Welcome to the Dog Blog

We are starting this Blog initially to document our dogs trip to Crufts 2009 at Birmingham NEC 5th - 8th March. If popular we'll continue with dog related subject matter in the future.


Loki is now three years old an RSPCA rescue we found him when he was a year old. He was our first dog and we worked hard to make him, well mannered and behaved, while teaching him some excellent tricks along the way. In his first year with us we worked him through the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme to Gold Award. Loki will be taking part in displays with the Kennel Club Good Citizen Silver Display Team on the 6th and 8th of March (3 displays each day).

Duffy is our puppy we've had him since June 2008, initially we were just going to foster him as an RSPCA rescue for a couple of weeks but he settled into our house so well we could not let him go. He is ever the energetic little character and like Loki he's also passed his Gold Award for the Good Citizen Scheme. Most of the time Duffy's attention is focused on Loki, jumping on him, resting with him, or his favourite game, trying to eat his legs, because of this he has been more of a challenge to train but we were still able to get him to Gold Award level within 6 months of bringing him home. Duffy is taking part in the Kennel Club Good Citizen Bronze Display on the 5th and 7th of March (3 displays each day).

If your going to Crufts this year, please come by the displays and see the boys at work, or you may even see us wandering the halls.
