Lurcher Terrier and Whippet Show and Raceday in Baltinglass County Wicklow on 30th of March all qualifiers for 5 nations and Master Mcgragh, more details closer to event

Hi Tommy what is this show being run in aid off, just like to know what I am supporting.

Lurcher Ireland (tommy cullen) is only in dogs to make money for him self. I have never ever seen any one ask to judge a lurcher at a show and try to sell his DVD in the ring at the same time as judgi

why cant we find out who the profits from this show are going to???

stop dodging the question where are the funds going too, be honest with yourself and others.

 

Whats the problem with people not been able to answer questions.. People have the right to know what their supporting especially when many people are travelling from across the country.. In my opinion its ignorance... Not all shows go towards hunt clubs, the Wicklow terrier lurcher and whippet club hold theirs for cancer research and many other shows are held for charities.. So can u answer the question ?? Where are the donarions going to and stop beating around the bush !!

I too would like to know who profits from this show ! Can you answer the question please before we decide to go?

To me, it looks like the organizers are in it to line their pockets,so i wont be attending and can i suggest to the REAL dog men on here to follow suit.

Personally I think someone has a problem here about answering a simple question which many supports are asking.. It's ignorance and the organisers shouldn't be so god damn low and tell the people where the funds are going to.. These people are travelling probably half the country for this show for what ? So their hard earned few bop can go into someone else pocket ?? Cause that's the way it's looking

Is there some rule if people run a show it has only to be for a charity, ? Is there some thing wrong with the organisers making a profit,,, ? sound like your a bit jealous... they put a lot of time and effort in the show , hope they make a mint...

Lads why do you care if the profits go to this or that ??? (genuine question) the whole point of attending these things is to try and win either a race or show with your own dogs or just to meet up with other like minded people when the hunting season is over. Fair play to the people who run shows and donate to charity but it sure doesn't mean everybody must do the same. Are you all trying to tell me you take your dogs to shows throughout the summer just to help charity ? Wow and here is me thinking its a day out with the family and dogs for a bit of craic and maybe the odd win. Lads hunting is finished for the season and It would be a very long boring summer for us all and our dogs without people getting off their arses and running these shows.

      A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL MY FRIENDS IN THE COUNTRY SPORTS  ARENA
      As we approach the end to 2025, I would like to reach out and personally thank  all my friends in Country Sports for all  the hard work you  put into  organising our dog show and race days in 2025 for all to enjoy. These were all fantastic events and truly served as a wonderful window for our Country Sports fraternity.
      Days like these at our dog shows in the summer are so important for our community, and your details and dedication to the cause has really shone through. So many charities have benefited over the years and so many new friends made at these get togethers  by like minded people. This was very evident in July this year when the Burren Working Dog Club gave £17,OOO to a charity. What an achievement.
       
      I know there will be some very sad homes  this year,  with places missing at the  dinner table  in  our Country Sports  community. Can I please offer my heartfelt sympathy to all those people , and  hopefully with Gods help you will get through to brighter days ahead.
       
      Many thanks to the McGrath Racing Club Carlow, for a great day out at the 5 Nations and who has travelled north and south of the border to run our racing so efficiently and helped me out on many occasions..  A special word of thanks to Tally Ho ( Peter Morgan ) for keeping the Country Sports window open in the dark days of winter by organising your virtual competitions and giving away so many generous prizes in return. This is so greatly appreciated .
       
      And Finally, to my mentors and long term friends  Mr 5 Nations himself, yes The King of the Castle Albertj Titterington and his lovely wife Irene. Albert it is great to see you getting back to health again, and we look forward to seeing you back on the scene in 2026.
       
      Finally, Finally, may I take this opportunity  to  wish you all North and South of the border and further afield a very Happy Christmas and  Prosperous  New Year.
       
      To we meet again in 2026 God Bless

      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 undue grief
      Lift up your hearts my friends and share with me
      God wanted me now,  
      He set me free.
      John, we will love you forever and you will be sadly missed by your loving family and all your Country Sporting Fraternity and in the show ring.
      May the Angels above give you the best seat in Heaven and may your gentle soul rest in peace.
      For Country Sports Fraternity
      Margaret Mc Stay
