Friday we were at Crufts to man the Laekenois booth for discover dogs. The dogs were absolutely fantastic and loved all the attention and fuss, i was especially impressed with Haramis as he has only been in the country 3 weeks, he was not bothered by anything.
I managed to sneak off a few times while Callum maned the booth and spend some money on things i don't really need !



Sunday we were back at Crufts again, this time to show. We had a very good day with results as follows, Tervueren we had 3 pups in the first five of the puppy bitch class, Scarlet 2nd, Coral 3rd, Cerise 5th. Adonis was 3rd in puppy dog, Giorgia, 4 th in limit bitch. In Groenendaels Barney had a 2nd in post graduate dog and finally in Laekenois Gaby had a 1st in yearling bitch and then had Reserve Best Bitch.
Pat was very pleased with Barney and Coral as this was her first time at Crufts, so congratulations to her.
Don't know where the time goes to when you are showing there, by the time we had finished showing and caught our breath we just about managed to do a little more shopping.
We were given tickets for best in show and as Callum had nagged us for years to stay for it i decided to let him go and watch it. That was a mistake, i watched it on the big screen but could hardly keep awake, we never left till 9.3o so by the time we got home it was close on 11 0'clock.
Paul then went down to the horses and took the dogs out (they do have their uses after all)every one thought we had gone mad.
It took 2 days to recover, we must be mad? Till the next time!
