 Crufts selection successes
We're delighted with the news that yet again, two club members have been selected to go to Crufts as part of the NI Inter-Regional Obedience team - a team of only 6 handlers and their dogs. Alison and Zara will be going to Crufts for the second year running, this time as the Class B team. Accompanying them for the first time, will be Mary and Ellie for the Novice partnership.
Many congratulations and we wish them the very best of luck in March.

 Down District DTC Obedience and Agility Show Despite the dire weather forecast for Saturday, someone was watching out for us at our own show in Dundrum. We escaped with only a few showers and even enjoyed some sunshine. Club members did exceptionally well in the Obedience classes with Jillian winning both Class B and Class C with Cappagh and Bella respectively, a wonderful achievement. Lynda and Mica had a great round, winning their final Class A and worthy of a mention are Brenda and Megan who were the highest placed in Pre-Beginners. Congratulations also to Miriam and Brittany, a member prior to her move to England, who won Beginners.
As for the Agility, we were fortunate in having Lee Gibson and Maynard Rea as our judges.Challenging courses were set by both, especially the grade 6-7 Agility which everybody enjoyed tackling but few, if any, were entirely successful. Our only winners of the day were Audrey and Molly who won the Medium Grade 4-7 Jumping making Molly up to a Grade 7 dog.
Well done to everyone

 Fingal Agility Show
Fingal Agility Show is always one of the best run shows of the season and this year was no exception. We were envious of the wonderful new equipment, the PA system which kept everything running smoothly and of course, Jorgan Sundwell the Swedish judge. He had set european style courses which were challenging but great to run. The club members who made the trip down to Fingal picked up a handful of places but only Mary and Ellie managed a win. They won the Small grade 6-7 agility.
Well done
