Trudging Along
29/01/09 11:10 Filed in: update
Its been a pretty quiet week at the kennels with the weather not exactly being condusive to lots of activity but we must struggle along and can only hope that the weather turns soon as the paddocks are in a right mess with the non stop rain thats pounded it, roll on whatever summer we will get.
Rosey(Final Rose) has settled in as if she had been here all her life, food is something she adores and she would gladly eat your hand given half a chance, a very friendly bitch as well and it makes life so much easier when they settle in so quickly.
I have had many people ask who I might go to with her, first thoughts were Larkhill Jo and on paper it makes complete sense but I do also like Maldini and Premier Fantasy.
Sash and Jazz are doing fine with Jazz especially acting like a juvenile delinquent, she takes mad periods wereby she believes she is a pup again, really funny watching her and it does make me happy seeing them so well within themselves, even Angie (Knockeevan Angie) belts around the paddocks and barks at the pups and shes supposed to be retired and taking life easy.
Greyhound Products UK have decided that they would like to join in the ride that we are going to provide for you all this year, being 1 of the very first Greyhound Stores and with hundreds of various ranges I am sure they can cater for all your needs, having used Greyhound Products for Presentation Jackets last year I can honestly vouch for the sheer quality they provide, they also personalised The Emily Wood Memorial Olympic Finalists jackets for me, this seems like no big deal but considering that the semis were on the Saturday Night and the Final on the Thursday, to have 6 Jackets printed up with finalists names and delivered to my door for The Tuesday was, In my opinion, a First Class Service, If you could take a browse around their website which can be found on our home page and don’t be afraid to contact George or Nikki should there be a product you require, please feel free to quote Questhouse Kennels should you be ordering anything.
Winners since last Winners entries on here are, Pick n Micks(Twice), Ashbys Hawk, English Rose, Smoking Shady, Smoking John, Smoking Jim and The Last Baby all at Hove and all Smoking Babys pups, at 18 months old 8 out of the 9 pups at Hove have won a race and they are far more backward than the first litter where, if they can looked after in this early stage I am sure that we will see massive improvement with age.
Oxford Don wins AGAIN at Nottingham, This lad has done fantastic winning 5 out of his last 6 A1’s and beaten a sh-hd in his Open, sterling effort by dog and trainer.
First time winners for Aero Furtado at Harlow and Trejon Scholes at Perry Barr, not the highest grades but hopefully its a launch pad for both these dogs, i’m sure i’ll be posting their names again on here.
Questhouse Misty and Questhouse Kylie(Newcastle) both won as did Vote For Pedro again, once again he came from behind, which is becoming very rare these days as far too many pups(Mines included) seem to down tools if they don’t get things all their own way, Pedro has at least shown that he is willing to knuckle down to the task in hand and 28-40 at Belle Vue in your 3rd ever race is good going.
Special mention must go the final winner, Bonnie Ben who was 4 in October and has ran a staggering 132 races, what makes this stand out is the fact he has won 34 of them(13 being opens) and 33 2nds and 34 3rds, thats 101 times out of 132 that he has been in the 1st three, i’m sure you’ll agree that this a tremendous feat, well done Bennie boy you have been a tremendous credit to everyone associated with you especially Julie Luckhurst and staff who have done a great job with him.
