After many 2nd places to her sister my eldest daughter finally got 1st place in the 6-11 years.

Whilst Jess has had the same dog and been able to practise with her own dog Emily has always borrowed a dog her and there.

Yesterday at South of England Gundog Emily borrowed Jennyb59's SWD Archie and he was an absolute star for her and she got 1st place, Jess took 2nd place.

One very proud mum here (I don't think Emily thought this day would come but for the last few shows she has looked much more confident so felt it was due).

Thanks Jenny your boy was a superstar all day it would seem :)

Aww thats fantastic congratulations to Emily (and you as well proud Mum) :-D

Wow! Way to go emily! Huge congratulations from me and big licks from bert :-)

Way to go Emily!!!!

Starting to feel better so think i'll be able to say it to her later at rc. :-)

Congratulations Emily - and to a very proud mum as well :-)

She was very confident & handled Archie very sympathetically.  I've tried to walk him up & down & failed miserably so she did a great job.  Well done to both of your girls.  I was so chuffed for Emily winning the class & she's not even mine hee hee!

Fantastic!  Well done Emily!  Well deserved.  Your such a good handler but remember to let Jess still win now and again!!! ;)

way to go Emilmy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
