It’s always a good and busy day out at Crufts showing our dogs. As some of you know the weather was not kind. The logistics of getting three dogs and all the paraphernalia that goes with dog showing is difficult enough but when you have too walk three clean dogs from the car in the snow and grot from the car park to the halls…… you don’t end up with clean dogs.
it was great to see so many of our dog showing friends and a good number of owners/handlers from Europe. It was the European dogs that dominated the Lagotto results with the very successful “Orca” ,Kan Trace Very Cheeky Chic, being awarded best of breed and going on to win first place in the group competition.
What of our dogs? Ricco was entered in the Open Dog class having had so many first places in 2022 but was not placed. Cielo was entered in the junior bitch class having just missed staying in puppy by less than two weeks. Again, she was not placed. Probably being so young compared with the others in the class. Rosa was entered in Limit Bitch. She came away with Very Highly Commended, which is 5th place. We also entered her into the Good Citizen Bitch Class and she got a third place.
