Just had a phone call from one of my girl's offspring's owners and he was Reserve in his class at Blackpool. Its his first big show. I am chuffed to bits. As a novice breeder who kept a girl to show (and cant yet due to stuff) I am really happy. The top breeder in my breed (tts), who is also a judge, went over to them and asked who had bred him AND ITS ME!!!!!!!! Whoo! (Sorry but so happy)

Thats great Annie.  Wots his name.  I have 3 tt's and I've decided to return Alice to the show ring in veteran class.  Was it Ken Sinclair who approached them if so that must have been special and a feather in your cap

It was Ken, yes. He actually oversaw the breeding but obviously wasnt aware of that at the show. Stud was one of his lads. Simba actually lives in Fleetwood so they hadnt far to go. He is Mylayagold Redwood Star. Ken actually suggested they fattened Simba up a bit!!!

Brilliant!!

Aww way to go.  A dog that I bred didn't do that bril in his breed class but got Best Rare Breed Dog, so I was really pleased with that.

Isnt it a fab feeling. Well done!! For me, its sort of compensation for not being able to show myself at the moment. Maybe soon if things improve.

What age covers veteran class as a matter of interest?

7 and over on the day of the show

well done, fantastic result.

thank-you all. am so chuffed I cant tell you. Its been a difficult time and this is such a good thing to happen. Lets hope he continues to win.
Might think about showing my older girl when things get back to normal. She is four now so obviously not too old yet.
Any tt owners!! How long would you think it would take to grow a full coat from scratch? Had to have her skimmed when visiting my brother she managed to roll in some horrible sticky green stuff in a field. Luckily it didnt touch her skin but she is right at the shortest length now.
