Well done to Anastasiia and Amos at Crufts
March 2026
Having qualified in December 2025 to compete at Crufts, Anastasiia and Amos' big day finally arrived last weekend, as they stepped out onto the green carpet in the Young Kennel Club finals. Cheered on by several Cranbourners, the pair ran an incredible agility course, coming in 4th place overall. Looking at how he ran, you would not believe that Amos is almost 12 years old and had half his rear foot amputated several years ago following an injury. This will, unfortunately, be Amos' last Crufts as he will shortly be retiring from competing, but what a way to end his agility career! For Anastasiia, she will be looking to qualify again next year, this time competing with Bean.
Qualifying for World Champs
February 2026
Congratulations go to Anastasiia, one of Cranbourne's members, who has qualified for the Junior Open World Championships in Mannheim, Germany in July. While she lives in the UK now, Anastasiia will be proud to represent her home country of Ukraine. Of course, Ukraine will now have a distinct advantage over the UK team with her on their team! We wish her, Delta Bean, and Chloë well with their training as they prepare for this incredible opportunity!
A personal story of recovery
February 2026
Martha, one of our regulars at Cranbourne, had an incident in a ring in April 2025 which knocked her confidence to the point where she found going into the ring stressful. Knowing how much she enjoys agility, her handler, Alan, has spent the last 10 months working with his instructors to implement a strategy that, with the support of judges, allowed him to slowly rebuild at a pace that suited Martha. Their patience and partnership has paid off and she's back with her usual gusto and enthusiasm, much to everyone's delight!
Cranbourne's own makes it to Crufts
December 2025
One of our own, Anastasiia, has qualified to compete at Crufts in March. To get there has meant incredible hard work, training with Amos, a German Spitz Klein, and competing around the country in qualifying rounds. We are all incredibly proud of them both and will be cheering them on when they appear at the NEC in Birmingham.
