July Bookends

It's October and autumn is well underway, so that means we're all in the mood for summer photos, right? Right?

At the start of the month, Fly spent some time with the pet lambs. Vera was curious.

 

Bella too.

 

The children were doing well.

Nose to nose.

Bella and Petal.

Cheeky Greta.

Dot.

Greta.

 

 

Towards the end of the month, Jess and Blue Belle went for a walk.

 

 

 

 

 

That's all I have for July - the Castlewellan Show was posted about at the time, and I was also very busy with silage season. Don't worry - I managed to take more photos in August!

Belfast Championship Dog Show 2024

After we'd had so much fun at the dog show last year, my aunt, her sister and I were all back for another dog-filled day. The first dogs we came across were the Borzois, awaiting their classes.

 

The spectators were ready.

 

Some very sweet Salukis.

Borzoi hugs.

 

This Komonodor was drawing a crowd.

It was a cold day and I came across a lot of dogs wearing coats to keep warm.

Outside, the agility was in full swing.

 

Several more rings were set up in the Logan Hall, and even more judging was taking place.

 

There were dogs everywhere you looked.

 

A class-winning Afghan Hound.

 

I met this lovely pair of spaniels.

 

I just walked around and kept my eye out for a photo oppertunity.

 

We managed to catch the first group judging of the day - the terriers.

 

The crowd was enthralled.

We returned to my aunt's house and the people's champion, Cousin Holly.

We all had a wonderful day. I got to stroke a lot of lovely dogs.
