VA Scottish Games 2011

We decided to go to the VA Scottish Games again this year. We always have a good time, and it is open to dogs.

Finn is always a big hit.

There were many other dogs there, including this very cute Scottish Terrier.

This adorable little girl kept hanging around, and finally asked "May I hug your dog?"

Bill and Finn holding court. Notice Finn's neck ware matches Bill's kilt? Later we found a collar and leash in the Montgomery tartan.






We also met Guinness, another IW at the festival. He is a lure coursing champ!

We walked in the Dog's Parade, met lots of people, and ate bangers and mash for lunch. Despite it being hotter than we expected, it was a good day.

Virginia Scottish Games 2010

Today we went to the Virginia Scottish Games at The Meadows in The Plains, VA. The festival runs for two days, Saturday and Sunday, and is dog friendly! We saw lots of other dogs there.

Scotties,

Westies, all kinds of dogs and even other Irish Wolfhounds. There was a booth for the Westie Rescue, Greyhound Rescue, Shelties, Collies, a dog wading pool and terrier races.

Finn shared some of our fish and chips.

We watched a pipe and drum band perform. I notice Finn was not noise reactive at all, not even when the pipers played right in front of us.

We stopped at the Montgomery booth to cool off in the shade. Finn had a lot of visitors., including some who remembered him from last year.



Eventually he just went to sleep. He was one tired puppy!
