Just wondering if anyone knows if this weekends show at ocean park woonona will be still on, the weather forcast for the next 4 days doesnt look good.

First show with new baby puppy and without my mentors...just a little nervous :)

As far as I know it's still on - we only started showing 7 months ago and I've discovered it goes on rain, hail, ankle deep water or shine! Bring a good waterproof jacket with a hood, pants and sturdy shoes or gumboots (non-slip hopefully)

We're entered - but I think we'll stay home with the amount of water predicted to fall :laugh:

The judges we've shown under in torrential weather have always been very understanding with us - Ziva has looked a little like a drowned rat, in one show we were all carrying out dogs while waiting rather than standing as the water was shin-deep (her movement wasn't that great in water that came up to her belly :laugh: )

Have lots of fun! Do you have walls for your gazebo?

Haha sounds like a good day out bet she had a ball lol, ellie walks better in the rain and holds her head up cause she hates water on her nose :D.

I think i have walls but a tarp would work, may not look as good but will do the trick.

FYI - Tom Couchman just posted this on FB re Wollongong shows

We are on. Ground will be a little wet but we are having the shows, unless we get flooding tomorrow. No rain in Wollongong today and the ground has a coal base so drains okay.

Yeah mandapanda I'll see u in sweepies! I'll be the one there looking all nervous with a very excitable chow chow who just wants to play and will sit down the moment she sees a treat. Defo not gonna be a pretty site. And now my mentor might not be able to make it cos of the rain so I'll be even more nervous and prob go around the ring the wrong way. Hahaha!
