Most meetings take place in the summer, but the desire to meet people with similar passions makes people want to integrate the whole year.

Scottish dressing
The idea to organize a meeting usually has its origin on the Internet. Forum discussions, exchange of emails, photos, chat in chat rooms - it's no longer enough. The most important after a dog - a real, not virtual. Someone throws a password, someone else podchwyci initiative and it turns out that there is no possibility of retreat. Willing to meet arrives every day.

That's why together with a colleague decided to organize in February of this year I Torun Meeting Lovers Collie Rough and Smooth. Another is in vacation.
It would seem that the winter weather is not tuned for trips in Poland. Nothing could be further from the truth. In podtorunskim farm collie owners showed up in large numbers. Game started on the whole. First held a contest that does not require physical fitness - for the best Scottish disguise, both caregivers and their dogs.
