter him in the showing, he got a 1st in the smooth dog under 23" and 3rd in the puppy showing so we were over the moon with that! Great weekend :cheers:

After each event the scores will be added together and displayed for owners and spectators to track the dogs progression. Then at the end of the day the points will be accumulated and a total will be reached so we will be able to announce the most successful all-round Working Lurcher.

There will be a cash prize of £80 for the Winner,£40 for Reserve, and third will recieve £20,

We will also be presenting Personalised Certificates as keepsakes of the day along with Rossettes to the top six place winners .

HUGE THANKS to Linda & Keith & all their family for another well run show. I am beginning to understand now the MASSIVE amount work that goes into all the organisation (and that was only a one day show) It really is appreciated by alot more people than you realise. The fact that the dog food company ROYAL CANIN provided amazing sponsorship says it all !! Please note ! don't get your lurcher get hooked on it @ £39 a 15kg sack, (w00t) but I really think it is the best !!!!

Despite my hounds winning 2 of the showing championships, I was most impressed by the judge's (Mark Hitchen) treatment of dogs & exhibitors. No one can moan at this show that EVERY hound shown did not get their money's worth, I have not seen such a thorough examination of hounds being shown for a long time & every dog had the same amount of time- even the 'baby' puppies. Also I did notice how everybody ringside clapped all class winners, which seems to be missing at other shows. Such a friendly crowd.

As ever the running track was in perfect condition- it is still the BEST.

Here's to the next 10 years !!

Hope you are all having a well deserved rest.
