WSSCSW Summer Rally 2012

We had a great day at the WSSCSW Summer Rally last weekend and were very pleased when six of our puppies turned up. It was the first time they'd met up since leaving us a couple of months ago - they're now 5 months old and they all still recognised each other and they had a great time rolling and tumbling with each other.

I think Megan was a bit worried that they were all here to stay and I'm sure I heard her breathe a sigh of relief when they went. Owain had a different outlook - they might be his daughters but he only sees some new "bits of totty".

All the puppies performed brilliantly - particularly in the Scurry - something I don't think any of them has done before but they all successfully brought back the dummy, and in fact Cherry Owen went on to win the puppy class with the fastest time.

They all did very well in the races with little Rosie showing a great turn of speed - our own Lily did well but was mostly interested in scrapping with all her sisters.

Nessa (Bessie) came all the way from Reading has grown into a beautiful puppy - and it was fabulous to see owner Lulu totally fearless amongst all these dogs - she wouldn't have been able to do that 6 months ago, now they're apparently inseparable.

On a personal note - many thanks to all the families who have taken on our puppies, you have done a fabulous job with them and hope you continue to keep in touch and possibly come to more club events.
