Highland CA Open Show

Highland CA held their annual summer show at Dingwall Mart on Saturday 31st July. The rain threatened a few times but never really came to anything, which was a good thing seeing as the gundog, working and pastoral rings were all outdoors.

It was a good day for Spey Valley with lots of wins for members, including the top spot, which was won by Junes Benson. I think this must be his 10th Best In Show!

Linda and Rons Hugo was also up there at the top, he took Reserve Best Puppy In Show!

Plenty of others to report:

Terrier - Jock and daughter Anns Rosie (I think) took BOB and G1, puppy Zac was Best terrier pup. Cathys Sula was Best NSC and G2. Karens Ceilidh was BOB, took G4 and Best terrier veteran.

Gundog - Heathers Skye was Best NSC and also took the group. Sues Jana won her class then BOB and G3. Katies Chewie was BOB. Sues Kendal and Logan both won their classes and BOB.

Utility - Linda and Rons Denzil won his class, BOB and G2, Hugo Best Utility puppy and RBPIS. Morags Logie was Best Import.

Toy - Sues Elwood, Rosa and Pansy each won their respective classes, Pansy took BOB and G1. Elwood was Best toy puppy and Gypsy was Best toy veteran. Jills Tiger was BOB and G2. Rias Jasper won his class, BOB and G3. Lindas Esmee was Best NSC and G4.

National Working Pastoral Breeds and a new Champion!

Malvern was the setting for last weekends National Working & Pastoral Breeds Champ show and a few of our members attended the show.

It was a day to remember for June as Benson was awarded his 3rd CC, thus making him a Champion, and on top of that he took BOB and another G2!

Elaine also had a great day, Milo won his Puppy Dog class plus Best Puppy and Zeta took another CC. The winners of Post Grad and Limit Bitch were also Kumormai breeding and I think it was Zetas litter sister who took the RBCC.

It was also well worth the long journey down for Carol, she had a win in Junior Dog, Limit Bitch (sorry, dont have names) plus the RBCC, and Chaos won her Puppy Bitch class and also Best Puppy.

Big congratulations to you all!

Catrine CC and LKA of Scotland

Catrine Canine Club Open show was held at Lanark on Saturday 20 November. The Agricultural Centre is a good venue with heaps of parking but space was scarce beside the three rings in the hall. At least all the bodies made the temperature rise as it was a pretty cold day!

Only a few club members made the journey there, Dundee Limited show was on the same day, so not many results. Sues Elwood won his graduate class and Ria won her JH class, which came with £5 prize money and a selection box - well worth it!

The following day, LKA of Scotland Open show was held in the Central Hall, Ingliston. This venue certainly doesnt lack space but it does lack heating! Space heaters were used but a lot of the heat must have escaped through the gaps in the walls . . . make sure you wear your thermals if youre attending a winter show there!

Again, not many club members present but a few wins to report. Katies Lara won her post grad class and then went on to take BOB. Sues Jana also won her class and BOB and Desmond won his graduate class. Erica and Niamh were over at the hound ring, which must have been the coldest part of the hall and whippets certainly needed their jackets! No wins for them but Niamhs Mia did take 3rd in a very large junior class.

Well done to everyone, hope youve all thawed out .

Lara wins her class . . .

. . . then takes on the open class winner for BOB
