My daughter and two college friends are leaving this Thursday for 2 weeks in England & Scotland. Can we say just a wee bit excited?! Is there anyplace online for a listing of dog shows there that I can pass along to them??? TIA

Have you looked at the Our Dogs site, show calendar?
It is fairly easy for us not so familiar with the shows there to navigate. East of England should be upcoming.

Bon voyage!

Tks Charlotte - I'll pass it along to the girls! They know where they're going to be and if the timing works, can plan from there.

If they have a chance to attend the Gundog Club show which is August 7th, it is amazing. I was there two summers ago and actually showed a Clumber Spaniel.
It is an outdoor show ,benched area in the adjacent buildings-beautiful show site with the Malvern Hills in the distance.
Here is the link to the judging schedule which is on Fossedata uk for other info as well.

We also went to the CLA Game Fair which has breed displays, field events, terrier tent and so on. It was Fabulous as there were also retriever trials with teams from all over Europe!! This year it is at Ragley Hall in Warwickshire and certainly a once in a lifetime event. Tons of great things to purchase for dogs/people. I met two yellow labs there and when I asked who they came from, was told they were Sandyland dogs!!

Am envious of their travels and hope they enjoy their time.

Tks Susan - they only have 2 weeks - these shows/events sound fabulous!
