Successes from Australia to Canada

 

During last weekend, the successes of our Firstprizebears almost went over the whole world. Let us start in:

Brandon/Manitoba/Canada: Here, Janet Osterbauer had sent her “Mia” Firstprizebears Mia Farrow (Lärkängens at Firsticebears x Firstprizebears Helen Hunt), to the Show with Tammy. “Mia”, became Best Puppy, Best of Breed and won Group 1.

Belgium: Saturday we where at the 50st EurodogShow of Kortrijk. The judgement was in hand of Mr. Alan Jones, an Englishman, who is living in Italy since a long time and here, together with Mr. Bernini, bred the “Del Narciso” Beardies. Eighteen Beardies had been entered. In total more than 3000 dogs. The opening was done by Nette Huyskens with her “Witse”.  He was alone in the Youth Class, received an Excellent1 and later became Best Youth dog against a Bitch from the Youth Class.

“Schoko” started in the Intermediate Class, but did not have her day and didn’t do what we had expected her to do. It resulted in a Excellent 2nd place

On Sunday another show was held, with also 3000 entered dogs, but some different Beardies and other judges. The Englishman, Mr. Felix Cosme was supposed to judge, but was replaced by Mrs. Vermeiere. For both judges we had not enetered. But, our Mieke and Roland Mussche where here with their 16 months old “Firstprizebears Le Hermann” (Lärkängens at Firsticebears x Firstprizebears Donna Summer). He won the Res-CACIB and Res-CAC. As the winning dog is already Champion, the full total of points will go to Herman. Thank you Joke Bijster who took the photo of “Herman”.

 

Switserland: Geneva, double show. Fernando and Suny have had their “Firstprizebears Kim Karnes” shown here. She won under the German judge, Mr. Frankenberger, who wrote a beautiful judging report. Something to frame. She received the CAC and the Res-CACIB.

Spain: In Talavera, the yearly Champion Show was held. Here the Englishman Barry Croft judged. Our Superstar “Firstprizebears Enfield” was shown here, but unfortunately Mr. Croft did not recognize what juwel he got presented here. He became Excellent 2.
