After a week of fine if blowy weather the forecast predicted rain again and it did not disappoint. This time we could park where we display, as there are fewer attend this event, so we sat under car boot doors to shelter. The weather did deter a lot of people and it certainly wasn't as crowded as other years. We each did a couple of parades around the main market area during the day getting quite wet for our efforts. Again by about 2 pm we were wet, cold and everyone was heading home, so we packed up early. We managed to collect £379 thanks to the generosity of the Beverly people and we had lots of people talking to us and saying how they come every year to see the dogs and how wonderful they are. As a group we certainly work very hard to promote dogs and especially our breed. We must talk to thousands of people each year who are either just interested in the breed or who are prospective new owners, between us we do have a lot of experience with Bernese and try our best to guide interested people in both pitfalls and advantages of our wonderful dogs. Thank you all for your efforts, support and friendship during the year. We look forward to next carting season and wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Very Happy and healthy New Year!
