Solei - Best Veteran in Show! 16:32

Temelora Soul Mate - Best Veteran in Show
How proud am I :-)

Went to Chepstow & District Canine Society on Sunday. I had entered Solei, and Lottie - a puppy I'm currently looking after for friends. I can count on one hand the number of times I had shown Solei this year, but the AV Toy judge was a breed specialist who I knew didn't dislike him, so I decided to give him one last outing of 2013!

What a day - Lottie won Best Puppy in Breed, and then won Puppy Group 1!! Solei won AV Toy Veteran, and then went Best Veteran in Show!

He showed so well, and loved the big ring and really moved out (not bad for a 9 year old :-)). Never in my wildest dreams did I ever expect a Best Veteran in Show at an all breed show...going to take an awfully long time to come down!

Also - seeing as I am still failing on the blogging front - thrilled with Ria who (at the end of October) got Best of Breed at South Western Gundog and then shortlisted down to the last 6 for Best in Show. Unfortunately for us, the show has decided to only award BIS and RBIS and no longer BIS3 and BIS4....which was rather gutting as she was being strongly considered for RBIS and I think would've been in with a good shot at BIS3 or 4!
