Lacey and Beattie enjoyed their little mini-holiday trip to Leominster, with an overnight stay at a dog-friendly Days Inn, and meeting friends old and new both human and doggy

Spirits were never dampened despite the ever-present threat of rain, and the show had its usual pleasant garden party atmosphere

Although unplaced in her Puppy class, Lacey picked up magnificent rosettes for her two VHC places in Novice and Debutant Bitch - and Beattie took third in Graduate under judge of the day Mr Graham Atkins (Labooshar)

We also did well in the raffle - for a change! - winning four prizes including a rather nice bracelet - immediately claimed by Laura!
