Began tonight at 7.00 p.m. on Channel 138 - More4.

Not as good as before as adverts popping up. But Harvey is in ads so that helps!!

On until Sunday.

Every year i say i'm not going to watch..and every year i do anyhow because i just love seeing all the dif breeds ...

Can't help but get hacked off when the breeders grab the little dogs by the tails and neck when they take them from the judges table.........UNNECESSARY. I'd love Scarlett, my poodle to be shown there...if they lifted her down like that she'd have their faces off lololol x

Haven't seen it Muffy since went off BBC. Son rang me to tell me it was on.
OH loves the agility and the ball race - can't think what it is called.

I used to do agility training with my old lady collie..sadly no longer with us..they absolutely LOVE it...wish there was one local to me where I could take my current Collie..it really forms such a bond between owner and dog

Fly ball is the ball race lol x

I should have been there yesterday. My sister and neice were taking me but on Monday I got a text from my neice saying that she had to have her horse Blue put to sleep. She had had him 21 years and he was 31 a beautiful grey hunter a big boy. He had the best owner possible and nothing was too good for him. Fortunately Blue was in a down position and was given an injection, he is buried in a beautiful field where he grazed. I did not expect her to go as I wouldn't have felt like it either had I lost one of my best friends. We will go next years God willing as I too like to look and talk to the dogs and owners. Elaine.

evening peeps. my grt aunty annie used to breed british bulldogs and she was a judge on crufts back in the 70's. the work that goes into getting the dogs prepared took hours, grooming, shampooing etc. reminds me of my teenage daughter and the time it takes her to have a shower lol.
