Hi there,
my blog post of the last day of Crufts 2012 (Sunday 11th March) is finally here! I hope you enjoy reading it...
The Dog Activities stand...
This stand was great for learning more about the activities that you could take part in with your dog. There were lots of dogs on this stand who take part in these activities themselves and you could give them a nice cuddle!
I then visited the Police Dogs stand and spoke to one of the trainers. His dog was a lovely English Springer Spaniel so I had to take a photo!
In the Main Arena, the Staffordshire Bull Terrier Display Team performed some agility and as a special Crufts treat, Paul O'Grady entered the ring and instructed one of the Staffies around the course!
Agility is one of the most popular dog sports in the World so there are many great competitions held! I watched many different Agility competitions throughout the weekend and each one entertained me as much as the other!
This year I watched a new display about Dog Activities. A gorgeous Great Dane named Ruach performed in the ring to demonstrate Heelwork To Music alongside lots of different dogs and he was fantastic!
Not only was Heelwork To Music demonstrated but other sports were too!
The Bark & Read Foundation stall...
The Bark & Read Foundation is a new scheme to encourage young children to read by letting them read to specially trained dogs!
The gorgeous Ruach also performed a few demos throughout the four days of Crufts and we watched one of them on the Sunday!
After a fantastic four days, Crufts ended for the year! Highlights of each day were available to watch on More4 and the winner of the prestigious Best In Show award was Elizabeth, the Llasa Apso! The beautiful Newfoundland that I saw on Saturday 10th March won Reserve but well done to all the other dogs and handlers who took part throughout the show! I don't know about you but I can't wait until Crufts 2013, on the 7th-10th March! I hope you have found these two posts interesting and I'll write soon! Flo x
