A Tribute to the late John Shaw who passed away last Thursday 6th November 25 I Am Free Do not grieve for me now my friends and family, I am free I am following the path God Laid for me I took his hand when I heard him call I turned my back and left it all I could not stay another day To Love, to live, to hunt, to show my treasured Whippets, or play. I found a peace at close of day. Be not burdened with the times of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow Perhaps my time seemed all to brief Do not lengthen it now with und

The Tally Ho Working Dog Show Saturday 16th August 2025 As I looked out the window early Saturday morning the sun was just breaking through the trees, with a small welcoming breeze filtering over the dog pens. Barking out at us was the usual Whippet chorus signalling the day had arrived for the Tally Ho Working Dog Show and Raceday at Nutts Corner. And what a show that was. I firmly believe nature plays a big part in telling our faithful Canine friends the end of the showing season is on the horizon, and their weekly excursions to the show ring and race track is coming to an end.

The Burren Charity Working Dog Show and Raceday Saturday 26th July 25 From the Pen of Margaret Mc Stay As the clock on the wall jingled out its usual dulcet tones on Saturday morning, it signalled the start of a new day for us and another great sporting event on our country sports calendar. With Mrs Sat Nav being our guiding light along the way, and the beautiful Mourne Mountains following us enroute, very soon The Burren came into view and the dog show venue for the day. And what a venue that was. It was evident the amount of hard work the

The DWTC Traditional Dog Show Sunday 25thMay 2025 As the showing season has now took off for 2025 and the work in the field complete, it was nice to be able to make our annual trip to the DWTC traditional dog show on Sunday 25th May in Gilford. The weather was not kind to us, with a light wind and several heavy showers in between classes. This did not dampen the spirits of the show goers who came out to support this now popular annual show. The venue was superb, and the crowd was big. Our shows are all great meeting places in the summer season for genuine Terrier, Lurcher, Whip
