A Bit Of A Brag

[espinay2]

Took a trip down to Sunbury last week and very happy with the (somewhat unexpected) results

17 Pyrenean Mountain Dogs shown under breed specialist Mr Gunnar Jensen from Norway (Beachbears Pyreneans)

Bitch Challenge & BOB 'Rocket' Despreaux Mon Ice Bebe (bred and owned by Faye Cartledge) - From the Minor Puppy class! This was her first show out of baby puppy (not bad to get an 18 point challenge the first time you are eligible!). IMO this gorgeous girl has a big future ahead of her and fantastic that it is being recognised so young. Rocket is by Faye's Belgian import, the beautiful Grimm du Mas de Beauvoisin, from a litter sister to my boy Hamish (out of two imports from Laugtun's in Norway). Big congratualtions to Faye.

Reserve Bitch Challenge and RUBOB was my girl 'Grace' Ch Despreaux Amazing Grace from the Intermediate class.

Dog Challenge was my boy 'Hamish' Ch Despreaux Highlander - from Open Dog.

So happy with my two and have to thank everyone who helped me out on the day as I tore a ligament in my knee the day before and had enough trouble walking let alone running. And again a big thank you to Faye for breeding such lovely dogs.

Also congratulations to Vivienne James whose Norwegian import Strondafjorden's Chantec took Reserve Dog Challenge also from the Minor Puppy class.

:o Well done Espinay, great result, and what a great entry, would have been stunning to see so many together.

Lovely to see the judge being consistent through the winners.

I miss seeing the Pyrenean's up here.

Well done :o

Should have dragged myself away from my champers and come and had a look. :D :)

I did see some Pyrenean's being toileted when I did the cavs at one point.
