We had a brilliant day yesterday at Darlington Champ show.

Dalesman won Veteran Dog and Best Veteran in Breed.
Finnan won Minor Puppy Dog.
Orrin won Open bitch and her 8th CC.

The day was only marred by an horrendous 4 !/2 hour journey home due to an accident on the M1. We all, (including the dogs), slept the sleep of the dead last night.

Finnan winning Minor Puppy dog.

Orrin won Open bitch and her 8th CC.

Congratulations Sally on a Triple Win, well worth the journey.

That's excellent Sally. Pleased you got home eventually and make sure you celebrate tonight instead. Elise

Congratulations on your wins! I did laugh at your mud hems on your pants - I had those myself the other weekend! Of course I saved my cream suit until Sunday and that was the day it poured rain - Murphy's Law!!! LOL. Mel

Well done Sally, what a productive day, shame about the journey, least you are home safe and sound!

Well done Sally and Alan - are you going to Driffield?
Dan

Congratulations Sally. What a great day and worth the long drive home I'm sure

Congratulations to you both. I remember being very impressed by Finnan at the Hound show, such a sweet nature.

Thanks Dan, No, we are not going to Driffield (no CC's for Deerhounds). Its a long way to go for what is in effect an open show. Next stop is the Deerhound club limited show and then Midland Counties. We are not doing LKA either as I am due to have surgery on my ankle on 21 November so I will probably still be on crutches.
