Leeds Championship Show

Leeds greeted us with a beautiful sunny day and we had a superb show.
Loki - Twice As Nice Seven Monkey Fury (Imp SWE) won Junior and showed his best yet on grass where he is usually way too over exhuberant lol - see video below
Joker - Let Me Be The One Of Angel's Legacy As Casacavallo (Imp NLD) won a very strong limit class which are thrilled about.  He is still only 15 months old, has only been shown in Limit 3 times and won every one of them, one with a CC and one with a RCC also.
Kiddy was very hyper which gave him a second in open and Klasi won Veteran.
The challenge certainly proved challenging as all my boys are mummies boys and despite the able assistance of Kate and Kerry to help  me, all three dogs did not show their best and I certainly picked the wrong one to handle as Klasi got considered for the CC but lost it on the last go around.  Disappointed the judge didn't ask me to swap dogs so a lesson learnt for the future for sure!
However Klasi did win BVIB and then rose to the occasion in the group and Topped the toy group under Ernie Patterson so we are still beyond over the moon with this massive accomplishment!

East of England Championship Show

Lovely day at our local Champ show, so we decided to take 5 dogs.  Loki was 3rd in a very strong Junior class and showed much better without being on grass!  We had two dogs in limit with Monkey coming 3rd and Qualifying for Crufts 2017 and then Joker winning the class and taking the RCC which we are thrilled about.  He has only been shown in limit twice and has 1CC and 1 RCC from this class!  Kiddy was 2nd in Open and then Klasi won Veteran, BVIP and then Toy Veteran Group 4.  We were so thrilled with this as had a goal of a veteran group place this year and he nailed it at his first time back in the ring, in his first veteran!  Huge thanks to breed judge Jill Peak and also Veteran Judge Sue Bird!
Super day for us and only 5 mins home!
