I'm never without my dog. They would be in every corner of the house, and my wife will not allow me to have any more than that. But I have lots of dogs. I love the dogs. I breed them. I always have a puppy coming. And I show dogs. I show German shepherds.
I was planning to go into law or politics. I was well known for my public speaking. I went to an all-girl boarding school with uniforms. It was very posh for someone like me who came from a world where my parents showed beagles and sold dog products out of a yellow caravan.
I have two poodles - I'm a poodle person.
The majority of border collie owners and breeders don't want to have anything to do with the show ring.
Few targets of ridicule are as easy to hit as owners and handlers of competitive show dogs.
I'm a huge dog nut - giant, giant.
I used to breed poodles. I liked them because they were fluffy and so cute - and honestly, they make a lot of money when you sell them!
I would overhear these conversations of people who show purebred dogs. They spoke about them as if they were their children.
I am a dog in the sport.
I'm very passionate about my two Dobermans, Stella and Mr Jonty. I go on and on and on about them, and people have to tell me to shut up before I get out pictures of them.
