We were at crufts this week  and on thursday had our rescue stall on the Lab ring we were there in Hall 5  it was fairly easy to get about and  cafes were ok no major queues.
A bit of a  rush at the end of Judging as people swarmed from Bitch ring to dog ring, a nice day.

TODAY ! well we nipped in today before heading home  for a bit of shopping and it was chaos in all my years going to Crufts ive never seen so many people :( surely this is an acccident waiting to happen because if for any reason that place had to be evacuated it would be chaos in the extreme,people pushing and shoving.
I would imagine they should have some kind of number where after  it is unsafe to have so many people there,I would  recommend anyone who wants to go for the first time that mid week is a safer bet.

Still its Crufts greatest show on earth :) nothing quite like it.
My Lab who was entered couldnt go due to being out of coat when I returned home she was snoozing on the chair bet she was glad she was  at home :)

MMum and I found that 4 years ago!!!
The Friday was Gundog day, and a busy but noce day.
Saturday Working and Utilty, a NIGHTMARE!!!!!! We left early as had had enough!! So many people looking shocked that a dog was getting in their way as if the dogs shouldnt be there!!!!!

Delilah, Zorro and I did the afghan stand at Discover Dogs at Crufts today and it was a nightmare walking through the halls....fortunately the two of them remained calm and behaved excellently whilst getting through the crowds, its was sooooooo  packed! Once on the stand there were throngs of people, almost three rows deep half the time, gathering around our stand :-)
