Ah this is the little Beagle that I really liked when you posted her before.

I obviously have great taste!

Many congratulations, you must be over the moon!

You do SB i'm sure Thank you

She did really well,was a strange day today,she did great yesterday and in her first class today but the tannoy spooked her in the Best of breed ring at P'boro ,it was more than loud and another Beagle took a dislike to her & was barking and lunging at her which spooked her even more,I'm surprised he wasn't dismissed from the ring as he was 'at it' all day with her & others.She was the youngest and most inexperienced both days and was not a happy bunny after what happened in the breed ring today so i decided to withdraw her from the Group afterwards as i want her to continue enjoying it,was a tough call as she stood a good chance but i was thinking long term for her,it's not just about winning but her enjoying it too so we cut our loses and went home earlier than planned. All in all a good result though

Very well done, she is beautiful...I also think you did the right thing by withdrawing, things that spook them whilst they're so young can have an impact on them.

I'm suprised the other exhibitor wasn't spoken to, that really isn't on

Thank you Sheree,The judge was a very nice lady so she may have had a word with them i'm not sure,i was too busy to notice trying to deal with Bea and dying of embarrassment ,she's a very strong willed puppy and had decided she'd had enough by then and i couldn't do anything with her My OH said that from where he was sitting it wasn't clear what was spooking her and it had looked like she unsettled the dog.I was very nervous so didnt take in much around me.
Oh well,aside from that she loved eating sausages and cheese two days on the trot and came home yesterday with lots of new toys and a new bed I am looking forward to seeing her critique,will be interesting
