HOT OFF THE PRESS.
MARCH
A good start to the month with Disney taking JUNIOR IN GROUP, Lira BABY IN GROUP
and Claudia AUST BRED IN GROUP all on the same weekend! Since gaining his title, Disney
has been unbeaten in his class and has been taking CC at the majority of shows.
Maloney and Julie have had a good trot taking some nice CC’s and BOB's since he turned 6 mths
old. Maloney’s brother Raffa is taking the show ring by storm with 3 x BOB wins already
from as many appearances in the Minor Class. He also went MINOR IN SHOW at the Tasmanian
Toy Dog Club and MINOR IN GROUP the next day at an All Breeds show. Raffa finished the
month with a BOB & MINOR IN GROUP yet again.
Lira grabbed another BABY IN GROUP and at her next appearance and went BOB over
several Group winners. She has such sweet expression and wonderful shape/size. Her sister Tila
is also knocking on the door and has been RUBOB at her first appearances in the Minor
Class. I am sure Maxine is having lots of fun with her! Siblings Disney and Melody both took
another JUNIOR IN GROUP award on the same weekend. Lira finished the month with BOB &
MINOR IN GROUP. This little girl already has 20 pts in 2 weeks out of Baby Class! Claudia
also took out another AUST BRED IN GROUP
Newcomer Maya has found her legs and took a very nice BOB win over many Group winners.
She has developed nicely since her arrival and is well on her way to her Aust title.
Up north Britney has been waiting in the wings for the show season to start and took out BEST
IN GROUP/JUNIOR IN GROUP on her debut! Proving it was no accident, she received the nod
for RUNNER-UP IN GROUP/JUNIOR IN GROUP at her next show and the day after one better by
going all the way to BEST IN SHOW!!
It's been a long time since a PIED IG took BIS in this country and she is still
only a youngster. She has now qualified for the QLD Dog Of The Year finals. I couldn’t
be more happier for Megan and her success. I wonder what else this little girl has in store for
us? Now that she is a winner of an All Breeds BIS and RUBIS, as well as a Toy Specialty
BIS winner! For the last show of the month, Britney takes a nice BOB at an All
Breeds Show and RUBIG/JUNIOR IN SHOW at an Open Show. We are proud to see other people
winning with our dogs, not just ourselves!
We will have a busy month ahead between babies and showing. If you are interested in a quality
show puppy and would like to join our team, feel free to contact us. Some very promising
puppies are available to genuine homes.
FEBRUARY
What a start for the month! Our newly crowned CH Disney took BEST IN GROUP and
RUNNER-UP IN SHOW / JUNIOR IN SHOW in a hot line-up at Erskine Park! The next day
his half sister Claudia went RUNNER-UP IN GROUP / AUST BRED IN GROUP, so it was a
weekend of celebrations. Melody also strutted her stuff down the South Coast to take
JUNIOR IN GROUP in the capable hands of Julie.
Baby Raffa headed down South to make his own name, and was awarded back-to-back
BABY IN GROUP's his first weekend out! It is great to see judges appreciating his
black seal colour and his attitude to spare. The same weekend saw Lira take BABY IN GROUP
in extremely wet conditions, she was a real trooper!
A week later the same pair excelled again, Raffa taking two BABY IN GROUP's/BABY IN SHOW
at Open Shows and Lira took BABY IN GROUP in Sydney. Down in Melbourne, Maloney also took
BABY IN GROUP and Disney finished the month with another JUNIOR IN GROUP.
See all the youngsters "alive" on their personal pages.
JANUARY
The New Year certainly started with a bang! Britney and Megan had their first outing together since B
returned home to QLD and was awarded her first BIS at a Toy Specialty gaining her CHAMPION
TITLE at the same time! She also added 2 x JUNIOR IN SHOW awards to her already staggering
tally.
Not to be outdone by her famous sister, from a repeat mating, Tila and Maxine made
their debut for BABY IN SHOW and RES BABY IN SHOW at the two Toy Specialties.
Both girls are red pieds and eye catching on the move. Look out 2009 !
Melody is the 2nd to finish in her litter, adding yet another Champion to Percy's list. She also took
JUNIOR IN GROUP the day she finished her title.
Claudia scooped the pool at Albion Park and finished the day with her first RUNNER-UP BEST IN SHOW
award. May there be many more to come! Disney took a nice BEST OF BREED and
JUNIOR IN GROUP a week later and gained his final points to title, joining his sisters
to make it three CH's from the Percy-Morgan litter.
