Well, we had a very busy weekend. Our Zia (auntie) was in from Italy - she came to visit and accompany us to the Fox terrier Fun Day. The Fun Day is the biggest annual fund raiser for the Fox Terrier Rescue. It was held on a fabulous farm on Sunday - we were really excited. D had all our bags ready next to the door the night before!
Well, we set off nice and early on Sunday morning - and as soon as we got there it started raining! Typical English weather in July. D did bring the sunscreen just in case - we called it wishful thinking. There were lots of doggies there - and Paddy and I met so many - Paddy kept trying to play - and I kept trying to take their treats!
We would run out and enjoy the events - then it would rain and we ran back to our cars - here we are in the back of the moving kennel (ie our car) waiting for some food! D brought some very nummy cheese scones...
There were lots of events and a Raffle - I won a 3rd place Yellow Ribbon and Paddy won a 5th place Ribbon - but D says we are always No 1 in her books. There were lots and lots of goodies given and we even won some stuff in the Raffle. Like this very fine Bandana - which looks really good on Paddy we think...
There was a Best Dressed event too! It was a lot of fun - and the organisers did a super job! As always a lot of effort was put in and a lot of people enjoyed themselves! We took a few extra visits to the BBQ! I entered the slowest sausage scoffer contest and came 4th! I then stole a second sausage - it is very exhausting all these competitions - I had to keep my strength up. My favourite part of the event...the BBQ ... they kept it going no matter what the weather - that is true Terrier Owner Spirit!
D and Paddy sat outside and braved some of the rain - we were prepared - brollies, blankies, and towels...
Here are more photos (a lot of them) from the Fun day - we all had a great time and want to thank the organisers for all their hard work again this year!
Lots of licks
Sally and Paddy
