Barking Mad and Eukanuba – together making good dogs great

Minix Wins Best Novice!....

Minx continued her winning ways last year  to accrue enough points to win 1st place in the novice 2006 Border Terrier league which was presented to Den & Minx at Chippenham 2007 agility show.

Barking Mad Crufts 2007......

This year Den & Niki were competing at Crufts Fri, Sat & Sunday. Niki & Cruise were competing in the ABC category and finished 3rd overall. Den competed with Minx in the small challenge and also finished overall 3rd plus they also ran in the circular knockout. Minx also won the best small novice dog for 2006 which was presented to them at Crufts

In addition to Den & Niki other Barking Mad members also competed at Crufts.  Adam and Dexter were there Friday running in the YKC Medium agility he had a great run but got faults at the weaves (a very hard entry). Adam said he enjoyed himself and was very proud of Dexter.  In the circular knockout as well as Den looking fetching in pink, Michelle with Pepsi and Niki with Glen also ran, with Niki & Glenn finishing equal 3rd. Niki said "Glen was great after he'd ran it once he knew where to go!". I think she was just trying to play it down a bit because she had to run around with him too.
