We have had two shows recently. Firstly we attended the 1st Southern Flatcoated Retriever Club Open Show in Hampshire. This was such a lovely Christmas show, with a very purple christmas tree and ribbons (thanks to Gemma Jacobs !) Such a relaxed atmosphere, and a very enjoyable day. Judge was Sharon Pinkerton of Bareve GWP fame. We were thrilled that Jive took the Post Graduate Bitch class, congratulations to all the winners.
Secondly this weekend we attended LKA Championship show, the last Ch show of the year, with judge Ann Kilminster (Withybed). She had a fantastic entry of 160 making 180 entries. I was very proud of Madison's son Oaksenriver Rimac who won the Junior Dog class, we are very proud of Mac ! (or Mini Moo as he is sometimes known !) Jive then went into the Post Graduate Bitch class, which was the largest class for the breed on the day, and she made the cut, but then went unplaced. We had a lovely day, with some friends doing very well, in particular Kelly Holland and Alex Webster who's bitch Sivan won the CC and BOB. Congratulations to all the winners at LKA, have a fabulous Christmas and a very Happy New Year !!!
