24 Jan Blenheim Agility Show results
Blenheim November Agility Champ Show
Another very busy but very successful show for us on and off the courses with a lot of very good results from club members which I will get into soon.
Thanks again to every one who helped us in any way over the weekend every bit helps us so much to make it easier for us to run our dogs and run the show as well.
This was our major show for the year and with 3 x agility 2x jumpers Ad and ADX all run in one weekend it is a lot of classes to get though.
We are the only club in NZ to run this many events over 2 days we do this to attract people from away to travel to our show but of course it means a lot of work for us but once again I think we did very well so pat on the back everyone.
I would also like to thank our sponsors Sheryl and Ed for donating the Yealands wine for the judges and 1st place getters and also Orijen Dog food for their on going support over the last few years.
Also the Vet centre and Christine from Picton Veterinary for supplying some product for our raffle.
