was diagnosed with Lymphoma three weeks ago and despite some apparent

remission with chemotherapy collapsed on Wednesday and died at the Vets

shortly after.  She was about 10 days short of her eighth birthday and I am

She won a very large ‘Non-Sporting’ class and then went on to win BIS!

We were all very pleased as this was her first attempt at showing.

On to the more serious stuff in October!

 

Darlington Ch Show was not a lot of fun! 

The heavy rain over the last few weeks had left the ground very soggy –

we had to be pushed out of the mud twice and finally towed out.

Whilst helping to push someone else out early in the day

we all got sprayed with mud from head to foot by the spinning tyres.

Anyway, Whisper, Bergeau Rainbow Art, was 3rd in Junior, 

Meazelles’, Bergeau Windwalker, followed her to be 3rd in Postgraduate,

‘Dazzle’, Bergeau Dazzled by the Flame, however won Limit.

They say mud is good for the complexion!

 

I have often felt Richmond was a lucky show for me, and boy did that get proved this year!

I had missed paying for the car park when entering, and had to pay

as we arrived – we were given a cloakroom ticket number 111.

I jokingly said that was an omen that we would win three 1st places!

Remus’, Bergeau Paint with Matisse for Everquest, was placed 1st in Limit

and then went on to win the CC and BOB.  He was pulled out in the Group too!

Whisper, Bergeau Rainbow Art, despite her lack of coat, won Junior

and to my enormous surprise won the bitch CC.

both achieved their CSAU and TAN qualifications, but were not to the judge’s taste.

with their homebred Groenendael Chilli, Ch Xanova Femme Noir, winning BIS,
