WHAT DOG ACTIVITIES DO YOU TAKE PART IN?

None at the moment as my dog is quite old

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A YKC MEMBER?

I think about three years now

HOW MANY DOGS DO YOU OWN?

Only one but I would love more!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT DOGS?

Even though they can't talk they are always there for you & comfort you when you are upset. They also stand by your side & don't care if you are wealthy or not, you are their master & they will always be loyal to you & love you.

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT IN THE YKC?

When I came second in the kids group of YKC's Artist of the Year competition as it was my first year entering & it made me really proud!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT THE YKC?

It gives you a chance to really bond with your dog & be proud of them. Also, you have the amazing Activity Weekends & have loads of fun taking part in events!

DO YOU HAVE ANY WORDS OF ADVICE FOR YKC MEMBERS NEW TO THE WORLD OF DOGS?

Always remember the safe & sound routine & never give up, you may not win a certain competition but keep trying because one day you will win & you will feel so happy that you didn't stop!

CAN YOU SHARE A FAVOURITE / FUNNY MEMORY OF YOUR DOG?

Yes, it was around two years ago & we had just cleaned our glass back door, it was very sunny that day & my dog, Ginger,wanted to sunbathe but he didn't realise the door was closed & walked straight into it! I laughed a lot and made sure I gave him a big stroke!

HOW HAS YOUR DOG MADE A DIFFERENCE TO YOU OR YOUR FAMILY LIFE?

When I was little I was very scared of dogs but he turned that around & showed me how amazing dogs really are. He has also given our family lots of fun & joy.

WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO TAKE YOUR DOG?

To Coundon Wood, it's a big park where we can let him off lead & let him be a true Greyhound, it's also great fun watching him race about
