YM,   Your dog was like yourself - perfectly behaved!

at the end of the day the judge picked what she thought looked good it just happened to be she knew the winners owners well thats how it goes i have to laugh at all these big game hunters lololol there dogs look like a pile of shite and half the owners too hogie if youre the hogie i think you are your are a wee dick always pished at fairs and kicking your dogs youd be better with cows or something thats a bit bigger than you maybe even a pig lololol kirtsy your banging on about winning...what have you ever won all i ever see is the same face with trophys and i dont think its yours sorry albert i didnt know i was able to get in cheap to shanes or birr ballywalter seems to be gettin smaller i have to say poor quality and range of stands i think its strange all these people turning up with saplings and adult dogs.....just where did the hide them before racing them..lifford ? :whistling: kirsty harper you and daddy have bredmore litters than any farmer in the uk and the only winner is a nonped whippy sorry whippet :hmm:

well if you no me who are you pm me if you want as for hitting the dogs your full of shite yes they'll get a slap if they are pulling and howling like f**k because they dont act like that anyother time so if there at a show i don't expect them to get on like that and im over 18 so i'll have a drink if i f*****g want to prick why dont you come over to me at the next dog show and call me a wee dick face to face Edited by hogie

Well i had a good day the showing went well and it was good to see a working lurcher get the overall lurcher. What i would say is that maybe it should be done the same way as moria free into the dogshow or small fee and if you want to go in to the fair then you have to pay .

firstly there should be no working class at any show because that means the rest of the classes r not working--- if they are not working they should not be there unless they r pups. gamefairs r for hunting minded people not people who just like the look of a running dog r terrier r rag racing the whole thing is fooked

 

Thanks for letting me know how to run Game Fairs and terrier & lurcher shows - I am only the person who launched the first sustainable Irish Game Fair in 1979 and who agreed to host one of the first major terrier & lurcher shows in 1980! Our aim is to be inclusive and encourage as many people as possible enjoy their dogs.

you mean so you can enjoy their money,lets face it you wouldnt sit at a hole where theres no rat

U cany please some people there was some aruments on the day about looking re runs in the racing because someones dog got bump the whole way big deal my 18month old pup was in a final with massive dogs an he was bumped an put off but who do u complaine to as it can't be stoped I was cross yesterday I've calmed down over it as it can put him off but over all I enjoyed the show an thot judges done well

 

Flash,

 

This is a difficult one. It must be disappointing to prepare your dog only to have its chance ruined by another dog. As you know this happens in greyhound racing and there is no re run.

 

But you have another chance at very good prizes in our 'Golden' 50th Fair at Shanes Castle on the 7th & 8th July.

ALBERT WHY CANT YOU MAKE A LIST OF THESE DOGS AND REFUSE THEM ENTRY, MY YOUNG BITCH HAS TO GO TO THE VETS THIS MORNING ONE OF THEM FIGHTING GREYHOUND FROM THE SOUTH NEAR KILLED,ATTACKED HER BOWLED HER OVER, WHEN SHE WAS RUNNING BRILLANT AND ONE OF THE FEW CHASING THE LURE,NOT NICE FOR MY YOUNG SON AND DAUGHTER TO SEE.AND DANGEROUS FOR THE OTHER DOGS

 

Difficult to control as I said you even see it happening in regulated greyhound racing. In my opinion a lot of it may be due to dogs not being trained to chase a lure. Would welcome opinions on this but after how many incidents would you ban a dog?

if you cant control it dont do it ,simple as

I think any reasonable person would accept a bit of jostling for position between dogs chasing a lure but to me, a dog that is overly aggressive and more interested in doing the other dogs needs to be told to stay out of it.

      " Keep er Lit " Dog Show Sunday 26th April 2026
      It was rise and shine time on Sunday morning and just as dawn was breaking into daylight, we were on our way to our first dog show of the year. Very soon deep in the heart of the County Antrim countryside we arrived at the now famous Doagh Equestrian, and the venue for the annual “Keep er Lit “ dog show and what a day that was.  
      As usual the grass was immaculately cut with the show rings well spaced out and plenty of cold water for our precious canine friends on a very warm day 
      As the morning progressed into noon, cars and trailers with dogs in tow filled the field to capacity.  There was a very large crowd at this now very popular annual show.   The craic and the banter was in full swing among the huntsmen and women, after waving good bye to Mr Fox and his girlfriend of on their summer holidays.
      As I walked around the field I spoke to many of my canine friends of yester year. There was plenty of tea, coffee and chips on offer and Paul Boyd was there with everything you need in Country Sports gear. 
      Some great bargains was to be had in the  Equestrian shop on site with big discounts on offer on the day. I had to take control of my retail therapy when I got into the shop, otherwise I would off went home penniless.  
      When showing was complete, it was Raffle Time, and as usual the raffle generates a lot of excitement around the field, with some great prizes on offer. Time passes so quickly and very soon it was show time.

      And Finally, Finally Leigh Thompson and Paddy Gibson, what can I say that will praise this partnership enough.

      Leigh and Paddy, Thanks for the memory and I am already looking forward to more of the same in 2027.
