Bella was bought as a pet for me by my husband.
**Bella has received her first GREEN STAR (10 point Major) at the prestigious Munster Circuit in Ireland. This is the first step towards her IRISH CHAMPION TITLE. Check out her results page for more info on this award **
I had no intention of showing her, but after chatting to a few people within the breed, they convinced me to give it a go. I wish to thank those who have given me encouragement to continue & enjoy this hobby.
Like me, Bella was new to showing, and we have learned alot over the last 2 1/2 years together. Often having a few laughs along the way. Bella has really enjoyed showing & without her own little 'saintly' ways i wouldn't have found it so enjoyable.
Bella has done very well, often winning her class, and in 2003 she was Reserve Saint Bernard Dog of the Year at the Eastern Saint Bernard Club.
She has also participated in Agility, which she enjoyed. Her photos showing this appeared at Crufts in 2002!
Bella has qualified for Crufts in 2003, 2004, 2005 & ** NOW 2006!!!**
She also gained her Stud Book number in 2005 under judge Mr Terry Thorn for which we thank!
Bella also accompanies my son Jonathan in Junior Handling competition at open show & Championship show level, which they have both done very well in.
Bella is very special to me, we have become very close, she is more than I could ever ask for in a pet & companion.
