To Cheer James up we took, Prima, Tarka and Summer to a Companion and Family dog show, I was kennel maid and Andrew, (yes Andrew!) and James did the showing. James won best pedigree with Prima, he then took Summer in and won Best Mover, Andrew was 4th in most appealing eyes with Tarka and 2nd in best local dog, James beat 30 kids for best Junior handler then he went in for Best in Show and won it with PRIMA. It really lifted his spirits, it was a fun relaxed afternoon, I didn't do a thing! and Andrew joined in. Zeta stayed home on the sofa with Mum, Leah, I think she watched the Grand Prix! so she had a relaxing time too.
Really proud of James and the dogs as there was a lot of Terriers there, a lot of which kept diving out to have a go at the girls and not one of them, curled a lip. James just did his thing bless him.
This is what he won with the three dogs, 3 x 1st, 2 x 2nd, 1 x 4th Best in show, a shield which goes back, but a trophy to keep load of dog food and treats and a box of Crackerjacks. It cost £8 for entries, and to think a champ show is £20 a class and if you do win the most you get is a piece of card board, I mean certificate not even a rosette. Maybe we should stick to fun local dog shows!!!!!!!!!!
