Crufts

Ah well, Steve can use him for some skiing practise instead

He's probably just being stood free Spuds, those pics you see are of dogs pushed and pulled, most of them stand much nicer on a loose lead. She said, again

 

[MurphysMinder]

Named after Eric Morecambe, brilliant.

Jet is just beautiful, the happiest dog I've ever seen that wasn't a spaniel (and the main reason I'm saving my pennies for one!)

Oh, and he just bit the judge, nasty vicious breed!!

Oh god, him and the Boxer are going on the rampage, they've just eaten Eric!!

There used to be one at work, he was just lovely! Died quite young though, he had a problem with his spine I think. Not sure if it's a breed problem, or just bad luck?

 

[kirstyhen]

Ooooh, they mentioned Schutzhund!

 

[Spudlet]

ELMO! Put that judge DOWN!

 

[CorvusCorax]

Kirsty, I love you

 

[MurphysMinder]

Can't believe how complimentary the commentators are being about Elmo, what a pleasant change to last year.

 

[Spudlet]

Fox terrier seems to be wriggling a bit when the judge goes over him?

They're supposed to suffer from Bone Cancer I think. I fell in love with them last year at Crufts being benched next to them, and then met two absolutely fabulous ones at my friend's yard.
So pennies are being saved, research will be done and a FC will be our next addition! BUT it has to be the perfect one, bred to work, healthy etc etc. Or maybe another Springer...

 

[CorvusCorax]

Just tried again, keep getting a black screen with a green wiggly line, ARGH!!!

Probably a bit unbalanced after Elmo took it's back leg off! I call for a Mandatory GSD muzzling law at Crufts, perhaps just ban the lot of them!

 

[CorvusCorax]

Don't suppose Coxy is wearing shorts......

 

[Spudlet]

Well they have had to cut the feed CC, while they mop the floor and find a judge to replace the one Eric and Elmo have just eaten...

 

[RuthnMeg]

Arhhh, I've lost Crufts.tv connection. Typical

 

[kirstyhen]

That green squiggly line was the only bit of fake grass left unstained...

 

[Spudlet]

Don't suppose Coxy is wearing shorts......

No, he must be trying to conceal that wooden leg he has after those Al-say-shuns ate his real one...

 

[CorvusCorax]

And someone turned the lights off after the massacre

 

[MurphysMinder]

It seems to have gone on the online site, typical. Nope he's not in shorts, the natty suit again. He is handling him for the occasion, not like his normal style.

 

[Spudlet]

I just LOVE Jet the flat coat, he looks like he could go all day, and that tail!

 

[kirstyhen]

Oh god, the judge (replacement) sent them round again, Elmo got loose and jumped into the crowd, it's pure carnage... meanwhile the Flat Coat's tail is still wagging!

 

[CorvusCorax]

MM if he handles him like he handled Loretta in the group a few years back, he'll do great brought tears to my eyes....

 

[Annette4]

Joanne and Kaiser are local to me....I'm so chuffed they won, I see them quite a bit.

 

[kirstyhen]

Goodness, you'd think that Elmo would be full by now...

 

[MurphysMinder]

Yes I saw him with Loretta, fair dos to him.
The flatcoats got it.
PBGV reserve, and Elmo has just gone out of the ring on the end of a long lead, back to normal.

 

[Annette4]

Flat coat won!!!!

 

[Spudlet]

It's the flat coat!

 

[kirstyhen]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Gundog Mafia rejoice with me!

(Have to say, Elmo woz robbed, maybe... )
