We've had such a great day today at Ulverston and north lonsdale shown running the Fun Dog Show.

We had a fantastic entry of over 80 dogs making some very tough decisions for our judge Judith Black.

Ultimately the top awards were ...
Best in Show was awarded to Piper the Flat Coated Retriever,
Reserve Best in Show was Wren the Sprocker,
Best Puppy was Ember the Irish Doodle, and
Best Veteran was Rosie the Terrier.

We were treated to a fantastic selection of dogs of all shapes and sizes, not just showing off their good looks but also their talents too in the Best Paw-shake, Waggiest Tails and some very impressive Best Tricks!
It was also wonderful to see so many children enjoying their day with their dogs - special congratulations to our two top junior handlers Blossom with Poppy the Jack Russell Terrier and Wilfred with Margo the Dachshund.

Special thanks to our judge Judith and Steward Sally for their help.
Until next year!!
