Hello Abby,
 
We hope you are well and all recovered from a brilliant weekend?
 
Thank you so very much for letting take part we had a pawsome time and so much fun!  We met some amazing people and dogs and have found out that our Angel loves Terrier Racing!  Who'd a thought a Bulldog Terrier racing lol lol!
 
The whole weekend was so much fun and we hope can be part of next year as well.  A HUGE THANK YOU TO YOU AND YOUR TEAM for a fantastic fun filled doggy weekend.

Hello and Thank you for another very enjoyable weekend.
 
 
Just to let you know that the "Have a go at heelwork to music" ring got 65 people in to try on Saturday and 82 on Sunday which was great.
 
Last year we had 117 over the weekend so this years figures were up again by another 30 and of course we did the displays too so there were periods where it was not fully manned so I was really pleased that we managed to increase our numbers from last year.
 
My different training groups really enjoyed there stints in the Entertainment Zone ( even if they were really nervous before hand) and I hope that we did what you expected.
 
I am already being asked by my team if we will be coming back next year and if they can be on the team again which is brilliant.
 
Let me know your thoughts when you have had time to recover.
 
I look forward to hearing from you.
