Liz and Laura went with friends Linda and Christine to see Mary Ray and Richard Curtis of "dog dancing" fame yesterday.

Held at the purpose-built MyPetStop venue just outside Leeds, the show was an action-packed three hours and was both educational and entertaining.  Mary and Richard gave their all, but naturally the real stars of the show were the dogs - four talented Border Collies, a laidback Lurcher, a spirited Sheltie, a very attractive young Border Collie x Poodle, a Chihuahua and a puppy Chihuahua X - and of course our personal favourite Disco the dancing Portuguese Water Dog

We had a lovely afternoon - and Jess and Mick had a nice quiet one!  Jess was not forgotten by any means and the MyPetStop shopping area  was raided for some suitable treats for her - and an early Christmas present of a squeaky Christmas tree toy for Roxy and Beattie!
