MIDLAND CAIRN TERRIER CAIRN DAY 2006
Or
“Daz Does the Double!”*
The Midland
Cairn Terrier Club held its annual Cairn Day on Sunday 24th September
at Hasland Village Hall, near Chesterfield. The day
started off with a trimming demonstration. Owners were shown how to
trim their Cairn for show or pet, the willing helpers were Brian Mears, Maud
Hawkes, Monica Ball, Dawn Inett and Alison Wragg. The Jennie
Fairweather delighted all present with an agility demonstration. The
weather turned fine and sunny so the agility was done in the park. |
Just look at all these
lovely puppies!!!! |

A
few “Clever Cairns” came forward to perform their tricks, amongst these was
Sammie who jumped through a hoop whilst Cracker showed how to leave a biscuit
alone till his master said ok. After
the popular lunch, the afternoon started with a Junior Handling class where
Monica Ball was the judge, six youngsters took part and the winner was Alex
Godfrey aged fifteen who handled Tycadno Hope and Glory. After the
lack of puppies at Championship shows recently it was heartening to see 12
youngsters in the Puppy Walk, Christine Soper was the judge and the puppy the
judge would most like to take home was Patricia Clarke’s Conundrum Sweeter
for me for Lentrick. Best Puppy in Match was Liz Longdin’s Wellingley
From Us To You and Best Adult & Best in Match, Brenda Shannon & Danny
Storr’s Brenndarcy Spellbinder. Best Loser was Alan, Linda & Amy
Firth & Gwen Jones’ Cairngold Bucks Fizz. |
In
recognition of her work for the Midland Club, a presentation of a bouquet of
flowers was made to retiring committee member Alison Wragg. Alan
Stephinson celebrated his recent 60th birthday by asking all
present to join him in a glass of wine and a piece of cake. Lovely! During the
day, Bob Gregory, Kennel Club Accredited Trainer took 20 students on a
Conformation and Movement Seminar and Hands on Assessment. All in all
the day was busy and very well attended. The hall at Hasland was full
which just goes to show that these Fun Days really are beneficial and needed
by the breed. Linda Firth |
