Today we stewarded for Sheringham Premier open show and got to meet lots of different breed of dogs. Shows are in the decline and they are desperate for people to go and help in the UK. If we do not these show societies will go and that will mean no more shows. We can not just take the glory of showing and doing well with our dogs, we have to lend a hand. Im happy to help anyone with advise on stewarding as is Darryl. We had the lovely company today of Lisa Jennings who had never stewarding.
Because we stewarded for a different ring and judges, we could show our own dogs in the other rings when the time came. I showed Brandi who won first puppy. Darryl then showed her in the challenge and she won Best of breed, Best Puppy in breed and Group 3. Ripley her mum was 1st in Open and RBOB. But she is having a phantom pregnancy which the judge picked up on and said if she didn't have a loose underline she would have won. We knew this before we went to the show but I said let's give the judge an entry as I do not mind if my dog doesn't get anything. But she still took RBOB. So a success show. I have actually done my stewarding numbers now to go forward for grand fathering, but I shall continue to help at shows locally. As I said above unless we help we will loose these shows.
