ranirottie Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 wish we could join in the camping but our caravan lives in Devon and I think it might fall apart if we were to tow it all the way here,then to Canine Capers,back here and then back to Devon. She is rather elderly now and things tend to go wrong and fall off with elderly caravans no matter how much you love them. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barb Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Just a note to say Canine Capers and the Oldies got a mention in the October assue of Dogs Today. It is in the letter page entitledCross Promotion. Hope it will entice a few more people to attend Barbara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura_E Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Just got back from the show with a very, very tired dog. Amy deserves a medal (and a holiday) for all her hard work. She done a fantastic job and stayed remarkably calm considering she didn't get to take a break all day (and had to do so much talking!). The judges also done a great job and were kept very busy with so many entrants to get round. Oldies Club sponsor dog Sal won Best in Show- which was very well deserved........AND Tess won best reserve. I was collecting the money for the classes so couldn't enter with her, but she went in with my friend Michelle, who done a great job at controlling her with the aid of sausages! Anyway, another huge congratulations to Amy. She done the Oldies Club proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawnie Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 We went back today and had a fab day - the weather wasn't as kind today but it stayed dry after a little shower this morning - my boy did my proud in a big way coming first in the Scamps heat dog over 18" and then getting Reserve Best In Show in the Scamps Final, he also took a rosette in every class entered bar one bringing home a 1st, two 2nds, a 3rd and two 4ths, and considering the judge was a man and he's very very nervous of men i was extremely proud of him. Can't wait till next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil_angel Posted September 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Thanks everyone. Couldnt have done it without the support of those who came to help out of the day. Big thank you to Cher and Hayley from Crossroad Kennels for being our judges. Some classes were massive with around 40 dogs so definately not an easy task. Also a big thanks to Laura for helping in the ring, Claire who ran a tennis ball lottery and with the raffle, also to all those who helped out with the skills classes, those who brought their oldies along for the oldies club dog parade, all the Crossbreed & Mongrel Club members who helped and also those who came along to support the day. Its been a bit of a whirl but I was thrilled for Oldies Club 18 year old sponsor dog Sal getting Best in Show and Tess in reserve I left the campsite about 10.30 this morning as had a long drive home. Once I got home unfortunately my thumping head turned into a migraine so Ive been in bed and unfortunately havent totted up the total count raised for Oldies Club yet but judging by the amount in the bucket its going to be a fab total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranirottie Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 we had a lovely time and I enjoyed doing the judging. Hayley and I didn't deliberately pick Oldies Club dogs to win,we just thought that they were the best. Some of the classes were HUGE,bigger than I have judged before,so it was hard to pick out just 6 dogs as there were some fantastic dogs there. Amy did a marvellous job and was like a busy little little bee buzzing from place to place with so much energy.In fact I think everybody did a great job,I hope a good amount was raised.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
