Message:	We want to congratulate you on the way your little dogs looked and the ones in the enclosure were so friendly. Our son is allergic to animals and it was a treat for him to look at the dogs and see them racing. My wife bet on the ginger one and it won. It meant me treating her to a big meal. Downside or what. Good beer money down the plughole. It was worth it for the happiness in my sons face, and my wifes, OK on mine too. cheers.

Message:	Coming from a Naval background, I took my family to the excellent Sultan Show which in my opinion is the best run in the UK. We were pleasantly surprised to find your fine terrier racing living up to the same standards. It was marvellous, clean entertainment I had no worries allowing my family to view. It was presented professionally with no smut. Something usually only seen in military circles when children are present. Top marks.

Message:	Hi, I agree. If a high profle team like yourselves had a bull breed, like a staff, it would give them a better press. They are not aggressive but because they resemble pits, people think they are. I know, I have been breeding them for 40 years.

Message:	We love the tricky tikes and have seen you at Crufts several times. Your terriers are just great. May we be cheeky and ask why you don't have a staffie? These dogs are so sweet and a high profile team like you could do them a lot of good as they are not true bull breeds. Do think about it. We too think you are wonderful in re-homing a Battersea dog. We did too. it was a staffie. She is just wonderful xxx

We were so nervous about putting our dogs in to the third show because the last time we did it with terrier racing for real we were treated like prize idiots and were talked down to.Your team made us and our dogs feel like tv stars.The commentating was such a comfort as it was funny and entertaining.We will count the days until we can see your team next year god willing. Our boys thought it was better than their ipods and playstations.wow,success where others failed.

Message:	We are a group of land army girls. We came up by coach to the Peterborough Country Show on Saturday. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience made especially so by your marvellous terrier racing and accurate commentary made interesting by the antics of the terriers. We were taken back to our land army days by the part of your commentary about terriers on the farms. In our day most farms had 5 or 6 terriers on the payroll. They were there to kill vermin and rabbits as every ounce of food grown was important to the war effort and waste was a sin, especially waste to vermin. We had a laugh,battle and comradeship from the little dears who used to sit on the tractors looking out for creatures disturbed by the machinery. They caught us many a dinner too. Thank you for your fun and good humoured explanation. We certainly endorse it from live experience. Carry on the good work.

Message:	Many thanks for a wonderful insight into terriers and the countryside. It was the most entertaining and enlightning act in the Peterborough Show. We did enjoy the mixture of the very funny terrier dogs and your top grade explanation why culling in the countryside is important. We never thought of it the way you explained it. We did rather think of you country folk as a lot of animal murderers. You made us think differently I must say. You are right, if mice and rats invade our home we put down poison or employ a cat to kill them. Terriers on a farm killing rats and rabbits or the hunt removing old or sick foxes is just a larger scale variation of what I would do to protect my home. So we are all similarly minded are we not. We will never think of you in the country and us as seperate species again. We will look at the countryside with a different viewpoint. We promise you that. Thank you for letting my daughter handle one of the terriers. It made her day. Hope to see you next year. My daughter has asked if she can have a photo next year of the dog that disappeared up the tube. Jim and Helen

Message:	We have been at crufts today and during a tea break we sat next to a teenage girl with a photo of a tricky tykes scotty called bonny. She saw bonny some years ago at crufts and she said bonny had cancer and so did she. She said bonny's vitality and happy disposition in the ring helped her through very dark times and she believes bonny saved her life. We just had to tell you as it brought tears to our eyes. She has the photo with her always. Good luck to you lovely people.

