The "Caley"

Yesterday saw a handful of Spey Valley members heading south to Edinburgh for the Caledonian Canine Society's Open Show, which is held in the Lowland Hall at Ingliston. There seemed to be a lack of northern exhibitors at the show but perhaps the possibility of bad weather at this time of year deterred some or it could be that this isn't the cheapest of shows to enter and rosettes are thin on the ground!

Results are also thin on the ground, most members' dogs were placed but I think only two managed a red rosette. Morag's Logie won his class, making him Best Import, and Joanne's Walter was also first in his class.

There was success in the Junior Handling classes. After winning their respective age group classes, Caitlin beat brother Glenn to take Best Junior Handler. Both of them have now qualified for SKC, Richmond and Crufts 2010.

Well done everyone!

There aren't many photos but a few follow.
