We always enjoy coming to this show and seeing lots of our friends.
It is warm and there are always lots of people there, so very noisy at times. But we enjoyed ourselves as always. I was not placed but Tummel came 2nd.

Critiques
Tummel: 2. Tuer and Parker-Smith’s Lignum Money Talks At Bratticus, masculine dog of pleasing outline and balance, rather loaded in shoulders which adversely affected his movement

Well, this was an early start today for an over 2 hours long journey but, what a lovely show. Very friendly, even though parking was tricky! We arrived very early as entry numbers were not given, so we had lots of walkies before we went in the ring. Mummy had to buy new boots because her sole fell off the original pair!
Still it was all worth it because Tummel came first in his limit class, his first limit class and I came 1st in mine, then went on to get Best of Breed too. So M was very happy!

Little did we, John and I, know that this would be Rannoch's final official dog show outing. He thoroughly enjoyed himself as always.
Tummel was 2nd in the PG. Rannoch won the limit and then was awarded RBOB too.
​
We are awaiting the critiques for this show. Meanwhile, Rannoch continues to love life on three legs!
