Border Union 2009!!

At the weekend we made the journey done to Kelso for Border Union Championship show 2009! Logie, Gigha and i hitched a lift with Jenny, Ria and the gang in Jennys new van. The dogs all seemed quite comfy in there with plenty of space for all our gear.

This was to be our digs for the weekend. Grooming tables are handy things for cooking on and saving the drink from being knocked over!!

Logie bear does it again with another Res Best Male Import. This time he was beaten by a Bergamasco for best dog. However it made him the highest placed Eurasier there. His sister Piper won Junior Bitch with Tinkerbell 2nd.

Our Thanks to Mr T Mather who Judged him.

Euro Show 2009 Dublin!!!

Hello Ireland!

Bye bye Troon!

Troon ferry terminal.

Another weekend away on our travels heading for Dublin Euro Show 2009!

This was our first European show so i had mixed feelings about going. There seemed to be a different kind of atmosphere there,what with all the overseas exhibitors. There was no 'aye aye fit like the day?' But the chatterings of many different foreign languages. However our Irish friends made us very welcome.

We stayed near Ballymoney up in the North, so this was a great opportunity to see Ireland as we travelled south to Dublin. Its a magnificent country with breathtaking scenery.
