A Happy Day Out :o)))

Recently we “escaped” for the day …
… we went to a charity dog show …
The weather was chilly, but the show was great fun …
Truffle was wagging so much
… that his tail wouldn’t keep still for photos !
Here he is winning the Best 6 Legs class …
The knitted items are by GoY member Terry60 …
… she sent them to me all the way from Italy !
Truffle likes dressing up …
I would not dress up a dog which didn’t like the idea
… but Truffle loves it !
He gets so excited ! :o)))
Conker enjoyed his day, too.
He was in the Tricks class …
This photo below shows part of his “Supernanny”.
He won first place.
His tricks included pushing his pram.
He also used a toy vacuum cleaner ..
… and played his little piano :o)
We hope you all enjoy your weekend !

Love the hat and leg warmers,Truffle looks a right bobbydazzler and is clearly happy in his outfit,well done Truffle, lovely legs, even though there are only five in the pic, lol.
Conker`s obviously happy and smiling, well deserving of his title and proud to have another rosette, we know where to come if in need of a babysitter.
Lovely photo`s Terra and I`m glad you all had a happy day, heres hoping you have many more....
16 Jul, 2011
Thank you Sheila, Sixpence, Sheila, Paul, Annella and Lincslass...
These charity dog shows are always a good laugh, and for very good causes, and the dogs have great fun ...
Conker fetches the baby doll and puts it in the pram, and then brings me the potty .. trying not to "spill the contents" ..LOL.
16 Jul, 2011
Can't decide if that's a good hat for Truffle or not! It just makes me think he's off to the shower with his cap on ...
Conker's looking as handsome as ever ... congratulations on winning another rosette ... : o )))
16 Jul, 2011
Lol... Thanks Shirley ...
Truffle is keen to wear absolutely ANYTHING ! :o)
... and I'm thinking that baby has been sitting on the potty for a very long time ;o)
16 Jul, 2011

So lovely to get out and have some fun...all in a good cause too! The boys look so happy, they truly are a girl's best friend! Well done them on winning their classes! Hmmm, Truffle does put me in mind of Ena Sharples, with her hairnet! Ay up Pup!! ;0)

Hello Yorks and Kay ...
Pleased this made you smile ...
... a nice day out is a good tonic ... :o)
Thanks Libet ...
The show was in aid of village hall funds ..
Sometimes the shows are for animal charities ..
sometimes for "human" charities ..
Truffle thinks he looks very trendy in his hat ;o)
16 Jul, 2011

Thanks Amy ....
Yes, Truffle enjoyed his day, and Conker has been looking well lately and enjoying our days out .. :o) x
Hi Vabascum ...
I'm pleased you like the blog ... hugs delivered to Conker and Truffle. :o)
Thank you Sticki ...
Both dogs behaved very well in their classes... that's all I ask... the red rosettes for each first place were an added bonus ... and Truffle was especially pleased that he also won some little doggie treats...
... Truffle says "Food prizes are good" ... Lol.
16 Jul, 2011
im happy for you truffle glad you took your mum and dad with you to look after them lololol looks like and sounds like you all had a great day out , hope you all raised a lot of money for the charity :)))
how nice of your friend there brilliant tt
16 Jul, 2011
Thanks, Mark ...
Truffle took his Mum and his "uncle"... Lol..
16 Jul, 2011
a dog wouldn't wear anything it didn't want to in the same way Conker loves is tricks, as a young child we had a little 'heinz' and I used to dress her in dolls clothes and push her in the dolls pram, she would just wander off to my mum when she'd had enough ( which wasn't often she loved the attention...)
16 Jul, 2011
Hi Pam..
Yes, you're right there... my dogs will actually "elbow" each other to be the first one to try on any outfit.. hat or whatever... Lol...
Lovely for you to have such wonderful memories of your childhood dog :o)
16 Jul, 2011
TT I was searching for a word and Lincslass had it..Bobbydazzler!! He sure is. Not often he upstages dear Conker, but I think on this occasion he's the bees knees!
Well done both and you for your patience and ingenuity and Terry for the knitting (I could do with a hat like that lol!)
Lovely merry blog...may I wish you many more of them...and us!!
16 Jul, 2011
oopps truffle sorry, lol der me 2 +2 = 5 lol lol x x
16 Jul, 2011
Lol. Mark ;o)
Hi Tetrarch ... Thank you ...
Truffle is full of enthusiasm !
Terry60 did well, considering she only had a few measurements as a guide for the knitting ... to fit both myself and Truffle. He loves his bobble hat ;o)
16 Jul, 2011
glad you all enjoyed your day Terra and the lads look great, well done to both and love the knitwear lol, great pics, hugs all round ;o) x
16 Jul, 2011
Thanks Sandra ..

Truffle looks very handsome in his blue and white outfit - brought a big smile to my face to see him and gorgeous Conker. They deserve their prizes, bless them. So pleased you had a good, relaxing day out.
18 Jul, 2011
Thanks Gee ...
My dogs are happy and dog-tired today after another fun-packed charity dog show :o)
18 Jul, 2011
Millie & I have just returned from a vet trip (booster jabs and check up). Our lovely vet was very pleased with Millie's shape, weight (21kg) etc and now Millie is exhausted as we walked for an hour or so before arriving at the vets :)
Sounds like the boys deserve a restful day after all their hard work for charity :)
18 Jul, 2011
That's good to know Millie is fit and shapely, Gee ...
and after that walk, I'm sure you are fit and shapely too ... :o)
Yes... a restful day for the dogs ...
but Crocus budgie has been busy with his "pastry brush" toy ;o)
18 Jul, 2011
Fantastic, I was supposed to go to the BEDLINGTON FUN DAY which happens every year in Oxford, but we had to spend the money at the vets, and as little Leo was not up to scratch we abandoned it, so it was lovely to see your pictures. x
18 Jul, 2011
Thanks Patricia ..
I hope Leo is better now...
... such a worry when our pets are ill...
This summer I haven't been able to enter so many charity dog shows as last year, but certainly we are enjoying those we can attend ... x
18 Jul, 2011
