Crufts 2013 and Bodiam walk on 23 months birthday.

A rather delayed update but been waiting for some nice photo opportunities. Really wanted to show off our amazing day at Crufts when Mika got a first placing in the biggest class of the day, post grad dog with 13 entries, I told his family,,Jackie and Dave, not to waste money and time to travel all the way to Birmingham, as he would get thrown out as he is just out of junior and still need to mature compared to the "big boys"! I was very pleased to be proved wrong and a bit sad for Jackie and Dave to see him win at Crufts!
Lina did well and got a 3rd in Post grad bitch an a second in good citizen class. I was completely thrilled :-) and both qualified for crufts 2014!
Today is the puppies 23 months birthday and by chance we had arranged a meet at Bodiam Castle. amazingly Jo said she would come all the way so sparebed was made up and Jo pitched up with Laatu and Tarkka Saturday night. The boys behave impeccably, bossed about by Lina, who kept a firm eye on them.
Today we met up with Nadine and Luka, Sarah, Gordon and Gretel, Lottie and Chase, Mary, Ilo and Tykky. We had a stunning walk in glorious sunshine, finished with tea and lots of fuss for dogs who had many admirers.
