 and on Sunday 4th November we will be at Bull terrier Rescues Christmas Fund Raiser at Milford Village Hall, Nr Godalming from 10 am

We had a good day at Discover Dogs. I picked Sandi up slightly late this morning but as we texted Sally to say we were running late we received a text from her to say the same thing. We made good time arriving before I had even finished telling Sandi the uncensored version of the latest ups and downs in rescue.
The last bit to the car park is always tricky as the sat nav takes us to Earls Court. I made a sudden detour when I thought I recognised a greengrocers, incurring the wrath of the London drivers expressed in the usual way!
But we made it and as we turned into the car park I remarked 'Ooh there's a nice Staffie,' only to realise it was Boycie with Sally and Simon, great timing.

 Boycie was an absolute star! Calmly taking the stroking and patting from young and old, large and small and generally ignoring the other dogs, looking stunning in his red harness. The only time he wasn't happy was when Sally and Simon left him with me whilst they looked around the show. He became very subdued eventually lying down on a chair with his back to everyone. We thought he was getting tired but once they returned he was back to himself again!

Val and Stuart arrived with Daisy and Honey at lunchtime immediately stopping the crowds, and Boycie and the first shift were able to go for a well earned rest.
I didn't quite make it back to hear Dave play the Last Post at the war memorial, having walked ALL the dogs for me earlier, but it was great to get back to the dogs and get them out briefly before dark.
(Val may add her report of the afternoon later.)
