Activities

Scentwork UK, 8 December 2024
Shirley Buchanan and May, Fleetpaw First Lady, have had a successful weekend as May passed her Scentwork UK Level 3, having achieved 80 points. Shirley said, ‘Have been unable to do much at all with the dogs and this was a last minute decision to attempt out first level 3 Scentwork UK Trial with May, and I was amazed that we got a qualifying score, she struggled with the outdoor searches but was so proud of her managing to find 6 out of 8 hides, the 2 we missed were both outdoors but considering we haven’t really done any training she did me proud, well done May

Forfarian Open Bitch Stakes
Judge: Frank Kane
3 Bain’s Crimblescurl Time To Tango At Wenichones excellent Curly bitch in super coat and going well at both ends. She is feminine but has enough bone and substance. Could be a little stronger in muzzle but she is a high quality example of the breed
