a couple of wire muzzles were left behind on Sunday if anyone has picked them up can you let me know please
 
Best wishes to Ken :huggles: Thinking of you and the family and wishing him a speedy recovery.

Thanks to all those who helped out, lots of handslips for the newcomers and was pleased to see they all took to chasing well :thumbsup:

Jade and Gemma were certainly impressive lurchers for their first time running a bend and they definately enjoyed themselves!

Jack and Jenny's race was fab, both running neck and neck with no clear winner.

Got to say I'm chuffed with how the kids are coming along, they're really loving the bends :D

Best of luck to all the North West dogs this weekend :luck:

I think we're sticking with the 1:30pm start Fiona with the night's drawing in so early now. :thumbsup:
 
Racing still on for this Sunday, the club will have a raffle again.

Also we'll be holding a Christmas handicap on Sunday 19th December at 1.30pm like we did last year with hampers full of goodies for the winners. No set weight classes but dogs handicapped with others of similar weight/ability & a scratch race. Open to non members. I've also had enquiries from someone with Huskies, so we could maybe have a 'fun run' for other breeds if anyone is interested.
