Lakeland Country Fair

Walked on 16/08/2009

Connie and Dougal were on a roll after yesterday’s 2nd place so we went to Torver for the Lakeland Country Fair, a much bigger show than the Rusland one with many more people – and dogs – there, with lots competing in the Novelty Dog Show. There were 6 classes to compete for today.

15.08.09-126

In the show ring, all sorts and sizes of dogs were there today.

Lots of tense moments.

Today's prize - second in the 'Dog the Judge would most like to take home!' competition....no chance of that, even if he was first! p.s even Casper had a go at the 'Most Obedient Dog' competition. He was perfect for this as is he is really obedient. The competition was for him to wait at one side of the ring until he was called then run over and sit on a marker. 10 out of 10 to him for doing it so well, it was a faultless performance...but no prize for him today.

Casper lines up for the obedience test...before I had to step in and do it with him. It seems our latest article in Lancashire Life about Angus caused a few tears to be shed, here is the letters page from the latest edition...
