🌟Dorset County Show🌟
Well where to begin. We had a fantastic weekend at Dorset County Show. Our main showing day was Saturday and the girls and Dougal did us proud against strong competition and big classes across all ages.
Ginger Spice and Princess Lily got 2nd and 4th in the cow with calves at foot class. Te Aroha went into her first calf class and came out with 1st, we have high hopes for her in the future. Dougal came away with 2nd.
Dotty and Whisper went into the yearling heifer class and came away with 2nd and 4th. Super proud of how they have come along this season.
Moira and Black Annag went into the 2yrs heifers and over class, B.Annag getting 3rd and Moira coming away with 1st.
We took two lots of pairs in and came away with 1st and 3rd.
Moira then went into the Championship and was chosen as reserve rare and minority Champion. Couldn’t be more proud of all the cows this season but especially Moira, shes pulled it out the bag every time. Can’t wait to see her out with a calf next year.
Sunday we took 2 lots of pairs out again and came away with 2nd in the native cow and heifer class and 6th in the progeny pair.
We also had a surprise in the grand parade on Sunday by being awarded the most points cup won from Saturday. Something we didn’t even know about. Bringing 8 cows out was hard work but it was worth it when we received that surprise.
Thanks to Alan Lyons for judging on Saturday.
On to the last show of the season and a new one for us, Romsey Show. Excited to see what it’s all about.
