It was quite a change to attend a show purely as a spectator, but Liz still found plenty to do!

The high spot was handling the McErlane's Blake in the Post-Graduate dog class, which he won, under judge Mrs Janet Steel - well done Blake! 

The Club had organised eye testing with Professor Bedford, and Ruby as a veteran was eligible for a free eye test, something we decided to take advantage of.  She enjoyed all the socialising and entertainment, and took an unofficial "gold star" for her exemplary behaviour for the testing, being her usual obliging self for the eye drops and other indignities....and we are glad to report her eyes were reported as excellent for her age

We also brought back from the show an exciting new dog accessory in the form of a treadmill, thanks Alan!  It is equally suitable for human use so we should all be super-fit in the New Year (we hope!!)
