Hi everyone

I have organised greyhoundhomer to have a stall at this years Belfairs fun dog show on Sunday the 17th May. We shall be selling doggy items but also will be promoting our lovely greyhounds as wonderful pets. If anyone would like to come and support us with your greyhounds you are all very welcome. This event is very popular they have quite a few stalls selling various items and food and drink is on sale as well. It is £1 to enter your dog into the competition. It starts at 12pm till 4pm.

Hi Diane,

Can't make this one as we have Essex Young Farmers the same day too. - Sorry!

See you soon

That's ok Pia I knew there was another show on. But if anyone who cannot make that one, would like to come to ours who live closer are more than welcome. Looking forward to this and hoping weather is going to be sunny as it has been on previous years.

Hi Diane

It all deoends in whether we're boating (long story), if not then I'd be happy to help on the stall if needed

[suethejam]

Assuming that I can come, would you like some home-baked dog treats to sell?

[prince]

Sue that would be lovely, home made dog treats will go down well. If there are any jams spare for me to sell we shall be selling them as they are so popular.

[suethejam]

I can definitely do some jam too (no strawberry though!) - I will drop some off even if I can't stay for the day (all depends on boating plans, complicated by boat repaiers running behind yada yada....)

[teddyedward]

Ted and Ruby will be coming along. It's their favourite place!

[suethejam]

I have a selection of dog treats for you to sell but I have no idea how much you should charge for them. At the jumble sale we sold the liver muffins for 50p each and I think we did the biscuits at £1 for a bag of 10. Ill leave it to you to decide!

Here's what I'm bringing:

Liver Muffins
Cheesy Chomps
Fruity Cheesy Stars
Minty mouthfuls
Peanut & Banana biscuits
Banana pillows
Golden hearts

Hope they sell well - we were sold out in no time at the jumble sale :-)

[prince]

Thank you Sue I was going to ask what price to sell these treats at. I shall go with what your selling them at as a guide line. Thank you again.

It will be lovely to finally meet Ruby and cuddle Ted again. See you Sunday Dave.

Hi Everyone
I would like to give everyone a big thank u for the help and support at Belfairs today. It was a great success and we shall definitely be doing this again next year. We had great interest in the rehoming side with also people interested in helping with the walking. We raised £162.50 and money still rising. I would like to say all of the greyhounds did their part at showing how wonderful pets they make and please hoomans give your greyts a hug from me, they are all great ambassadors.
I would like to thank Sue cooke for the lovely dog treats and muffins we sold out by the end of the day, and your jams are selling well.
Thank you again
Diane

Both Ted and Ruby had a great time and it was so good to see how Ted has developed into such a calm dog. Ruby is a natural so will bring her to more events in the future. It was great to meet J.D. - what a beautiful dog he is. 

[prince]

Thank you Dave, J.D did really well, we took him home a little early as we don`t want him over doing it. Ruby is a real stunner and I have always had a soft stop for Ted. Saying that I have a soft spot for all greyts (don`t want anyone getting jealous).

[suethejam]

I'm so pleased that the event was a success - it was a pleasure to bake the treats for you (jam is always available!) - let me know if/when you need more.

I'm only sorry that I couldn't be there to help - Archie and Henry do enjoy meeting new people :-)

[prince]

Just a quick update, the total amount raised from the show has just reached £232.40. Thank you all for your help and support.
