The Essex Dog Day

The Essex Dog Day - raising funds for PARC - the first time Top Lodge had performed at this show.
Plenty of attractions in the Main Ring for the visitors.
 David Seamark Sheepdog Demonstration
 Karen and her new puppy Midge had a family gathering with her siblings and relatives.
Fly's brother came along with uncle, aunty and many more - it was a "Border Collie Fest"!!
 And puppy Midge met other puppies - it was a very busy day for her!
 The birds of prey were a wonderful sight.
 Jemima Parry Jones gave a wonderful display with her many birds.
 And of course Top Lodge Dancing Dogs were busy with two performances in the Main Arena.
 Young Midge again featured strongly showing how she is learning Heel Work.
 A very happy puppy.

  Denby also showed some Heelwork positions.
And he completed his first demonstration routine!!   He did all the moves but not necessarily in the order that Kath had planned!
 Denby does like to jump and makes it look so easy!

 It was a début for Dewy too, Lesley's young dog.
They both enjoyed their freestyle routine to "The Night They Invented Champagne".
Thank you to the PARC Chair, Sarah Courage, and all the PARC Committee for inviting the Top Lodge Dancing Dog Team to entertain at this super event.
