In Tervueren Basil had a third in PD and Bruine a VHC in PGDog.

In Groenendael I was very proud of Brittanys' Scarlett who showed herself off beautifully to a 2nd in PB.

Bonvivant Kallisto (aka Rusty) won the ABC Jumping on Friday and I was lucky enough just to walk in to see the presentation on Crufts TV on my computer !!! Well Done David !

It was nice to see foreign friends again at Crufts, it is just such a shame that we don't get much time to talk---no sooner are we there we are under starters orders. Thanks to those people who kindly plied me with coffee as I didn't get chance to stop all day. It has to be one of the hardest shows to exhibit at and the most tiring for both dogs and people.
