Had the pleasure of taking Blazin' Bomber along to visit a local primary school recently. What was originally going to be one class of 30 or so kids became five classes and 150 kids!

Bomber was a super star and seeing the kids interact with him and talk about him with other kids was one of the most satisfying things I've done in the sport.

Here's the story and an excellent video from the day - EXTERNAL LINK

Michael,
Firstly, I think this is absolutely fantastic and a great initiative to get out there and share our animals.
Huge congrats to you and Tammy.
This is exactly the kind of coverage we need in the mainstream media.

Interesting quote..."Bomber was a super star and seeing the kids interact with him and talk about him with other kids was one of the most satisfying things I've done in the sport."

Almost humbling, isn't it.

Well done.

Thanks Michael. The dogs, and the people who prepare them, are the sport's biggest asset and everyone needs to do their bit promote the breed and the sport in the best light possible.

It was great to see, it also gives the kids a chance to see how well our dogs are treated before their minds are poisoned by lefties.

Great initiative.
Perhaps some mainstream media involvement in the future.
