Further update for our show:

Whereas many other years the circumstances would not allow, we are very thankful and pleased to announce that our show this year will be located right in the heart of the Game Fair.

The grounds that have been provided to us are simply outstanding, and are no doubt the best yet.

There will be free purpose made ringside parking facilities exclusively for Dog Show participants, (signs need to be followed to ensure you take advantage of this).

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the NI Countryside Festival Team who have made every effort to ensure that this year; we are not only located at the fair grounds but we will be quite an important part of which in our opinion is the best Game Fair in Ireland.

The level of effort and commitment of the team this year, really shows how much they appreciate Lurcher and Terrier community and value their custom.

Together, we aim to make this our best show to date.

We look forward to seeing you all there

PL,

 

I wish you and your team well at the Maze - although we are going to have to agree to differ on which is the best Irish game or country fair or countryside or country living festival as I think we have two major contenders for this title in our stable! However it is good to see the festival team are now branding the event as the NI Countryside Festival instead of using variants of our brand names and trade marks. This and locating the event in a countryside show setting could create the right conditions for little or no confusion between that event and ours and the bit of difference could mean the events being complementary rather than competing.

 

Also good to see they are following our lead and having the terrier, whippet and lurchers as an integral part of the NI Countryside Festival. Best of luck with the weather although with the new site that will be less important. Hope to see you at some time over the weekend although we are exhibiting at the Ballymena Show that weekend to promote what you might describe as the 2nd best game or country fair!

The show will start straight after the racing final with four rings for the Lurcher,Whippet,Terrier & Strong Dogs.

And we hope with the extra class in the Strong Dog ring results in a good turn out for this breed as there is not many oppurtunitys

for Strong Dog handlers to show their dogs in the showing calender.
