CorkyJohn 808 Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 I understand what you're getting at mate but shows/showing do not appeal to me. I've never dressed up in my lasses clothes but can say even without doing it I'm pretty confident I won't enjoy it or get a buzz from it Quote Link to post

fat man 4,741 Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Waterford and Tipperary used to be great around a decade ago. Waterford was a very good show,plenty of working stuff at them and also lads that worked there dogs not posers. Does PD run this show? if so had a real good day there a few years back. Yes pd ran it when i used to go,that was a long time ago. Quote Link to post
WEDGEY 755 Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Still never see me or my dogs at a show no matter what. My dogs are as ugly as sin anyhow......they say that dogs look like their owners so thats me fooked. Shows will continue no matter what, but I think the peddlars will benefit from the shows alot more than the clubs they're funding lol john if your dogs look anything like your avatar your fooked 1 Quote Link to post
