April & May 2017 Update

Guelph & District Kennel Club - April 22, 2017

We made the trek to the Guelph show for one day on April 22, 2017 with Hunter, Vedder and Molson.

All-Breed Show
     (Entry [11 total]: 2 class boys, 6 class girls, 3 champion boys, 0 champion girls)

Vedder earned Winner's Bitch, Best of Winners, Best Puppy in Breed and Best of Opposite Sex for a 3 point major win against an entry of 8 class Weimaraners.  This put her total at 7 points towards her championship.

Hunter earned Winner's Dog for his third point towards his Championship.  This also marked the debut of his co-owner Lisa in the Conformation ring.  She did a great job with him!

Molson debuted in the Veteran's ring, and we had lots of fun but did not advance.

Limited Breed - Sporting Breed Show
     (Entry [7 total]: 2 class boys, 4 class girls, 1 champion boys, 0 champion girls)

Vedder earned Reserve Winner's Bitch, in an entry of 4 class girl Weimaraners.  Although it was not worth points, we were very proud of how she showed.

Hunter earned Winner's Dog for his fourth point towards his Championship.
 
Victoria County Kennel Club - April 29/30, 2017

Against a much smaller entry the following weekend, Bronwyn and Vedder traveled to Lindsay for the Victoria County show.  The entry for both days was 0-2-1-0, meaning there were two class girls and one specials (champion) boy.  On Saturday, Vedder earned Winner’s Bitch, Best of Opposite Sex and Best Puppy in Breed for her 8th point.  On Sunday, Vedder showed like a little rock star and earned Best of Breed and Best Puppy in Breed, over the Champion to finish her Canadian Championship with a bang under Judge Lynda Saranchuk.  She was just under 9 months of age.  (Photo below).
