We took all of the dogs to Aberystwyth Show on the bank holiday weekend and were delighted to be awarded Best of Breed in both breeds - Eve and Trio doing exceptionally well in their respective classes. The girls did well in the handling, we didn't stay till the end for the stakes classes as these would have been quite late in the day.
Off to the National the following weekend, a very early start due to the YKC stakes beginning at 8.30 am! It was a show with very mixed results for us, but that dog showing for you - win some, loose some. For the first time in ages Eve left the ring without anything!
However we were there to support two of Tilly's puppies making their showing debuts. Tegan (Seahaven Bewitched by Cedarlake) and Pippa (Seahaven Magic Spell) both qualifying for Crufts 2016 at their first show! Tegan with a 2nd and Pippa with a 3rd in minor puppy and then a 2nd in puppy! It was a lovely day seeing these two again, and they seemed to enjoy the show environment and especially the chance to have a romp together after they'd finished in the ring.
We fared slightly better in the Large Munsterlander ring! Trio (Seahaven Borrowed Heaven) was awarded Res in Limit Bitch in a really strong class. Tasha also had her entered in the handling where they were shortlisted from a good entry and came away again with a Reserve.
We also took the opportunity to have Trio's eyes tested in preparation for mating her last month (hopefully she comes into season as planned!) where she passed.
It was a lovely day catching up with some of the Seahaven family and friends, we look forward to seeing you all again soon.
