Default Tickets for Crufts

Would anyone out there like two tickets to Crufts on Hound and Terrier day. I have a dog entered but won't be able to go as I will have a new-born litter of puppies.
Anyone interested,give me a shout.(Free,by the way!)

Ooh, puppies, what sort are they Polly?

I would love to go to the hound and terrier day but can't see me having time this year. We used to breed miniature dachshunds and scottish deerhounds (yes I know, slight size difference)

Polly - I'm not a taker for your tickets - but congrats on the new litter - you didn't say what breed.

Hi, Polly.

I've a friend who loves greyhounds, will try to get in touch with her and see if she fancies it as we were both saying last night how we were sick of being confined indoors due to the weather, but that there's little to do until things brighten up. I'll PM you in a few minutes.

Whippetsez, how cute i love the sight hounds, we have 2 lurchers who are just adorabl (well, they're my parents actually, i just see them occasionally!) and my friend occasionally looks after a pack of whippets who are so sweet!

Would love the tickets, especially as they're for the hound day, but as we can't have a dog at the mo (house constraints) i think the temptation would be too great! I'll stick to watching it on TV this year.

Hope you find a taker (i'm sure it won't be difficult!) and hope the puppies are all OK
