Dog World	The Papillon (Butterfly Dog) Club held its Open Show on 16 February at the Civic Hall, Nantwich. I understand this is quite a popular venue with dog societies and it is easy to see why. Plenty of parking space, the hall itself was most suitable, a good size with plenty of room, light and airy and with good refreshments available at a reasonable price. A good cup of tea too out of a proper cup and saucer not a plastic cup!!! It is a pity that the show was not better supported, it is perhaps a distance for some to travel, a 300 mile round trip for Mark and I, but a Club Open is, or should be, something to make an effort for. Even so there was still a nice quality entry for our judge to go over and I am sure she was pleased with her final selections and it certainly seemed as if everyone was enjoying themselves, I found it very noticeable that there was such a happy atmosphere around the show. Best Bitch and BIS went to Rosemary Ayris' Ibstock Adorable at Tussalud with Best Dog and RBIS going to Jo Davidson Poston's Ibstock Bright Spark for Spinillons, also of course bred by Rosemary and both winners were sired by Rosemary's well known Ch Ibstock Mark of Distinction. BPIS was Queenie Bruce and Amanda Bruce-Jackson's Tijuana She's No Angel. Liz and Alan Bartram were delighted to hear that Burghbridge Fly For Gold had won the Our Dogs/Eukanuba Competition for 2002 based on winning progeny under 12 months of age.
Our Dogs	The Papillon Club Open Show was held on 16th with Elizabeth Cochrane judging. Her BB and BIS was Rosemary and David Ayris' Ibstock Adorable at Tussalud, BD BOS and RBIS was Jo Davidson-Poston's Ibstock Bright Spark for Spinillons. BPIS and RBB went to Tijuana She's No Angel owned by Queenie Bruce ans daughter Amanda. RBD was the Blythin's Aslan Emblem of Julesville and RBPIS was Gleniren Scarlet Monogram owned by Glenn and Irene Robb Jeanette Mackay's Jaylanjay Imastunner has won his JW at just 16months and crowned this by winning RBIS at the Highland CA at Inverness. This little dog has had a very sucessful career so far. I have been given another name to beware of when receiving enquiries for puppies especially bitches, again, the man has an Irish accent. If you telephone me I can give further details

Dog World	I was sorry to hear that Peter Taylor had been taken into hospital suddenly for an operation, the latest news I have is that he is progressing well although may be in hospital for some while. I will pass on more news as I get it meantime we all wish Peter a speedy recovery. Jean Lawrence tells me that Audrey Henderson from the Oxford area passed away recently. Audrey whose prefix was Bishopsmarston had papillons a number of years ago although more recently had concentrated more of her affenpinschers but she would have been known to some of our older members.
Our Dogs	At the N & E Cos Papillon Club Limited Show Carl Sparrow made Anna McKnight's Daneview Rhythm and Blues BD and BIS. BBand RBIS was Austin & Thompson's Glasafon Fantasy at Jhanakia. RBB went to Linda Woodrow's Lnflyer Perfect Lady and RBD and B Puppy was Lee-Farnsworth & Brookfield's Graycaz In The Red Entries for the popular Calandar Competition (maximum size 8"x^6 ) will be accepted from the end of March The charge will be 50p per photograph and should be sent to Queenie Bruce 'Mandrew' 67 Wroot Rd, Finningley, Doncaster DN9 3DR, 01302 770847. Now the evenings are drawing out start getting some good Papillon pictures. Remember it is not just show pictures but those that show off the varied activities and aspects of our dogs that are wanted. Peter Taylor of Brentville Papillons has had to be taken into Hospital suddenly for an operation, he is making good progress but will be in hospital for a time yet. Best wishes for a speedy recovery
