Cooper Does it Again!!!

Sunday saw us travel to Malvern for the Three Counties Champ Show, Trio has a great day being spoilt by the boys at home and didn't seem to bothered at not jumping into the car.

Thankfully not too early a start for us as neither breed was scheduled to be first in the ring, so a good relaxed drive for a change.  We arrived in good time to be greeted by our good friend Jan who had already finished with her breed (Field Spaniel), who had just been awarded the Reserve CC with Ianto.  So thrilled for her and this lovely boy.

We still had a long wait though as some of the judging was rather slow, and both breeds ended up in the ring at the same time.  I must have looked a bit odd trying to stack Maddie and look through the ring to see the girls with the tollers two rings down.

Maddie was entered in Open bitch and gained a very creditable 3rd to two champion girls, she then went into the Veteran Stakes and had a 4th in another strong mixed class.  Still can't believe that this lovely girls is a veteran, she certainly doesn't look or act it.

 

Tollers started as usual with the boys, Cooper in Post Grad, which he won!  He was then back in at the end of the dog judging for the challenge to gain his second Best Dog award at a champs show.  The girls then had there turn with Eve gaining a 3rd in Junior and a 2nd in Post Grad, showing well again with Eleanor.  Tasha then took Tilly into Open and gained a 2nd, glad to see that she finally has some coat on her!

Best dog and best bitch then came back in for the Best of Breed, again Cooper showed really well for Dawn and gained his 2nd Best of Breed at a champ show.  Not quite three years old yet, but maturing so well.  So very proud of this lovely boy and Dawn & Gerald for all of the hard work that they have put into him.
