Hi...

LadyDazzle most definitely has the genes of Sherlock Holmes.....

Going on nothing but the posts I have made here I was sitting at the ring today watching a class in my breed when this lady says.... 'Hello.... do you post on ChampDogs.... ' Well, my life flashed before my eyes.... how amazing is that! What a lovely lady, and a GORGEOUS dog - and sorry lady I couldn't stay and wait to see you strut your stuff ;). Will be watching to see how your girl did.

This was our 3rd show, and already have met some great people - today was a day where we learned soooo much. We also got some very encouraging words about our dog, and will be better prepared for the next show. If you read this, Gill in particular,  - can't thank you enough, you really helped and encouraged us! Thank you to the others with kind words for our boy Jack [7 months tomorrow but no birthday cake.. too long a story ;) ].

I posted a number of times here from when the idea to show was a few months in the future. I got some advice and help on this forum, thank you to those that gave it. I think in an early post the question for us on whether to continue showing after today was first if Jack enjoyed it - he LOVES it - and second if we enjoyed it, and after this our 3rd show we enjoy it more each time and so will be carrying on.

Excuse the waffle - NEVER realised how tiring these shows were.... especially carrying all the goods away from the venue ;).

To all those that showed over the week end hope you had a great time whether you came away with a certificate or not ;). To all those that are thinking about whether to show or not... from my experience give it a go, if you and your dog enjoy it then there is a whole new world there... my early fears were ungrounded, I should have known that those that love dogs are mostly lovely people - and thats my experience to date.

LadyDazzle.... next time I see you I expect you to be in a deer stalker ;).

regards Dave
