Stephen took Bilbo & Pickle up to Burghley for the Living Heritage Game & Country Fair on the last May Bank Holiday weekend. He met up with son David and family who brought along their campervan. I stayed at home with Dora and the puppies and had various friends staying or visiting so it was good for Stephen to have the company and help! Our thanks also go to Carole Beaumont, her husband and Ella […]
The year is passing so quickly and once again the Game Fairs are upon us with the May Bank Holidays approaching fast!

It was very chilly but the weather was dry and all the activities were able to take place, it was very […]

We love to have other Heeler owners or dog lovers coming to help us and can offer unlimited teas and coffees, biscuits, cake, etc plus free entry and parking to the event. It was a […]
After reading a letter in one of the Dog papers it sparked an interest in trying to get a stand to promote our breed at the Living Heritage Country Fairs. We were offered a stand at the Bowood Dog Show in Wiltshire so we sorted out some banners and our friend Jean sewed an amazing Heeler bunting to decorate the marquee with. We had a very enjoyable and busy weekend chatting about Heelers to everyone […]
