»» 31/12-08 Summary of the year 2008!
We are glad to announce our second CC and CACIB winner from our second litter: S. Black Spring Rising “Bell”! Out of the “Four Seasons” litter only two out of four puppies have been shown and they both have CC's here in Sweden!
 |
Roffe and Mozes also have sired their first litters this year, with wonderful puppies as result!
During the year the BOB and BIS ribbons more or less fell from the sky over Qita and the same happened for Chibi in the puppy class. Qita started the year of with a bang by becoming BOB, BOG 1 and BIS 2 in Finland and through her first 8 shows she took 6 BOB! After that 2 more BOB, 1 BOS and BIS 2 and BIS 3 at Swedish Toy Dog Association shows! Chibi swept her competitors of their feet by taking 5 straight BPIB in five shows and 3 times Best Puppy In Show out of four finales! This at shows arranged by the Swedish Kennel Club, the Swedish Toy Dog Association and the Swedish Chinese Crested Club, don't think anyone have managed that ever!
Highlights of the year 2008:
- Qita BOG & BIS 2 in Finland Tornio
- Bell 2:nd best bitch with CC & CACIB with mum Qita as BOB
- Moze BOS & CC in Finland Rovaniemi
- Chibi CC in Sundsvall (Only shown two times at championship level)

I want to send a special thanks to Heli and Kjell, Pudervippans Kennel, for the warm welcoming and the splendid tours around their home and in Vasa! I also had the possibility to see two beautiful male puppies, Zhannel's Xcalibur och Zhannel's Xtravagant, sired by Sirocco Nenya The Ring Of Water “Roffe”. It will be interesting to follow their development.

Bell (S. Black Spring Rising) and Jennifer did a nice performance first time out in the open class and was placed as third with Ck/Ecxellent.
Qita (Ch BIS Nikita) was in a good mood and strutted her stuff all the way to best champion bitch with Ck/Ecxellent, best bitch and finally Best Of Breed! Judge Marja Kurittu. But that's not all. In the BIS competition she became Best In Show 3 under judge Phyllis Aigner-Poduscka. This was Qitas third BOB and second BIS placement this year at a show arranged by the Swedish Toydog Association!

Chibi is strutting in to her fourth and last puppy final ever and gives the judge Kurt Nilsson her most charming look ever. Of course he can't resist her and he shows her to the first place, BEST PUPPY IN SHOW!
