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.

Message: A great show. The funniest thing we
have seen for many a while.
it was well worth the visit to the castle just
to see your
terriers. We laughed for hours after. Great
medicine for the
blues. You and the jousting made the show
thoroughly worthwhile.

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.

find you. It was
so spread out we could have missed you. Hope
not, better to
think you weren't there than you were and we
missed you. The
little dogs were the funniest thing we have
ever seen. That
grey one going up the pipe was side splitting.
If you remember

So funny. Thank you for entertaining us.

Message: Yours are pussycats compared to mine.
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.

broke it and ripped up the appointmet diary.
All in a flash.

Message: Hi,
We watched your marvellous display on Tuesday
and we were
enthralled. How clever to have something so
different at our
show. We wholeheartedly enjoyed every minute of
it. 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. We hope you will be back next year and
we hope the
sound will be audible.
Thank you for wonderful entertainment.

We all voted the Tricky Tykes as the best and
most enjoyable
part of the Southsea show. We come away from
the arena with
big smiles on our faces. Even my miserable fart
of a husband
laughs. Do you have a video? Perhaps I could
keep him laughing
by playing it at home. My friend Pat laughed so
much she fell
off the bale of straw.Could you get softer
stuff next year as
it was prickly on the old bum.

the jumps were very funny. We just had to tell
you how super
the terrier show was. We are coming back on
Sunday just to see
them again. It was also nice to see the care
you went to for
the dogs. 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

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.

the Tricky Tikes terriers must take our vote.

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

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

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.

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

Message: I saw you at the Showmans Show and was
very impressed with what
you offer to a show. It is almost an
afternoon's entertainment
in it's own right. It was a pleasure to speak
to an expert in
the field.It was plain to me you were in a
different league to
the people in the tent and there was no
confusion on my part.
Now I may have a few shows in Yorkshire for you
in 2006 and I
will be in touch about it at next years show. I
would need one
of each of your packages and the longnetting as
my shows are
based on game and country style with the
general public in
attendance. I want no truck with gimmicks like
dolls on dogs
like I was offered by your rivals. I want
terrier racing.
Have a good 2005.

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.

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.

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.

whole showing
business is serious and stressful. We had heard
about the
Tricky Tykes Terriers from someone at last

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

Message: We thought you might like to know our
success story thanks to
you. Our 8 year old daughter Penny was mauled
very badly when
she was 2. She has been scared stiff of dogs
since. Nothing we
have done has helped. She has been to theraphy,
puppy classes,
the vets, you name it. She saw your dogs at
Crufts and for the
first time since that horrid incident she
laughed at the terrier
dogs. She actually laughed. We were thrilled.
We just sat there
and stared in disbelief. The next day we sought
you out and a
very kind lady took us to see the dogs and
showed us a little
one so pretty and with big eyes. Our daughter,
scared at
first, actually touched a dog again. The lady
was so very kind,
she spoke to our daughter in a better way than
any therapist has
and eventually, Penny touched and then held the
beautiful
friendly dog. We were in tears as the little
dog licked Penny's
face. The happy ending is we now have a dog
chosen by Penny and
she looks just like the little brown and black
terrier that
cured our daughter's fears. Thank you from the
bottom of our
hearts and thank Crufts Dog Show for you being
there. A
million pounds would not buy what you have done
for Penny. It
has made our family complete to have our
daughter happy again
and to have a wonderful little dog in the
house.
An eternally grateful Gary Jane and Penny

poor dog. We

was thinking
about the dog going up into the tube with only
its tail sticking
out and started laughing out loud. The stall

We had to stand on tiptoe

start to finish. It
is a pity there was not more visibility. The
idea of a screen by
the ring is a good one. There sure were a lot
of people there
wanting a look at the dogs racing. You sure
were popular. We

there but
nothing as great as your team. Well done guys.

Message: You gave us a superb display which was
very enjoyable. The
trouble is we could not see it properly due to
all the crowds of
people trying to see you. We came over to the
special events
area on Saturday especially to see the Tricky
Tykes. We thought
we arrived in plenty of time but could not get
through the
people . There were people climbing up the back
of the seats
and people were pushing each other in the
entrances trying to
watch your dogs running. We were very
disappointed not to be
able to see it all. We could hear the roars of
laughter but
cold only get glimpses of the dogs. May I be
cheeky and suggest
that you should be put on more than once so
everyone could have
a chance to see. Would it be feasable to have a
screen near the
ring so those who aren't lucky enough to get
close enough could
see what is happening. We will come again next
year and we hope
that we can see the Tricky tykes without the
struggle. If you
could have seen what was going on outside you
would see people
were pushing to get a glimpse of you and they
were becoming a
bit terse when they could come no closer.
What we saw was a great show which was the
worth the hassle even
though it did leave myself and my wife
exhausted. Andrew Walters
