Leeds championship show

Thankyou to Judge Sandra Marshall who was judging Bracco Italiano at last weekends show.  We took two of our own dogs with us and handled also the brother. 

Silvestre Golden Dragon was 3rd place and this is a crufts qualifying place.  I was very proud of him.
Silvestre Sword of Destiny owned by Joshua was 3rd place which is a crufts qualifying place.  Both brother and sister did very well.   The ground was a little uneven and obvious cow pats on the floor which had dried which made my dogs want to run head down and they were little uneasy smelling the cattle which was previously on the field.  Not sure I would choose this venue again but Ive not had this problem before.  Three times I had too top the dogs rolling in a dried piece. ! 

Im having a break for a couple of months from championship shows now as we have puppies at that age which needs my constant attention.   I do have two very local open shows coming up but Im five mins from the home and I have arranged for someone to be with pups whilst I go.   Hopefully I can show Nancy in October.
