OCTOBER 3rd, 2008 - EUROPEAN DOG SHOW, BUDAPEST

OZZY - Open class (5 dogs): Exc 1. - CAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - this is his 2nd ticket for the Hungarian Champion title. Needs 2 more.
REMI - Champion class (5dogs): Exc 2. - Res.CAC & Res.CACIB - this making him Reserve EUROPEAN WINNER!!!!!

Oh my God - what a day again!!!!! Both of my boys had a really strong class and both of them did a grand job.

The breed was judged by Mrs Penny Williams of Bournehouse kennels from the UK - thank you!

This was a great finish to Remi's show carreer in adult classes - as he is turning 8 soon he will make appearances in Veteran classes from next year.
And also a good start to Ozzy's adult carreer - he is just taking Remi's place in the classes and we hope he will follow in his "big brother's" foot prints as well.

Photos soon.
