Nearly April and things are starting to get more organised for the PRA FUNd Raising Weekend. The rosettes have arrived and they are very nice. You won’t be ashamed at all to put one on the wall.
National Terrier is the next show where a number of Glens can be seen together and this year there [...]

At least all the WEATHER over Easter was useful for the Glens. It was too awful to go anywhere so there was only dog walking. Hats, gloves, coats for us with the Glens just leaping around going out, out out!!! In case anybody ever wonders Glens do not need coats or waterproofs of any sort, [...]
Looking Forward.

Spring has come in like a Lion, we are all hoping it goes out like a Lamb and perhaps a sign we might get a good summer particularly for a certain weekend in July!
Caravanners need to book ( those needing hook ups ) with the Poplars Farm as they have only limted site available. This [...]

It doesn’t matter whether St Patrick’s Day was officially the 15th or the beginning of April due to the very early Easter this year mentally it will always be March 17th. So as the Glen of Imaal Terrier, by its very name says Irish, Happy St Patrick’s Day!
A whole week since Crufts!!!

How can it be a whole seven days since Crufts? The week has whizzed by, full time working is doing the head in, so hopefully by now all Glen of Imaal exhibitors are long home and recovered. It took the Finland crew an extra day, a night in Paris and then no planes leaving from Stockholm, and [...]
Crufts-All Over Now!

Crufts came, Crufts went and it seemed to be quite a success….well at least from the bottom reaches of Hall 1. There actually were a few spectators at 8.30am when the judging began of Glen of Imaal Terriers and it was a sort of double, double, double in the ring. Homer was BOB again (double [...]
CRUFTS-It’s too late now!

No, the coat isn’t going to grow and that last minute muscle isn’t going to appear. Glen of Imaal Terriers are in the Crufts ring in less than 24 hours so it’s a case of WYSIWYG now. Hopefully the bags are packed/nearly packed/practically packed and as long as the dogs, passes, leads, headache pills and [...]

At Crufts everybody thinks their Group Day is the best but Terrier Day is THE one to visit. As well as all the fabulous dogs you will see animals that you may remember from being little. Aunt Maud always had a Sealyham or Grandad with his Manchester, breeds that you don’t see much anymore but [...]
CRUFTS…up and running.

Well, it’s day one and the only gossip from Crufts seems to be that betting has been suspended by a top bookmaker on who will take the eventual number one spot. A certain Group has been mentioned and a dog from that group has been tipped for weeks to take the number one spot so [...]