Message:	We had to tell you how much we learned from and enjoyed the terrier racing at Lulworth countryside show. We were anti country pursuits as they inevitably include killing. After watching the racing and seeing how much the dogs enjoyed themselves and speaking to you on Saturday, we began to understand the sense of the countryside. The remark that went home was when you said about rats and if they were not controlled in rural areas by the likes of your terriers and thousands like them, rats would spill over into towns and cities even more than they do now. What a sobering thought. We live and learn. Perhaps you're right. There is a place and reason for most things. Thanks a million for an entertaining insight. Sarah and Den

Message:	May I with my family congratulate the terrier racing team on a truly magnificent show at Lulworth Castle this last weekend. We live in the country and a show promoting country activities is excellent in it's concept so we attended it on both days together with our guests. The racing was just the right mix of true country sport and great fun with the dogs. Our guests were mesmerised by them, in the words of one of them, appearing to be little killers chasing the lure and yet so gentle when we came to see them afterwards. Thank you for a top class show.

So far this week they have ripped up the Christmas presents my wife took hours to wrap, grabbed an end each of the sweater she bought for me and ripped it in shreds, pulled the christmas tree on the floor and dragged it in the pile one of them deposited on the carpet and smeared it all over the carpet and the tree, and last but not least, one bit my mother in laws ass as it was descending on to the sofa and he even managed to whip away in time before it squashed him. Happy Christmas.

Message:	Despite everything my dog trainer said to the contrary, there are some jrt's who will (note use of "will", rather than "can") not be controlled. My Chip is the most loving loyal little git you can imagine but, he will not walk on the lead, let other dogs near me, or stay in the garden. he got out last night and it took me and 5 of the neighbours, a lot of running about and swearing from us and a chase in the car to catch him. He only came back home of his own accord because he was bored. he chases birds, cats, steals rubbish, steals socks pants and other items of underwear, infact anything not made of forged steel and welded to the floor is vulnerable. Still, I wouldn't be without the little monster. Well o.k, sometimes I do want to kill him.

Problem is, we couldn't hear anything. What a pity as what we did hear appeared to be very informative. Also, it was rather awkward trying to watch the terriers and trying to locate a good position for viewing the air displays. It was all a tad too crammed.

How very considerate of you to allow them to dip in the pool before they raced. We felt like having a dip ourselves. We were quite envious really. Thank you so much Bryony and Francis Cook

Message:	Here's a poem I wrote recently about my JRT pup Belle. 'BELLE' I�m only nine weeks old you know, And very, very petite, I�m mostly white, with two brown spots, And sharp claws upon my feet. The stairs I found a problem, But soon mastered this, Going up is now quite easy, Going down, - it�s hit or miss! I�m told off - yes, quite often, But, what is a pup to do, I only want to play and run, And chew and chew and chew! The Boss points her finger, And tells me no, no, no I think that she is playing, And chew her finger so! All in all, it�s quite good here, Although I get confused, One minute I�m told � good girl� Next minute She�s not amused. The first lesson was to learn my name, Well that was easy stuff, Now she wants me potty trained, Well I think enough�s enough!! She puts paper all around the floor, Expecting me to wee, And if I miss the paper, I�m grabbed up, and out we flee. That puts me right off my stroke, I�m sure you understand, I just, can�t get it though my head, I need to wee outside on land. Dins dins is the best word, That I have learnt of late, I�m never too busy playing, To forfeit this wonderful date. When I�ve finished eating , My belly grows so large, I waddle across the kitchen floor, I feel like a huge barge. Of course, once it goes in one end, It�s soon time for it to reappear. And if I miss the paper again, Away from my Boss, I�ll steer! You are welcome to put it on your web page. Karen Roberts

When we were at crufts a couple of years ago he and my husband had secret bets on the winner. Needless to say my son won and promptly went to petlog to buy our dog a microchip as a present for us. It's the best thing we ever did. Our dog went missing just before christmas and the police found her.

So here is a messsage for the show organisers. Thank you very much for inviting the Tricky Tikes to entertain us. It was by miles the most uplifting show of the day. The spectacular events in the other ring were super but for sheer joie de vivre the Tricky Tikes terriers must take our vote. The people around us were helpless with laughter too. What cheerful and wonderful little dogs. More people should have had the opportunity to see them in the big ring. Thank you.

