More Shows!

 

Well, the Marcasite team continues to have showing success.

Young Floyd and Leigh-Anne recently went to Leeds Championship Show and the Northumbrian Poodle Club shows.

At Leeds Floyd placed 1st in Puppy Dog and VHC in puppy Stakes.

At the Poodle Club Floyd placed 1st in Puppy dog and also got Best of Opposite Sex.

Floyd also had a lovely critique from the Judge at Leeds

 'Black puppy who was very collected on the move and really enjoyed his day. Masculine head with a good body, all round very well presented. Just needs time as young male standards do.' 

 What an amazing critique! Both Leigh-Anne, Jade (Floyd's groomer) and I are thrilled to bits with this critique. We'll even forgive the judge for not realising he is blue.

Meanwhile, Peggy and I did some local shows (please forgive her wonky hair. It rained. A lot!)

On Saturday we placed 3rd in Graduate Bitch at Wiveliscombe and District Open Show. 

And then yesterday we went to East Cornwall Hunt Pony Club Dog Show. Peggy got 1st in Best Pedigree, 3rd for Best Condition and Special for Best Groomed. We then went on to win Reserve Best in show!

All in all I am very much enjoying showing this seson. I still find it nerve wracking at times but I am learning so much and meeting some really lovely people. I spent my day at Wiveliscombe chatting to a lady with Hungarian Pulis and learning about how to groom the corded coat. Fascinating!
