After a horrible day today (I don't even feel up to writing about it yet, but one of my dogs is at the vets overnight and one other once again has an uncertain future) I got some news which really did prove to be the silver lining of today's cloud. A puppy I've bred got a Reserve Green Star at Dublin today, he's also qualified for the Celtic Winners show and he has 7 of the 12 necessary points needed towards his junior diploma, as well as 3 BOBs at open shows, all at 8 months of age. :D

Oh Marianne.  Hope things are OK.
Lovely news about your youngster though.

Keep in touch,
Sarah.

(((Hugs))) Marianne........ Hope tomorrow will be a better day for you. Sending positive thoughts and vibes.....

CONGRATS !!!!! on the Irish results....... the puppy is doing really well. :D
We were going to go to this show but I wasn't sure whether I would feel up to travelling so didn't send the entry in....

Thinking of you,
Love Gabrielle xx

The trials and tribulations of dog ownership indeed.

Many Congratulations on the pups' RGS - you should feel very proud :)

Best wishes and positive thoughts on the other part of your post.

Oh Marianne I hope you are alright sorry to hear you,re having an awful time

The pup's a super silver lining though!! :) hope you have more to smile about today x x
We'r all here if you need to scream shout cry or kick something ;) x x x

Thanks all. :) All dogs present again right now, the one at the vets back home (Ripley, who was injured) -screamed all night apparently, wanting to go home, vet said "If I'd WANTED any carol singers I'd have ORDERED them!" LOL. I still won't go into everything right now simply because I am trying to get my head round things first and make some important decisions.

Well done for your pup, and hope things continue to improve at home!

Congratulations on your pup at the show.

Hope all goes well with your other two

Sharon

congratulations on breeding such a super pup :) :)

Hope it all works out with the others

Bit late but I hope things get better for you soon, and well done pupper.

Glad to hear Ripley is back home. Wow, winning pups and a carol singer to boot - she is a star ;-)

Big hugs to all involved. (now that you can get your arms around her) :-D