Message:	We saw your display at the Horse Trials yesterday and would like to tell you how much we enjoyed it. Mr Brookes-Ward said it would be hilarious and he was spot on. We were so amused by those scots. When one went over the jump and the audience cheered it brought a lump to my throat. I remember the first time my horse jumped. My father cheered too. He died the following week. That moment brought memories back. Cheerful ones as the little scots were so funny. It was a shame it had to be shortened as we were so much looking forward to it. That sentiment goes for everyone who sat near my family as we all had a little moan between us. Never mind, we thoroughly enjoyed what we saw and hope they will ask you back next year and give the show more time. I speak as a horse owner and competitor so I understand horse events are hard to time. As there was so much space, they could have given you your own ring. Sarah and family.

We have recently moved house, and Angus and Maccy (as he tends to be called) love having a bigger garden to dig and play football in!! He is a real credit to you and your whole ethos. He regularly, several times a day puts his paw up, or on our knees as you said his grandmother did, as if to say "you ok mum? i'm here!" Thanks so much, and thank you for the christmas card too!! Hope to see you in POrtsmoutyh this year (we have invested in a caravan now, so the dogs are coming on holiday with us) love charlotte

We couldnt get near but there was a big screen and it made us feel close. it reminded us of crufts when the same happened with the tricky tikes. God forgive my comparison but if you were moved by the popes funeral you will understand and so will he. We sw a lovely terrier in rome and wondered about bringing him home. we then found out he had an owner. guess what. it was one of the vatican bishops. maybe they have rats. lots of love, god bless and we hope not to have offended you.

We have been involved with this breed since childhood. I am now 82 years old and my wife is 79 and yes I can manage a computer. Never too old to learn, even for a dour scot! Good luck to you.

We were interested in a scotty and someone in the discover dogs stands said to get in touch with you as you did all sorts of things with scottys. We were told they are dour and standoffish but we still wanted to look into it. Well we have looked at this site and we are convinced. Bonnys story clinched it. We will contact the Kennel Club today to see what is for sale. Thank you so very much. Chris

Message:	We went to Crufts on Friday and enjoyed ourselves but we agree with the person who left a message on the same theme. Terriers were not in evidence at all for people to watch in the special events ring. Just labs and collies and german shepherds and odds and sods. Two displays were similar to the competitions but minus the excitement.What point? The duck herding was the only different show and very good it was too but no terriers. The only place to see terriers was Discover Dogs and when we went to have a look at 3pm some had gone home. Very disappointing. So much for seeing terriers. We asked at the ringside about whether the Tricky Tykes were here and some person in uniform answered tersely that she didn't know where you were and she was fed up with telling people that. They should be pleased that the public show interest. We met a lovely man who suggested we email you so here we are. Please pass our comments on to Crufts. There is no mileage in e- mailing Crufts as they no doubt get 100's of e-mails and ours would be lost in the crowd. Thank you.

Message:	We enjoy Crufts very much and we are involved in terriers in a fairly big way. We are well known breeders of a certain terrier breed and have been breeding for 35 years. Why is it that labradors, collies, GSD's and the like are so well represented by displays at Crufts but the vastly popular terrier is not. There was no terrier racing at Crufts this year. Why ever not? You might as well call Crufts the Lab, Collie and GSD Show as far as this year's entertainment goes. It's a pity. Your terrier racing showed the public with proper handling and training, the terrier is a super little fellow who ranks alongside any collie, labrador or GSD as a family member. We feel strongly that terriers are being put on the back shelf by Crufts. If the public can't see them in high profile action having fun, they will only see them as killers in the field. All dogs are killers so come on, give terriers a chance. Larry and Helen

Message:	We were at Crufts yesterday from early morning showing and were hoping to see the Tricky Tykes Terrier Racing team in action but we were terribly disappointed. It is such a popular and lighthearted show so why wasn't it on? Almost every show in the special events ring was competitive and earnest. We need some fun to remind us of what our relationship with dogs is at the end of the day. We were relaxing in the special events area from about 2 until 4 and in the space of about an hour and a half there were 2 very similar shows on. One was good the other was to be frank,not very. Why have 2 so similar and no terrier racing? I run an obedience club and know the problems associated with correct training. I dislike watching dogs doing circus tricks as it is demeaning to the canine world. Your show is naturally amusing. People don't realise how diffiult it is to train terriers to be consistent. We take our hats off to you. You have a top rate show and very entertaining too. Please return next year.

