Ladies Kennel Association Championship Dog Show
13th December 2009
Judge : Mr Rodney Oldham
Breed : Dogue De Bordeaux
1st Place Dogue De Bordeaux Puppy Dog (14 entries)
Reserve Best Puppy In Breed
Another first place for Hugo today in a very strong field at the final championship show of the year.
This takes the tally so far to 6 firsts in 9 shows so we are more than happy with the result.
Not the most enjoyable show we have attended to date with Hugo (thanks in part to a rather blatant display of poor sportsmanship by one handler in our class) no need to go into details, if you were there then you would have witnessed this for yourself.
Hugo still took first place but was just too unsettled for the best of sex or best puppy in breed classes....having diva strops in both finals that Elton John would have been proud of….
However, a big well done to all winners, especially Andrew from Soultime who won BPIB with Eazy, her last outing as a puppy being 12 months to the day, so a fitting way to move up to Junior, well done mate, she deserved it.
Many thanks to the judge Rodney Oldham who was superb on the day and for thinking so highly of Hugo and keeping the amazing start to his show career going.
Happy Christmas everyone and all the best for the New Year from us here at Bourgeoisie.
See you in the ring soon….
