We have an entry of 45 Dandies for our judge to cast his eye over so there will be plenty of dogs to look at, there will be the usual Tombola stall to try your luck on and food will be served throughout the day. We look forward to seeing you there.
Sadly I have to report the death of George I Johnston ( Sykemoor ) who died on Tuesday 14th July. I had known George and his late wife Cynthia for many years, George was a gentleman, one of the old school, he had a great knowledge and understanding of the breed which he had owned along with his father since WW2, a lot of his learning came from their association with the Jardine family and the Waterbeck Dandies.One of George's most famous dogs was Ch Gladsmuir Gay Godess, whelped in 1952 bred by FL LT and Mrs Peter Townshend she won three CC's from 1954 to 1956. George's other great love was Basset Hounds though I will leave that part of his life to others more qualified than me to comment on.
