Moley's First Race

Moley ran in an Open race (races which only the best dogs go in) at Walthamstow the other day. Unfortunately she came last but we now know the reason why....

A couple of days before her race, the rest of us came down with a cough. Moley wasn't coughing at all and was still running around the paddock at full speed and acting normally so she went to race. Before and after the race, she seemed fine and recovered quickly from the race - didn't seem too out of breath. However the next day she came down with the same cough we all had so we think she may have been feeling a bit under the weather but just didn't show it.

We were all meant to be trialing at Sittingbourne last Tuesday but as we all have a cough we couldn't go so are now having a few weeks off so that we can get rid of the cough. We have all almost stopped coughing now but are having a rest to fully recover.
