A little about the first "Granardal",  Leaveslake True Lies At Granardal JD - "Deccy"

Deccy, pedigree name Leaveslake True Lies At Granardal (JD) is a liver spotted male and he was born on 1st January 2005. 

Deccy was shown for a few years and is the first Dalmatian to be awarded the Junior Diploma, and also won three Green Stars in his time, and many other wins at Championship and Open show level. He's a wonderful companion and reasonably obedient - well, for a Dalmatian!

 
On 16th April 2011 I took him to the Irish Carriage Dog trials in Kildare for a day out and decided to run him in the Instinct test. Despite being thrilled to have a day out without Taz around and acting like a puppy, tail going full speed all day, he got the hang of it eventually so we came home with a certificate with his name on! Just goes to show, you CAN teach an old dog new tricks!
