Blatantly inspired by Facebook postings :p just wanted to say that if anyone is at Badminton on XC day do come up and say hi if you see the three mus-ka-greyhounds, I think they will be quite distinctive and easy to spot :D

Bearing in mind, of course, that my mum/sister/niece will realise that I have finally lost it if you come up to me and say 'Hi Gazehound:D:D'
 
I might do Burghley as well - depends whether I can blag mum/sister into paying for me to get in there too, they are paying for me at Badminton :rolleyes:
 
KeepersCottage - I love munsterlanders, will keep my eye out for you :)

AshtheArab - any more clues than a terrier? :p I have been out of touch on here lately, I will search for pics :)

Kitsune - Sunday this year :eek: to fit in with the TV schedules....
 
I will be there, with my sister but minus Henry:D

Well good heavens, how on earth am I meant to recognise you then :confused::p:D:D

Kitsune, I took my first rescue greyhound to Badminton a few days after I got her, she was definitely not used to crowds or horses but she was fine and enjoyed herself no end :)
 
A very good point CC, I take it for granted sometimes that he's the same kettle of fish as my jacks, and of course thats not always the case!
 
No worries, was feeling like a bit of a bitch, was PM material really, I do beg your pardon, when a little dog is doing it's nut, is one thing, when it is a breed like a GSD, if he is leaping about and squealing and being an over-exciteable git and hard to hold, people tend to think the worst.

I could be completely wrong and he could be a pussycat about the whole thing!

And sorry Gazey, I do have a terrible knack for taking threads off the rails, ignore me!!!
 
I'm going!!!
I am not taking a pooch though... I dont think they would endure the journey or that the little sod would last the day without starting a scrap and making a scene!

I will be with a bearded bald very very bored looking bloke!!

I will end up writing notes of who to look out for and approach random people....
 
I'm hoping to go with the two spangles (cos that will really narrow down who I may be!!)

Apologies too Gazey, but Kitty I have to agree with CC here, yes Vinny may be fine, but he may also be very stressed at leaving his owners and would probably be far better spending time with you in a quiet environment imho.
And I am very envious of you all going to Badminton :(
 
Gazehound, This is Bob, although he is looking particulary cute here.....not sure whether it is a true representation of him!!

And yes, the other thing I thought was that V is probably going to test me on the first couple of weeks and the best place isnt probably badders, lol with him draggin me into the water fence...!!

Its going to be a good one lets hope the sun shines!
