Some pics & vids from CRUFTS - warning, PIC HEAVY!

Not very good pics - my camera decided to not work on the day so I had to use my phone & min-camcorder which don't have zooms on them, but here goes..............

Hmmm, for some reason photobucket won't upload my vids, so I'll have to do those another time!

Great pics Caryll. Love the pics of the bullies.
Im starting to like this breed the more I see them.

Did you have a goodtime Caryll?

Nice one Caryll!! Brill pics of the bullies!!

Cheers Caryll, I wa so excited watching it

lovely pictures caryll, seems you had a really good time

Great pics Caryll, hope you had a really good time love the bullie pics i've allways loved bullies gorgeous looking dogs thanks

I had a great time, but I couldn't get near enough to the ring to get decent pics.

Hopefully next year my camera will work properly & I'll be able to zoom in.

i wonder how many staffie and bull terrier was there do you know mrs caryll

Good pics Caryll glad you enjoyed it love the Bullies but i'm a big fan anyway, i don't how the dogs wait round all day and sit and wait Samson would be climbing the walls and jumping all over people, guess thats why he's laid on the settee and not at crufts

Awww nice caryll hope you had a great day loved your pictures cameras always seem to play up when you most want to use them.
Dempsey looks so cute as a baby awwwww

Sorry, Janey, what do you mean?

The stafford ring is by far the biggest of all the breeds entered.
I herd them say one breed of dog had only 14 entries for dogs and * in all there classes so it shows the competition in staffys is very high

Yes, 332 dogs is a huge entry, one of the highest for the whole show!

I only ment that such a huge amount of staffies are enetered but on TV only a handfull are shown? Is it because of the negativity regarding the breed?? They did mention it when she came 3rd? That peoples opinions are changing?

They only show the best of breed usually in all of the breeds so its nothing personal to the stafford. The breeders are passinate to give there chosen breed good press and tirelessley campagne the staffy in good light. Its usually the press who judge and print staffy when its usully a cross breed thats why the breeders and judges are quick to defend the breed

Loved all the pics.. how exciting to see all those glorious dogs in one place. Everytime I hear the word Crufts I think of The Goodies when they put Graeme's creation Frankenfido in it... hahaha !!!

Great pictures Caryll
