Wow, what a weekend!!! Willow wins 2nd in AOC Open behind the Res CC winner! Ellie goes one better and wins 1st in a tough Junior class and is shortlisted in the last five for the bitch CC – specialist judge: Sally Ellison (Withiflor)

Great day with Ellie (Dykere Lavender Blue for Manchela) winning Junior and BIS under breed specialist judge Mrs Louise Wilding (Jayzander) – so delighted!!!!!

Sorting through some old pictures and I found this one of my beautiful Manchela Wild Cherry winning BPIB at Crufts in 2011. Four days after this show she came into season and then dropped her coat, had a litter when she was two years old and is now back in the show ring at four years old with avengance!

Lovely day at this show – Cherry winning 1st Open, BOB and Group 1, whilst the new kid on the block, Craig (Manchela Real Deal) winning 1st Puppy, BPIB and PG3 at his very first show under judge: Mr Lee Cox (Vanitonia). So pleased that he enjoyed his first outing – am quite excited about this young lad.
