Welsh Kennel Club - good luck!
-
Good luck to all who are traveling to Wales for the Welsh Kennel Club show tomorrow.
Unfortunately i never get to go to it - am vice-chairman of a local canine society, and our open show is always on same day as Welsh. I am the only committee member under the age of 70 - only 5 of us ever turn up to shows - so i have to do all the heavy lifting lol.
This year i will have added fun because my cousin is getting married on the same day - so i have to collect committee who dont drive, take them to show, do all the set up, steward till lunchtime, then rush home for a quick shower -
throw on the kilt, and head to the wedding. I will be in dire need of a whisky by that time! meanwhile you lot will be sitting about chatting in the lovely welsh scenery, and taking the occasional trot around the showring. I know where i would rather be…. -
Just checked the results - Vals puppy bitch got CC & Best of Breed, and Rusty's puppy dog got dog CC. Dont think either of them are on Forum, but well done anyway.
Thats a third CC for both of them - but cant claim their title till they get another cc over the age of 12 months - anyone know if thats happened in Basenjis before?

Thats really good, she is still a minor puppy isn't she, update on Jess and Maya, she won the junior stakes! Well done Jess and Maya, I expect she will post later, with pics I hope!
I think she is yes.
Well done Maya & Jess:D
I see Millie won the champ stakes and Riley was reserve, certainly a good day for b's in the stakes classes:D

Hi All,
We had a lovely day, WKC is a favourite of mine! Congrats to Val & Rusty of course, they are both doing so well.
My little star has to go back on sunday to compete for a place in the Junior Stakes Finals! Its my birthday Sunday so fingers crossed!
I took tonnes of pictures of my mum handling Maya in the breed classes, and she got some video of me in the Stakes. I will sort them out and post tomorrow :)

Ch St Erme Jolly Swagman did it; he won his title with his fourth CC at Crufts in 1987. A few years earlier I think Ch Azenda Wenohow was another.. May have been more, but before my time!

There was some sitting about and chatting, but the scenery consisted of a large tent with patches of mud for an exercise area and the weather ranged from dull and cold, windy with frequent showers to brief hot and sunny intervals.
You really did not miss much!