Message:	IN ANSWER TO MR & MRS HARRIS Regular visitors will be aware that it is not our policy to respond to messages via the guestbook, neither do we delete messages. in this case a response is necessary to clarify a case of mistaken identity. Because we are the biggest and most well known Terrier Racing Team & have a high profile, many people tend to think when that when they've seen terrier racing it must be us. As with other types of displays we are not the only ones - we are just the most famous one. Copied but not bettered. We were indeed at the Portsmouth & Southsea Show as we have been for many years,& will be there again next year. We were also at the Showman's Show but WERE NOT inside the circus tent. However, a smaller terrier racing display, not connected with us, was present inside the tent. Our usual Exhibition Unit was prominently placed between the Main Arena & the circus tent and our unit was visited by many people keen to book the TYKES for future shows. We can assure interested persons that our usual high standards, our 45/50 dogs & our Exhibition Unit/Visitor Centre will continue to be at shows all over the UK just as they always have been. We are sorry Mr & Mrs Harris that you confused someone else with The Tricky Tykes, and if you would care to e-mail us we would be pleased to confirm whether we are still available for your show.

Message:	Hello, We saw you at the Portsmouth Show in August and were impressed at the quality of the display, the information in the commentary and the variety of dogs. We visited the Showmans Show in Newbury and you may remember we spoke to your representative from the East of England in the circus tent with the intention of booking you for our company fiesta in May next year. We were somewhat taken aback to see the display was nothing like you presented at Portsmouth. We assumed you would have the 50 dogs racing yet you said at the Showmans Show you bring 8 or 10. 10 terriers is hardly enough to keep an intelligent audience interested and you don't appear to have the big unit anymore. Not good value for money and rather disappointing. It could be an idea to change your website to explain what a show really gets.

Message:	We did so enjoy the performance on Friday. That deerhound was such a surprise. He was very amusing. So was the little poo who went up into the tube. We owned a scotty some years ago and he was wilful and stubborn and dour. Yours all appear so cheerful and gregarious. They were lovely. Good entertainment Thanks from Andrew and Anne

Message:	We loved the demonstration enormously. We decided to try it ourselves. The result was fights fights fights and fights. One poor dog ended up at the vets with a ripped tail. We tried again the following week and couldn't keep the rag on the string, the string was pulled off by the dogs, one got tangled in it and it garroted his leg. It was pulled so tight we had to get the vet to get it off while the poor dog was sedated. Oh yes and more fights. So we have abandoned that idea. How do you do it? How do you train them to be so excited yet they don't try and murder each other. What a great show. All that excitement and no injuries. You deserve a medal.

Message:	You are the perfect stress busters. We hope you will always be at Crufts for us poor showing people. We came to see your demo after being beaten in our class. It put things into prospective. The Terriers are what dogs are about. Thanks a million. You deserve your high profile. Great shot in the dog mag by the way.

Message:	Great show guys. We came in from New York to Crufts and the first thing we saw on Friday was the Tricky Tykes. Nothing matched you for the rest of the day. We have burned images of that little dog going up the tube and coming out with the prize. My wife has her image of that cute little scot grabbing the prize and skidding under the hurdle. So funny so very funny. How do you train them? Love from NY

Message:	we were very upset as we came specially to crufts on the friday to see the little terriers and we arrived too late because of the traffic. it is so disappointing. we loved the show at last years crufts. why do you have to be on so early when you are so popular? lots of people we spoke to were saying how good your team are. regards...

