Rat-catching relay race

Loads of really great prizes - many with ginger or local-produce theme

There are special prizes for the best ginger dog and the best ginger handler - so bring along your dogs and join us

Oh we went to this last year and had a fab time and Noobs won the sausage catching

Too far for us.....but best wishes for the day xxxx

hmm....it'll be over an hours drive but I do love a ginger!

may be tempted with my crew - the ginger one probably won't want to join in though!

i have been to one of these, dogs are in training for the sausage catching as we speak. So long as pedigrees are aloud.

Date on the calender now

Shame we're so far, sounds like a great day. Although Tilly's more strawberry blonde than ginger!

Well I have a ginger and once at a handling match the judge thought she was a puppy Irish. She hasn't grown any more so maybe I can get her in the best ginger class, she is only about 14" at the withers so hopefully she won't get lost in the legs of the other dogs.

all dogs are welcome!

I think the sausage catching is the toughest contest, but that young Malamute was absolutely determined to win last year!!! (well done Noobs)

Did you spend your voucher at the Marina?

We just want loads of dogs to come along and enjoy the day!

I am shamelessly bumping this thread because with less than 8 weeks to go, anyone thinking of coming really needs to start putting in some serious sausage-catching practice!

This year, we have rosettes to 6th place, so we want to see some amazing catches from half way accross the field.

We have been promised a lovely sack of local spuds for the winner of the potato race too, so start working on that heelwork (or experimenting with the stickiest styling products you can find for your hair!)

Most importantly of all - remember to bring your best smile because you will be taking the best dog home with you, whatever happens
