day 1 crufts

Wow- what a first day

We had a leisurely start compared to trade friends who at to be at the NEC at 7am this morning but we met some fantastic people, made some great sales and met dogs i’d never even heard of.  I could tell it was going to be a good day when the first person i met in the entrance to the NEC came rushing up after he spotted my Dicky Bag desperate to know where he could get one.  He’d promised is Aunt an pink flower bag and wasn’t about to disappoint her.

Next I learnt that my friend Olivia who’s Brindle Great Dane had qualified for Crufts had got a 3rd place was a fantastic achievement for them both.

We met some old friends like, Tina from SSAFA, who was proudly sporting her large Camo bag and made some new ones like Nicola at the Cinnamon Trust and the dog wardens on the NDWA stand.

I’m enjoying my rest back at the hotel but can’t wait to see what tomorrow may bring.
