I'm Neil from Leamington Spa, Warwickshire. My wife and I are proud owners of a rescue deerhound, Finn.
If you attended the Lure coursing day at Newbury in May you may remember Finn as he came second in the longjump.
Finn is approximately 6 years old. We have had him for twelve months having got him from the local Dogs Trust in Kenilworth. He attended this years Kenilworth Dog Trust open day and came away with three rosettes.
Finn is every bit a deerhound and he loves to meet up with other deerhounds ~ with any other breeds I'm afraid he can be a bit aloof.
We will be attending this years meeting at Lodge Park, Gloucestershire and hope to see many of Finn's friends there.

Hello and welcome in the forum Neil and Finn.

Best regards
Joerg and Yoki

Hi Neil. Small world, one of my head offices is in Cubbington and I was only there a couple of weeks ago. I live in Watford with Murphy a 5 yr old DH and a 4 yr old Border Terrier. Oh and hubby and kids too!

Welcome Neil and Finn. If you do make it to Lodge Park please do not forget your camera as that particular event causes us excessive glee across the pond!

Hi Neil and welcome from Tasmania

Hi everyone, thanks for the fantastic welcome. I'll try and get a photo of Finn on the site in the next few days, although he is on the Newbury funday photos with my wife and our friend Katie. He is relaxing after his longjump exertions! He is the one with the whiskers!

Hi Neil and welcome to the site from us here in Melbourne Australia.

Welcome to the group from Sarah in Cornwall with Dirk and Biddy. I am horrified to learn your deerhound had to be rescued, but glad he has found a good home! So what happens at Lodge Park??
