Crufts 2016

This year I've attended Crufts and I have so many pictures, that I've decided to make an additional post on Festus's blog. I got a few things for him, that I will talk about in another post. There were, from looking in the show book, 206 entries for Rottweiler. I have to admit it's a larger number that I was expecting.


Lots of stands with everything you need for dogs. There were treats, food premium and super premium, toys, vet beds and other types of pads. There were accessories and supplements. It was everything, even pieces of art.


I loved the fact that we were able to walk around the dog stands. If the dogs wanted some privacy or they were tired, their space was closed with towels or crates. Everything was done to be comfortable for the dogs.






She was trying to sniff something underneath the bench. I though she was hilarious.

In the discover dogs section it was so crowded. Everybody wanted to pet dogs and ask questions. As you can see, the rottweilers were very popular.


She wanted to lick my face, obviously.

I saw the demonstration held by West Midlands Police. It was quite impressive and I was familiar with the training.






I had an amazing time at Crufts. It was the 125th anniversary and a really amazing dog show.

What I did this month #2

February is always busy. This year it started with a trip to London, followed by a week away in Birmingham.

Blowing off some steam after a couple of hours in the car.

Have a lovely walk in a new park.

Getting some sleep at the holiday cottage in Birmingham.

But also having fun at the same cottage in our own private field.

Everybody loves snacks during long trips with the car, don't they?

Rope balls are perfect.

Having a little nap on a very comfy pillow made out of storage boxes, of course.

What I did this month #1

What I did this month is a new monthly series to record funny moments or just usual everyday stuff.
Festus is sleeping after a long day doing doggy stuff (like more sleeping).

January is the perfect time to enjoy those extra gifts you didn't manage to eat during Christmas.

A little DIY is also welcomed in January... like taking out the cap from the radiator.

Doing all those things is a tiring thing, so more sleeping is necessary.
Two daily walks in the nearby park are essential for keeping active.
