Action!

The Brambledales have always been action dogs but sadly I was not an action photographer until I was given a digital camera in 2005! So the only action pictures I can find from the old days are these of Brett taken by a press photographer.

I am indebted to Eva- Maria Kramer and Carolin Kupper for permission to use some of the photos that they took during visits to Maes yr Haul

Brett (Ch Heathermead Handsome) competing in Working Trials for the first time,in 1970, when he was eight years old. Below he clears the long jump at the same event. (Sorry I got in the way!)

Brett's Great-Great-Great-Great-Great -Granddaughters,Brambledale Brianna (Nan, above ) and B.Briony (Nancy, below ) .

And some of Nan's daughters.................

The Brambledales also use their agility and ingenuity in all kinds of novel situations......the pictures below were taken en route to Scotland in July 2009.  They had no problem crossing the canal safely ........I loved the polite queue!  And a complicated style we had to negotiate was no barrier either......again, note the polite queue.
