A TRIO of East Lothian pups proved a big hit at Crufts as all three picked up awards.

Deerhound siblings Ivy, Tam and Torrin are only 18 months but showed off lots of star quality on their first visit to the prestigious dog show.

Their mum Laika, who lives in Humbie, had also qualified for Crufts but was not able to attend the event herself because she was in season, but her owner Anne McAlpine was there to catch up with the pups and their new owners as they made their debut.

Ivy (Humbiehounds Jaz it up), Tam (Humbiehounds Velvet Tattie) and Torrin (Humbiehounds Pirnmill at Coronach) were all placed in their groups, with Ivy coming fourth in the junior bitch class, and Tam and Torrin taking third and fourth place in the junior dog class respectively.

Anne said: “I was absolutely thrilled they qualified for Crufts and to watch them in the ring on the day.

“They are all stars and did their mum proud.”