Message:	We were enthralled by your fabulous team at Crufts on Sunday. We had to stand to watch as there was no room. We couldn't see everything as we were at the entrance which was packed solid but we really enjoyed what we saw and we listened to it all. Pity it could not be shown on the big screen which would be helpful for those of us not lucky enough to get a seat. It is irksome to hear the crowds cheer or laugh and not see what they are looking at. We have voted you the best demo of the show.

Message:	Wonderful, family entertainment and a wonderful learning curve. We thought your demo was well presented and represented all corners of the dog scene. The commentary was very professional without being condescending as some commentaries are. Thank you for a very enjoyable and relaxing half hour.

Message:	We saw you at Crufts on Friday and we enjoyed the demonstration so much we came back on Saturday just to see you again. We enjoyed it even more as we missed the beginning on Friday as it was so early and the traffic was so bad. Thank you and the little dogs for such wonderful memories of terriers. We lost our dear jack russell last month and we were heartbroken. The one from the tricky tykes that is in the dog world newspaper looks just like him. Thanks again love from us both

Message:	We too are from the USA. We too saw you on TV here. We saw the Tricky Tykes on Friday morning and they were funnier than we could have imagined. The scotty dogs were side splittingly hilarious and when the deer hound appeared we just wept with laughter. My make up was a mess after the show. We will be back next year to Crufts which by the way is yards better than our own biggest dog show. Cheers and love to your terriers

Message:	Having seen your Tricky Tykes in past Crufts coverage here in the USA, I looked forward to seeing them when I attended Crufts 2004. They were even more fantastic than I had anticipated. The Scottie "Hovercraft Team" antics were topped only by the Scottie Rescue group and the hurdles. I was in tears watching them each day. I am still laughing about them and cheering them on in my memories, especially the older female with the graying face. What a trooper! Thank you and your Terriers for giving us so much happiness, laughter and wonderful memories! You should be a Crufts institution!

Message:	To the person who wants to race her terrier. It wouldn't be a good idea to take a pet terrier racing as the aggression might be unhandleable. The Tricky Tykes are specially trained I reckon and well trained too. I saw them at Crufts on Friday.

Message:	It was a magnificient,professional demonstration you gave at Crufts. We were enthralled. We did not intend to watch as we had seen terrier racing last summer at our local show. It was badly presented by a man calling himself Cyril Squirrell and the dogs were unruly and a little cowed. The commentary and content was terrible and the dogs were few. We were walking past the ring at Crufts and could not help hearing the cheering crowds. We were transfixed. We watched 6 or 7 scottish terriers enjoying their occupation. The commentary was clear and exciting but with correct diction and the dogs were perky. Excellent show chaps.

Message:	Stupendously funny show. We swept away the cobwebs laughing so much. We saw you on Sunday. We weren't sure about coming to Crufts but we saw you on TV and our minds were made up. We had to see the terriers live. Oh and by the way, thank you for showing our daughters the big deerhound. She was petrified of large dogs but Olly sure snuffed that fear away. You are worth a million. It was our first visit to Crufts. It's not as stuffy as we were led to believe. We very much enjoyed our day.

Message:	We saw the Tricky Tykes at Crufts on Saturday and we loved every single minute. We are serious breeders and take pride in qualifying for and competing at Crufts. The whole showing business is serious and stressful. We had heard about the Tricky Tykes Terriers from someone at last years Crufts and we are so glad we watched this year. It was like a bolt of lighting to us. We saw what dogs should be doing which is enjoying themselves. We saw the pure joy and humour in the faces of the audience. Guess what? When we didn't win our class we congratulated the winner who was most shocked. Unusual for us. We did it because we realised showing should be fun just like the fun the terriers were having. We would like to take an opportunity to thank Crufts for providing us with your team who really are a de stressing agent. It opened our eyes anyway. By the way the scottys are out of this world, so funny. The deerhound was tops too. Thank again and hope to see you next year.
