    As the rain pelted on our window pain on Sunday morning, it could not dampen our spirits, or our intention to be at the Sporting Whippet Club NI 3rd Dog Show and Race day of the year. The Dog Chorus rang out loud and clear as the trailer came out of the garage, making us humans very much aware,it was the Whippets day out at Dunsilly Co Antrim. There was a good turn out, despite the bad weather. The show ring was in immaculate condition, This we have to be very thankful to Victor Mc Donald,owner of Dunsilly Kennells and Race track. Victor has a heart of gold and is a very good friend to the

    That is correct , and I went with Leannes wishes. Anybody that does anything at all for charity deserves never ending praise. Leanne you ran a great show great trophys and for a great cause, You dont have to advertise the proceeds on every site in the land. Autism charities need help, and you certainly played your part for this very worthy cause. You and all your show goers and sponsors, have helped to make some little persons path in life a little easier, You have a heart of gold Well done Leanne, we are all very proud of you.
