Oh the indignity. My gorgeous GWP cross has been beaten in the GWP club photo competition by a Hippo?  Embarassed I best not tell Ferdy.

Some great photos there - so well done everyone who organised it. Lovely shots of lovely dogs and one hippo.

I know I know draw a line, get over it and move on. But really a hippo.....

I blame the rubbish photographer, not the dog!  I sent in lots of pictures of my Bill and the Hippo still won!  Embarassed Or maybe we should blame Royal Mail - I bet they didn't even recieve our pictures!   Razz  I would have liked to see your lovely Wire Cross pictures though, Put them here instead.  Very Happy

That was great.  Very Happy My faves I think were the one with the lamp shade over the head and the pups having such fun tearing their beds to shreds.  (Though I wouldn't have fancied clearing up after them) Smile

Helen I can assure you that your photos were received (along with your cheque  Very Happy )   Choice was down to Carol Ann and those were her choices on the day.  She did say there were lots of very good shots but when she had so many good ones she then became "techie" and wanted to see decent presentation, colours, subject in centre of picture and the likes to try and separate them  Smile
