Scotland

Big thanks to Wendy, Scott and Karhu for having me, Neka & Inko to visit over the weekend. And also to Paula & Adam for parting with their Dink for a whole week so she could keep us all entertained. A fabulous time was had by all, and there are many photos (some better than others) and stories (ditto). For now, though, I'm still recovering and barely able to string a few words together, so here are Karhu, Neka and Inko happily sharing Karhu's custom-made window seat.




















And as for the show, it was a super day with lovely warm sunshine (not a word of a lie!) and great socialising. To top it off, Inko won another Best Puppy in Breed under judge Chris Chapman, with brother Tarkka placing just behind her in the Junior class. Karhu placed 3rd in Postgrad and Neka 4th in Open. Poor Neka is looking a bit like she's been dragged through a hedge at the moment, moulting in large rusty tufts, so that was definitely her last show for a long while.

Next week is Bath, and as that show is always known in the dog fraternity as mud-Bath, I've got my fingers crossed for decent weather. The last time I went, Keskiyo came 3rd in the puppy stakes in spite of being a bit on the damp, spiky side. He's going again this year with Maija, who is going for fun. And I'm hoping to meet up with lots of the Infindigo crew, including Kaija, who will having her big debut. How exciting!
