Alyosha Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Sleeping in is NEVER overrated I do tend to agree with you. :D I always aim for the eary drop off - that way I should get there at some stage before my breed gets judged!! :D I do tend to run late to shows... have done some spectacular runs from the car/trailer straight into the ring... Lucky my breed can get away with little to no prep sometimes!! Sheridan - 22 Staffords, ring 1 on Sunday, not before 10.30am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkySoaringMagpie Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 STILL no numbers!!! :D hope they get here bloody soon................... I would phone the secretary this close in to check that your entries made it - unless you did them on OzEntries I guess in which case you should be fine.

edgesmum Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 STILL no numbers!!! hope they get here bloody soon................... I think I am the only person in the world who didn't get Canberra Royal numbers last week! ;) no you're not ..LOL .... I got mine today. Mine arrived today too (it wasn't a conspiracy after all ) 14 Havanese entered Does anyone know which classes in breed and group are being judged. The schedule doesn't say, so I am assuming it is like a 'normal' show where 3,4,5,10 and 11 will be judged in breed, group and show? Plus BOB and RUBOB, and BIG and RUBIG (rather than group 1,2,3 & 4) The instructions say that (for toys, terriers and hounds) " ... Breed and Class in Breed winners from the previous days judging are required to attend [on Sun 27]". So I assume POB, JOB, IOB, ABOB, OOB, BOB and RUBOB all have to come back?? (this will be the whole entry for some breeds LOL). I thought last year they only judged puppy in group, BIG and RUBIG. Gail :D : Numbers arrived today!!!! YAY!!!!!

angelsun Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Got my numbers as well. Hopefully I'll make it as it's still a bit up in the air at the moment, but going to give it a real go to get there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyosha Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Do many people show at the Robertson Show? http://www.robertsonshow.org.au It's normally quite well attended. We went a few years back and it was lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkySoaringMagpie Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I am not keen on Robertson Ag, not because of the dog section which has always been fine and well run, but because of those horrible, loud, deeply unfunny announcers the Ag Show has wittering on incessantly. They were so damn loud one year I couldn't hear myself think, IIRC it was the year after the Equine Flu outbreak when the dogs were in the horse arena. We would only go if we thought the judge was awesome, and we'd bring earplugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Thanks for the heads up! My daughter hates loud noises so we'll take ear plugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyosha Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 One of the sideshow rides at Crookwell last weekend had the most obnoxious siren that went off for far too long each time it started up. I felt for anyone with sensitive dogs - it was awful. And set up on the closest edge of the sideshow to the dog section - but even closer to the horse ring - some of them must have hated it!!.

Alyosha Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 @ Arwen! Mine ignore them, but some dogs hate them. They are pretty strange, this one was two massive arms that swung around - definite lunch-losing material!! It's a great entry for the Hound Club Show SSM!!
