Anyone seen this? I thought it was excellent coverage, though perhaps some flyball / htm / JW might have been fun too. If only they would take over and do Crufts next year! Also Ellie was on TV!!!! Just before the first advert break when they are showing clips of dogs, the tricolour Cavalier sticking her nose into the camera is my girl!! And me and my friend are in shot behind Peter Purves during his interval in the next bit, albeit somewhat blurred. Cool though! :-)

It's being repeated though am not sure when, sorry!

There are four programmes so I hope they have some of that in store for one of those :) I'd especially love to see the JW. Toller display was very good though!

9pm on Friday 19th December then back to back 9pm & 10pm on Friday 26th December....I think. Repeated about 3 times on the Saturdays after and once on Sunday as well I think, though all that's off the top of my head so not necessarily accurate!

I've only seen the toller display part as it's up on u-tube for those with tollers and not Sky!  It was good but they missed the tolling demo due to camera's not being set up :(  such a shame as it's excellant shwing what the dog was bred to do.

I'm very tempted to go and get Sky, especially if they start filming Crufts....
- By magica [gb] Date 14.12.08 21:18 UTC
I watched this programme earlier on and loved it!
Thanks to whoever mentioned it such a good programme.
- By LucyDogs [gb] Date 14.12.08 21:18 UTC
Did you see us? Ok it was only 2 seconds for Ellie and a blurred background shot for me and my friend, but hey, who cares, it's the best we've ever managed!
- By JoFlatcoat (Moderator) [gb] Date 14.12.08 22:06 UTC
I watched it this evening - mainly stumbled on it as I didn't want to watch Sports Personality all evening!

Potentially a good programme, but the presenter needs some serious educating after she kept on about the 'Hound Championship' and the Dash-hounds - but never mind - sure someone will tell her........

I saw it Lucy, said hi Ellie when she came up.

Agree with Jo, potentially good, but presenter needs a bit of help with her terminology and breeds. Nice to see showing taken seriously though.

What is the chanel number for this programme? I have sky but have not seen this listed.
- By vinya Date 15.12.08 10:34 UTC
Horse and country. what package is that on, i am new to sky and have the mix package, is it on there?
- By magica [gb] Date 15.12.08 11:18 UTC
Its on lifestyle ?  sky channel 280.

Just like to mention one of the things I noticed that stood out was the mention several times of the importance of buying a puppy from a responsible breeder and seeing the parents of pups something that really needs telling now with all the bad press with pedigree dogs going around!
- By vinya Date 15.12.08 12:49 UTC
found it . thanks :)

Enjoyed the 2nd episode too, several more clips of me and my girl - fame at last! :-D
- By rachelsetters Date 21.12.08 07:57 UTC
have recorded it - will be looking out for you :)
- By Ells-Bells [gb] Date 21.12.08 16:53 UTC
Good to hear the talking about buying from responsible breeders. I missed the first episode - does anyone know if it featured the Southern Golden Retriever Display team at all?
- By LucyDogs [gb] Date 21.12.08 21:18 UTC
Haven't seen them yet, I can't believe they wouldn't show some part of their display though it's so impressive! Also hoping to see some HTM or flyball.... :-)
