Cancelled show - Basenji Club of Great Britain

Basenji Showing
  • Apparently the Basenji Club of Great Britain open show (per Irene Horner) has been cancelled due to the adverse weather conditions. I do know that most shows in Scotland this weekend have been cancelled (i was due to steward at the Scottish Dobe show on Sunday but thats cancelled now too).

    Lets hope things are ok for LKA next week.

    ps temperature at my house this morning was -15, over a foot of snow in garden - this is the first day this week i have been able to travel in to work. Still, serves me right for living in Scotland i suppose..

  • Thats a shame, but for the best. I wasn't entered as I am supposed to be working. I have booked a day off for LKA and couldn't push my luck at the busiest time of year for us.

    I wont be at work tomorrow either unless they send the 4x4 to come and get me!

  • Does anyone know what the entry was?

  • When was this due to be held? I obviously havent entered :D

    The weather is not too bad down here, and im not too far from Birmingham. We are due to get a bit more snow and ice but nothing like what is in Northern England and Scotland, so I cant see LKA being cancelled unless the forecasts are way off and we do get snowed in down here!

  • That's a shame but very wise.

    I'm not doing LKA but lets hope we don't have a rerun of the early nineties when people were stranded for hours on end:eek:

    @evillemon said in How to start showing: @debradownsouth Yes we figured we will wait until he is at least two before we make any decisions on neutering him. I can understand why you might want to neuter a female but a male? Agree you need to wait. Most of the reasons advanced to neuter come from groups with an agenda but without solid science. Generally speaking the health risks of neutering outweigh any benefits and there is no effect on behavior. In my experience, having an intact male Basenji never presented any issues at all. Unless you just let your dog roam free I can't think of a single good reason to do it.

    I trim tails, whiskers. I do chalk then finish with a shine spray or wipe.

    @vstripe: How many basenji's are at specialty shows I have never been. I went to a small dog show in southern california and I think there were only 12 basenjis. My B and I had a nice time watching the show. We had over 60 Basenjis for our Specialty weekend.
