Turriff Open Show

After a dry, and at times sunny, Highland show, it was all change the following day at Turriff with rain predominating later in the day. Some judging took place under cover but much of it took place outside with some of the toy and utility groups getting quite a soaking!

It was difficult to keep track of all that was going on so please let me know of your wins if Ive misssed any.

Hound - Erica and Dougs Charlotte won her class but was beaten to BOB by Twiglet who went on to take Group 3. Linda and Rons Freda won her class and BOB.

Terrier - Caitlins Solo was BOB and G2.

Utility - Logie was Best Import Register.

Working - Donnas River won his class and I think Joannes Walter won his with River taking BOB. Johns Harvey won his class and Best AVNSC.

Gundog - Sues Kupah was 1st in his class and BOB.

Pastoral - Jennys Sadie took BOB and G3. Katrinas Marty was 1st in his class as was Leo who went on to take BOB and G4.

Toy - Rias Jasper was 1st in his class. Jills Tiger won his class and G2 (?). Elizabeths Malibu took Best AVNSC, not too sure if she took a group placing. Sues Rosa, Desmond and Pansy each won their classes with Pansy taking BOB then winning the toy group for the second day running and topping it off with Best Opposite Sex in Show. Elwood took Puppy Group 2.

Well done everybody!

Tayside Lochee District Canine Club Open Show

The venue for this show is Carnoustie Leisure Centre, situated right beside the beach, and with the sun shining all day long on Saturday (14th), you couldnt have asked for a better setting for a show. We wont think about previous shows where it rained and a howling gale was coming off the sea!

Four rings were held outside, quite some distance from the two held inside the hall, which meant for a bit of a split. It wasnt easy to keep track of what went on but I have some results, let me know of any Ive missed. Sorry, no photos.

Linda and Rons Esmee was Best AVNSC toy, Freda was BOB and Best Hound Special Minor Puppy.

Elizabeths Belle beat all her kennel mates to take BOB.

Sues Desmond won his Graduate class and Jana won her Post Grad class.

Well done all!
