Back to classes and a catch up

Classes start again tonight, looking forward to seeing everybody.

This blog has been a bit behind with news so here's a catch up of some events over the past few months.

Back in February we held an inter-club match. Iain Forbes kindly judged and gave BIM to Ria's Jasper and RBIM to Morag's Logie. BP was Jennifer Angus's Harvey, BV Isobel Morrison's Vince and Best Of The Rest Jenny Taylor's yorkie.

At Crufts in March both Elaine and June were to be seen on the famous green carpet of the main arena. June's Benson had won through to the final of the Kennel Gazette Junior Warrant winners of the year and Elaine's Zeta was present in the working group after she'd won Best of Breed.
