Rottshowgirl Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Is there anything that the dog world will not bitch about! It appears that it is now necessary to have a time clock at ringside and clock on and off as you exhibit just so someone can claim to have the first. Time has nothing to do with it. Poor old Perth has no chance of being first at anything as they have a time disadvantage. Tasmania has no allbreeds show this weekend. It does not matter. It is an achievement to get any title (with competition) and you should be happy to have a dog that has won enough to be a Supreme. Sadly there are many great dogs of the past who more than met the requirements for Grand and Supreme titles but will forever just be plain old champion. Fight about who was first all you like but it really just means you were lucky or able to show at a show midweek or a show where it had a small entry and got to your breed alphabetically before another show reached your breeds judging. All this discussion does is show the dogworld at its absolute worse. Like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Megz- Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) I agree with dogs from the past getting it anyway. Edited July 7, 2012 by -Megz- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blakbelgian Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 The first Schipperke in OZ would be Gr Ch Beadale Little Captain, went from SA to Alice Springs (as they have done several years before) and got BOB then went onto Best In SHOW :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Stunning boy & deserves it.

There are many in my breed that are worthy of this title that are either steralised or deceased and will never gain it. One in particular his three sons have achieved this title this weekend. Congrats to their owner and breeder. Congrats to everyone that has achieved this title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't read the rules regarding the title, but would a dog be able to get a neuter challenge and still qualify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bugger for those that have since been desexed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spotted Devil Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 9 Dalmatians thus far is the tally I've been given. Wow! Congratulations to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparkyTansy Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Congratulations to everyone who received the title this weekend gone. I think 4 Weimaraners gained their title over the weekend. not sure on the other groups but an English Setter, Gordon Setter and 2 x GSP gained their titles in Group 3. :cheer: for all the very worthy dogs!!

Blakbelgian Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I know of One Schipperke in SA, one in QLD and two in Vic that gained their Supremes on the weekend. Looks like Canine councils will be busy making new pedigrees etc in the next couple of weeks. I feel for the person that does these only at the end of the month at VCA.

Salukifan Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 But isn't it wonderful seeing the worthy 'oldies' coming out to gain that ever special CC!! Personally I don't think think they should have to. Any dog of veteran status should have been exempted from having to gain a CC after 1 July. Any Supreme of that age that had sired or whelped a Champion would have got my vote, desexed or not. All the titles in the world don't matter a toss if the dog cannot produce quality in the next generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
