Midland Game Fair September 2011

Well I have had a lovely weekend manning the Discover Dogs stand at the Midland Game Fair at Weston Park in Shropshire with Tracy Cartwright - accompanied by Bronte and Tracy's young bitch Candy. We were there on behalf of the German Wirehaired Pointer Club to introduce people to this wonderful breed and answer any questions posed by members of the public.
On Saturday afternoon Tracy's mum Jenny joined us with their youngster Oscar and together we all took part in the Parade of Gundogs whereby onlookers had the opportunity to view all the breeds and listen to a brief history of their origins and today, Gary joined us at luchtime with Fergus and Winnie to help man the stand.
I think I can speak for Tracy too when I say what an enjoyable time we all had, speaking to people and meeting other wires - and suprisingly there were a quite a few around.
Bronte and Candy were flagging towards the end, I think there are only so many greetings they could make and cuddles and kisses they could share but they were a credit to our breed, as were the youngsters Oscar and Winnie.
