Crufts 2008
Well we had a lovely exciting day at Crufts this year,
I'll let Fredie tell you all about it in his own words.
Well where do I start !!!
At six thirty mom, started packing bags I knew I was going to a show cause Id had a bath the day before, and I could smell the Liver cooking :D , She packed two bags this time though one for her to carry, and one for me to carry, "Daddy took my picture so mom will put it on later"
anyway we got in the car I thought great daddies coming, but then he stopped the car and me and mommy got out, then I realised daddy was going back home when he kissed me and wished me luck.
Mommy said he had to look after Faith (Cause she's having my Babies)
anyway ,we went down a ramp, and sat down in a glass room, while we were in there these big noisey things whizzed past us, I wasn't frightened mommy said they were trains, and we were going on one, I was very excited.
In the glass room was a family, with a little girl in a pushchair, she was crying, I think she was frightened of the train, so I kissed her and told her not to worry, that made her laugh, her family were giving me lots of cuddles.
Then a train stopped and opened its doors, I jumped on, found myself and mommy a seat, we sat by the family with the little girl, cause they were going to the same show as me.
while we were on the train a man said it couldn't take us all they way to the show cause some naughty boys had set a fire. so we had to stop at a different station, then get a coach to the show.
I think mommy was worried I would be frightened,but i wasn't. we got off the train and queued up in a big line waiting for a coach , I got on , the gangway was very narrow and I had to squeeze through with my bags on my back, It was hard but I did it, and mom followed me, I found us a good seat, I sat by the window. The lady in front had lovely long hair so I blow dried it for her with my hot breath, but she didn't seem to mind lol
the little girl and her family got on my coach too, and I was glad so I could make sure she wasn't scared.
The coach soon stopped, I let some people get off first then I lead mommy to the door. When we got in the show, mommy couldn't find the stairs so we had to go on some stairs that moved, an esculator I think it was called, It was a bit tricky but I stood very still and jumped off at the top.
we had to say goodbye to the little girl because I had to go in the doggy entrance,
(How dare they !!! do they not know who I am !!!)
when we got in the show it was very busy, lots of people where stroking me and taking my pictures, I felt very special.
Then a group of crazy ladies came over I remembered some of them from before, Steve was with them my personal photographer , he's a lovely man, But I have to watch his wife Jackie , she keeps asking me for kisses, While Im kissing her she keeps asking me If I want to go home to her Mia, I wouldn't mind but she has to understand , I love my mom, and I have a responsibility to Faith, So I hope I havn't hurt her feelings.
anyway I did my bit for mom in the ring, I got a card thing and mom was very happy. I love running around, with everyone watching me.(I know its Vain)
I saw my Nanny Carolyn, and My Nanny Maureen. And My aunty Mel. Then all those Crazy Ladies came back for even more kisses .
Mom got my bags back on and we were just leaving when aunty Mel shouted to mom that I had another class. Mommy had only forgot !!!!
So we went back, and I tried extra hard in that class , And I got the RED card, when The Important judging lady Pulled me out . all those Crazy ladies screamed.
Mommy was very happy.
Then we got our bags back on, and went back to where the trains were , they were loads and loads of people but I was tired so I lay down, Then I spotted her, The little girl I met on the way, she saw me, and shouted my name. I found out her name was Angel, She looked like a little angel too.
I travelled back on two more trains with Angel and her family and mommy of course.
I could tell how mommy was looking at me she thought Id been such a good boy.
It was raining hard when we got off the train, but when I looked up Daddy was there , in the car so I didn't get wet.
I had a lovely day and know Im tired, and Im going to spend Sunday in bed.
Lots of Love
