dogs behave well in public and in private. Working naturally, on the left and right sides, loose leads and tight relationships are the goals.

Today I once again have the task of conveying the news of the passing of one of our TDR® family, Chris Thompson. Although she had been ill for a while, her loss last week still came as a shock to her friends.

Chris was just the sweetest lady, a warm, friendly person whose smile and giggle brightened any room. When I first visited the island, she went out of her way to ensure I felt welcome among the One to One crew, bringing me numerous cups of tea and ensuring that the cakes were ‘Jacky friendly’.

Chris had an amazing bond with her mischievous little Jackadoodle boy Smudge, who never ceased to give us a laugh with his funny little antics. They worked so well as a team and progressed their way through the levels achieving their Puppy Championship in 2017, Level 1 Championship in 2018 and PL2 Championship in 2022. They were well on the way to their L2 Championship when Chris fell ill in 2023. The team also gathered 3 AOEs along the way- no mean feat!
It was always a joy to watch Smudge gazing up adoringly at Chris as he bounced around the ring; they were just the perfect match.

The last time I saw Chris we had a giggle as I remarked that her and Smudge really epitomised a ‘dog like its owner’- in character, certainly not appearance!

Chris, you were much loved by your TDR® family and will be remembered with huge fondness and a smile; RIP our friend.
We send our condolences to her family and a big hug to her Smudge.
