Not to the judges liking today but they all went well and we couldn't ask for more. The 2 Skye puppies look so immature but they both went well for onlytheir 2nd show. Our judges today were Mrs. A. Walters (Goytre) for Beardies and Mrs. J. Marshall (Jepejo).
What a super day! delighted with the performance of all our dogs today particularly as the Hall was so big and echoey. Rhona and Inca took it all in their stride and made us very proud . Lovely day enhanced by the companionship of good friends. Thanks to Judges Ed Casey (Moyglass)for the Terrier classes and BVIS, Michaela Dunhill (Fantasa/Vormund) for Bearded Collie breed classes , Steve Atkinson (Holinswell)for AV Pastoral Vet. and Emma Archibald Abinvale) for the Groups. The downside was I forgot my camera!
Thank you to judge Mrs. Yvonne Fox (Bushblades)for her placings for Clover and Lottie who were both on their best behaviour. Lucas also put on a good show under judge Mrs. Kim Evans (Treebeard). Hal and Fern did not appeal to the judges today but we had a lovely day with good friends .
Thank you to judge Mr. S. McArdle (Mcarmadale) for thinking so highly of Hal. Clover was still in season but Rhona came for the ride and took it all in her stride.
What a great day for Hettie. Clover was supposed to go but was in season however Lottie was there and continues to progress well. Thanks to judges Mrs. Sue Mycroft (Supeta) and Mr. Tony Allcock (Sleepyhollow).
As Chris was busy at a Skye Terrier committee meeting Tony and Clover took themselves off to our local show and did reasonably well under judges Mr. Barry Blunden (Licassa) and Mr. Peter Pavey (Joneva). Clover was the only one in PG as there wasn't a Puppy class and her opposition was absent. Fortunately she had some quality pups to compete against in the Puppy Group making the trip worthwhile.
Nice outing on a frosty sunny day , hall was a bit chilly but we are hardy folk us dog exhibitors. Clover was her usual exhuberant self and Shadow showed well despite not being out very often due to being in the process of acquiring a new jacket. Delighted with Lottie who with her mum Lizzie was well placed particularly in the Sp. Awards class where she was amongst many older dogs. Thank you to our judges Carol Charles( Snikkles) and Liz Ayrton ( Aoibh) Judging the Specials.
As Tony is Sec. and I am on the committee we do not show at this show . Lottie and Lizzie did us proud under Judges Mr. John Ferrigno( Chillibears) and Mr. Dave Morrant .
Clover enjoyed herself! Hal and Lucas were good boys. Our judge today was all rounder Mr. Jeff Luscott (Jalus).
Clover was entered but had been coughing so stayed at home. Lovely to Lizzie and Lottie in the ring, both coming along well. Our judge today was Mr. John Steele .
Good day with old friends and Clover and Shadow enjoyed their trip out. Thanks to judges Mr. T. Hadley (breed) and Mrs. J. Large (Group)

Wow! Well that was a day to remember! Many , many thanks to our judge, breed specialist Mrs. Cath Parker (Osmart) for her awards today . "Hettie" was hampered by Chris in the challenge as well so it makes it more of a feat!
Tony was flying solo for this show so had his orders ensuring they were groomed to perfection. He must have done a half decent job I guess! Many thanks to our judge Mrs. Stella clarke (Astrellita) for a lovely day.

What a brilliant day for Clover! Thanks to judges Mr. Ian Entwistle and Ms. Gill Marley (Myrlea).
What a great day thanks to judge Mr. Robin Newhouse (Annecy).
Due to health issues and building work we have not been anywhere this year so it was pleasing to see Lucas, Clover and Hal doing well in their repective classes under judge Mr. Graham Hill (Dimland).
After 4 years with no puppies our 2nd litter arrived, 4 beautiful Skye puppies from Badger and Isla; 3 bitches and 1 dog. They now have home except for Rhona who will stay here to deafen us!
Fern produced a lovely litter of 5 puppies to Raffy (Ch. Malandex Most Xciting JW) : 3 bitches and 2 dogs. They all secured great homes with previous Beardie owners and Clover remained here to torment us all.
