Good News for the long-awaited show scene.  Bournemouth Canine Association will be holding their Championship Show on the first weekend in October, the Kennel Club has now issued a licence.  Hounds will be judged on Saturday 3rd  October.  Judging will be Mrs Jean Wright.  Entries are now open on Higham Press/DogBiz, closing at midday on Thursday 8th September.  On the Higham Press Web sight there will be comprehensive risk assessment available to be viewed.
The Show Manager has made the following statement:” It would be good for you to bring your gazebos no larger than 10 feet X 10 feet, also small pop up tents and you can erect them in designated areas that will be clearly marked out,  not in the grooming rings or around the ring as you will be asked to move, there will be plenty of space to help with your social distancing and grooming.  You will need to bring your own chairs to stop cross contamination.  There is plenty of room on our 50 acre show site.  We ask you to bring your own masks as some judges may on the day want you to wear them.    There will be hand sanitising stations around the show ground.  We will supply judges, stewards and helpers with masks, glove and hand sanitisers.”.  
The Bournemouth committee have worked very hard to fill all the requirements to make this show a reality.  I am sure the whole canine show community is grateful for their refusal to be beaten by the pandemic.   Cross your fingers that everyone in the southwest area stay’s well and the show is able to proceed.
