Blackpool


  • @moetmum:

    I have no idea who is going over to the WS, I don't know of anyone. It's not a judge I particularly want to go under, I was persuaded to go for the caravan break.

    At least she hasn't been over Pip before!

    Shame you're not coming. We are in ring 3 BTW

    I only know of Tracey but not sure if she is just showing her other breeds or not. Trish is going over but don't know if she is just specating or showing but apart from them don't know who else!!

    Ah well it will be a nice break for you but have to agree it's not a judge I would rush to go under really. I probably won't be going south of the border until I have my next puppy out next year as not many judges I fancy this year to be honest:rolleyes: I would normally come down for LKA but as I will hopefully have a litter I won't be going this year plus the judge doesn't suit;)


  • Who is the judge??

    Worried now lol!


  • Isobel Dyke, she has judged before so I would think the unimpressed southerners would give it a miss. I saw her give a B pup a puppy hound group at a champ show that had no legs and has since been re-homed. The pup was short in leg not the show :D

    I hadn't intended going but got talked into for the break. Caravanning with the dogs is sometimes more enjoyable than the actual show. We have met a lot of different people in different breeds and found out so much about them.

    ID originally had afghan hounds. She started out about the same time as I did, quite a long time ago.


  • Ahh.. Well, could be an interesting one! Its not a judge i've ever heard of, but very few of the basenji's are people I know of anyway so thats nothing new. We're going for the same reason as you - Nice weekend in the caravan and im told Blackpool is lovely for caravanning! :D So, not expecting anything in the ring, I definately wont be now…!!

    I hope to go to LKA, she gave Rufus RCC at his first show. She also wanted to use him at stud but when Rufus came back a carrier she couldn't as she was one of these people who at that time wasn't really convinced about the test and hadn't tested.

    She did test her girls and they both came back clear but too late!

    I might also have a litter this year so may have to miss it too.

    You never know Jess as she gave Millie BOB when she did LKA in 07:)

    Oh, thats interesting.. At least she doesnt have the problem with tri's that some judges seem to have!

    Well, if we get placed great, if not, we will still have a wonderful weekend and Maya will love it im sure :D She loves the caravan!

    Ah well at least you stand as good a chance as any then as you know she likes him. For me it is more personal reasons, nothing to do with her not liking my dog;)


  • They do love caravanning don't they. I will feel guilty leaving Rufus and Kia behind.

    The judge also gave Millie BIS at the Hound Show in Scotland a few years back. I have everything crossed for you Jess, you could do really well, about time too!

    We will just see what happens!

    No comment ;) Bloomin' judges!!!

    I actually really enjoyed the more relaxed weekend at SKC when we camped. Didnt have to rush about at the crack of dawn getting ready, just got up and had a chilled out morning. Maya thought she was on holiday, she just loved it!! :D

    @Roux I have to live with the dogs 24/7. The judge sees them for maybe 3 minutes. My preference tops his/hers !

    @eeeefarm said in Complete newbie to showing: ... I had a husky/shepherd crossbred that was the same way. Put a muddy dog in the barn at night, open the door to a perfectly clean one in the morning! What the...? Did they wipe themselves with a horse? :face_with_tears_of_joy:
