thanks for the lovely photo you put up of me and Loki. Does anyone have any others as my mum didnt manage to take any of me in the ring and i'd love at least one of us 'doing our thing' :)

Done.....Picture of you and dog on www.scottishmunsters.net Enjoy Mo -- Post From My iPhone

Hi munster lucy, the kids did great as did the pooches.

Erin and ace won the heelwork to music freestyle and got 3rd in the htm. they had a great round in the obedience and a lovely round in the agility with just a pole down. Erin and the lovely paws won the handling and got on tv doing so. nothing in the breed this year but to be honest we werent expecting anything there this year. now paws is hopefully away to take time out to have her and our first litter with our new affix. she is in season now so will be visiting a handsome gent soon. erin and jason very excited about the pups to be. J also had a great crufts getting 4th with wee buzz in grooming and a happy round in agility with boy and dog very chuffed with eachother.

Prefer a picture of my dogs - Mo thought you promised to make me look young.

Seen at Crufts  Thanks Ian and Sue for taking pictures for us at Crufts.....they have turned out excellently

Maggie would like to say a big thankyou to all her well wishers on her 12 birthday and would like to wish Erin happy birthday too as her birthday is exactly the same as Maggies to the year!! A lot of puppy people ask when their munster puppy will lose their puppy madness well Maggie is a joy to live with now she loves all the other dogs (relatives) in the house and lies on her back and plays with Poppy (brave Maggie) So I would say at around 11years???!!!!!

Happy birthday to Mum Maggie who was 12 today, from yer daughters Skye and Spring.

Finally got round to putting Ellie in for her Bronze test tonight and she passed no problems I am really proud of her.

Ruby trainer is Johnny Wilkinson. Whee we will be alright then I thought it might be a good trainer?! Mo -- Post From My iPhone

Its just as well that Ruby can't play this weekend as she looks as if she could fly up an down the wing with the ball....

Skye and Spring have been practising the line out and scrum

 

 

Ruby challenging up the wing - her trainer is Johnny Wilkinson. !!  though she is unable to play this weekend as she has a prior booking along with her mum in Birmingham.  Good luck to all fellow competitors travel safely and look forward to seeing you all down there. 

13th March @17.00 Murrayfield Scotland. V. England 14th March. @ 9.00 NEC Crufts. Watch this space for Results and loads of photos (hopefully) Mo -- Post From My iPhone

Skye and Spring have been practising and are ready for their first caps this weekend...against the English but they have not forgetten about their pals who will be strutting their stuff in Birmingham and want to wish them all good luck.

Linda, so sorry to hear about Seska hope she's ok.

Also so sorry to hear about Ghillie. Fingers crossed for a full recovery. 

Just back from Buckie......staying again in Lossiemouth..posh hotel  with two dogs who had
rolled in foxs shit?!
this is Sukie chasing "diving " birds?

So sorry to hear that Ghillie hasn't been well again. It is so upsetting when there isn't much that you can do to help them. Bruce (my ex) was telling me yesterday that his 2 munsters were at the vets with sickness and diarrohea. Funnily enough his English Springer was fine. They eat the same food, are walked in the same place at the time, so what causes it? Is it something to watch out for in breeding? Or is it just one of those things?

Lindsey  that is awful  he was looking so well the other day at Mugdock I hope he is on the mend. Poor wee man  I am sure he will make a full recovery......hope to see you at Crufts if you decide to come..

Mo

Really sorry to hear about Ghillie, fingers crossed he is on the mend and will be back to his old self soon .Its a shame he cant come to crufts this year but he will have lots of years to shine on the green carpet, he is just saving himself. give him a cuddle from us and a lick from Paws and the gang.

 

Have been meaning to post to say how much we enjoyed the munster meet at Mugdock. Beautiful day, and great company; it is so nice to catch up with everybody while the show season is in abeyance.

Sad news is that Ghillie won't be at Crufts. After he was looking so great and so fit a couple of weeks ago, he has had a really severe reoccurence of his colitis and spent all day yesterday at the vets on a drip and unlike previous occasions where he hasn't been particularly poorly, this time he was really ill, vomitting, refusing food, bleeding etc. We have no idea what triggered it, but he is such a dreadful scavenger that it could have been anything. So thats us crossed out of the catalogue for Crufts. The main thing is that he has responded well to treatment...so far and despite the dramatic weight loss, is back to his usual bonkers self  and begging for food every two minutes after not eating for 3 days. It will be a while before he is back on a proper diet again.

Haven't decided whether to go down to Crufts just for the visit without Ghillie, will decide next week.

So sorry to hear about Seska, what a terrible thing to happen, you must have been so disappointed Linda. Still, at least she is OK.

So might see you all at Crufts; if not, lots of Luck and have a great time everybody.

Lindsey.
