This weekend was another fun packed one, as we attended Paignton and District Championship Dog Show on Sunday which is a show managed by our wonderful friend Chris Briggs from Briggsy's Grooming Salon in Barnstaple, North Devon.
This show is hands down my favourite of the season. It is held just an hour from home, in Exeter and is always run very professionally whilst maintaining a fun and friendly atmosphere.
Peggy and I had a fantastic day and we did incredibly well. Pegs worked so hard for me and was such a good girlie.
We placed 2nd in Postgraduate Bitch (the largest class in breed) and 3rd in Open Bitch.
This means we have now qualified for Crufts 3 times over!
We also saw some of our friends at the show- Jade who placed 1st in her class with Inca and Emily who has done ridiculously well with her poodles in their agility classes and qualified them for the finals!
At the end of the show Peggy got to have a little run around the exercise area, which of course she loved. It is so nice to go to a show that has a designated area in which dogs can be exercised safely. At home and in our regular life Peggy is rarely on a lead, so having the ability to let her off for some fun was very much appreciated.
We really did have a fantastic day! I'm only sad that I have to wait a whole year for the next one!
Massive thanks again to Chris Briggs, Mark Elliott and the rest of the committee for putting on this event. Your hard work is so very appreciated!
