It was great to have daughter Laura helping out at this show, plus junior handler Kerry Maidwell, who took over with Beattie and Ruby, allowing Liz to concentrate on the youngster Lacey, who still needs to settle to the showing scene......

Lacey took Best Puppy in Breed, and then went on to win the Pastoral Puppy Group under Bert Easdon (Yakee), plus a reserve in the AV Puppy Stakes - well done Lacey!
Beattie won the Post-Graduate class and also Best of Breed, much to the disgust of her mum Ruby, winner of the Open class - and then Laura was delighted to handle her favourite show dog to a nice 2nd in the Group, all the more so when we watched the Champion Pyrenean Mountain Dog which beat her go through to a worthy Best In Show!
It looks as if the team of Laura and Beattie is beginning to gain momentum!
