Mud and rain was the order of the day for this unlucky show, so we thought it unfortunate that this was Ebony's first introduction to the show scene!  Luckily she was not in the slightest put off by anything and thoroughly enjoyed her day out, only objecting when she was needed to wait her turn briefly on a bench...this is boring....I can't SEE anything, she told us, and at the first opportunity was back in the thick of things, meeting new friends and exploring all the exciting smells.

In the ring she managed to remember enough of her training to get by, and we were delighted to receive a VHC from judge Mrs Toni Teasdale in quite a strong Minor Puppy Class in which she was one of the youngest, and looking quite raw compared with some of the others.

Honey and Ellie took their turns in Post-Graduate and Limit classes respectively, both gaining reserve placings, before the long drive back home.
