A WEEK after the Crufts semi finals, Carole Dodson of Forest Oak Farm says she is still on Cloud nine after securing great results.

Carole and her dog Clifton have qualified for both heelwork to music and freestyle, so will be very busy perfecting their routines for the finals at Crufts on March 7 and 8.

The semi finals bring together the best of all the competitors to battle it out for the coveted 10 places at Crufts.

Carole walked away with two of those places and Forest Oak Dog Training Club student Steph Rendall took another place in the Crufts Freestyle Finals.

Carole's daughter Michelle and her dog Devon took the win in the Advanced Heelwork to Music Class at the same competition. Forest Oak DTC trainer Penny Draper also scored a second place at Intermediate level.

Students Jane Ambrey and Tally have qualified for the YKC (Young Kennel Club) over-12s freestyle event. The pair have been working hard to polish the routine they first did in August. Jane (14) only started working with Tally last year and qualified for Crufts at her first attempt.
