Last displays and the long drive home.






The Silver Team's displays yesterday went well and well done to the whole team, your applause were well deserved.

Jaime met two more celebrity's after the last performance. The winner of the Underdog Show, Sven and his owner Kevin Sacre (who is apparently mostly famous for being in Hollyoaks). We were pleased to see Sven! We thought he was the only dog we had seen during the whole time at Crufts we would like to take home. The members of the Silver team were presented their participants certificates by Kevin.


As we left the exhibitors exit in Hall 1 at the NEC for the last time we handed in our tickets to a large steward who took at double take at us as we and the dogs passed through the door, two or three paces out of the door we hear the phrase which has rung in our ears the last four days... "Oi Mate! What type o' dogs are those?", together we gave him a quick but polite response and headed for the car park. Stopping only to allow the dogs to pee and have a quick blast around a field.

Well as I type this its all over and done with, we made it home in about three and a half hours. We're home from Crufts and we're all still recovering. The dogs are a lot more subdued that normal and are making the most of there new beds.
A BIG thank you to everyone who helped in everyway getting our own mutts to Crufts. We hope it lets some people see the sort of dogs cross breeds can be and how well they can turn out.
