 Martini International All Breed Championship Dog Show – Groningen – The Netherlands –
Saturday 5th March  - breed judge : Eddie Webster ( Benjcroft) UK

Beethoven of the Hellacious Acres  achieved 2nd place in the Junior Dog class.

   

Lolkje Efde’s Ramchaine Musketeer was graded ‘excellent’ but unplaced in the strong junior dog class.

Lolkje Efde’s Porthos of the Hellacious Acres achieved 2nd place in the Open Dog class

 

Now out of puppy , our own Ramchaine MonkeyNut competed in her first junior class at the tender age of 10 months achieving her first ‘excellent’ grade -  she still looked a real baby against the older more mature bitches in this super quality entry, and had a great time in the ring socializing  and meeting lots of people!!

 ( Sh. Ch. Lochtaymor King of Diamonds ex Multi Ch. Remington Requisite of Ramchaine) 

    

    

Vogue was rather over exuberant and ultra lively today with playmate Jaq as part of the show team too, she decided to cavort around and jump about and hardly kept her four feet on the ground or in order! She decided today she was not going to take showing seriously and just enjoy herself and have fun …. which she did!!!

 

 CRUFTS – NEC – Birmingham – UK -  10th March 2011 

Bitch judge : Henric Fryckstrand (Dewmist) Sweden   ~   Dog Judge : Pat Tuck (Tamsbrook) England

Gundog Day at Crufts this year was on the Thursday – an awkward day for us as Bart had to work on both the Wednesday & Friday and weekend ….  Not wanting to miss it we decided the only way to do it was to travel before and after the show catching the midnight ferries each way and driving through the night !!  … madness ...tiring … but fun!!  It was great to catch up with so many friends again.

International Sh Ch / Dutch / German/ VDH/ Lux / Swe  Champion Martha of the Hellacious Acres &  International & UK Sh Ch / Dutch / German/ VDH Champion Barnum of the Hellacious Acres
both had a yearlong break from showing  – so they were rather lively, full of enthusiasm and happy to be back into the show ring !! 

Martha was in the  first class to be judged of the day – ‘Veteran Bitch’ at 8.30am!!  A strong class of 30 exhibits, she did us proud gaining the Reserve place and enjoying every minute of it.

 


Int. Sh Ch / Dutch / German/ VDH/ Lux / Swe  Champion Martha of the Hellacious Acres

Also in the Veteran class and achieving 2nd place was  Vogue’s mum Ramchaine Enchanting for Velvenya ( Xanthos Fletcher Christian JW  ex Multi Ch. Remington Requisite of Ramchaine) belonging to Sue & Peter Francis and handled by Sue Gray –  in top form,  she moved with great drive, precision and style & free stood and wagged to an advantage.

 

Beryl & Joe Stokes’ Ramchaine Ilyssia at Jobeka ( Ch. Gunhills Game Master JW ex Multi Ch. Remington Requisite of Ramchaine ) was 5th in the super Limit Bitch class.

 

Our own Dutch/ Lux/ VDH Champion Velvenya Vogue of Ramchaine JW, NJK, LJK, DJK was rather young to be in the Open bitch class at only 2 ½ years of age, she showed and moved with her usual abounding energy & exuberance and was shortlisted to the last cut of a wonderful class of top quality bitches.  

   

    

1st in the Open Bitch class was Malcolm & Anita’s Sh. Ch. Ramchaine Green Glow by Fenwood JW    ( Sh. Ch. Erinderry Just the Ticket from Bluewaters JW ex Multi Ch. Remington Requisite of Ramchaine)  - every inch a star - she looked totally  stunning and showed like a dream….. also achieving the Reserve Challenge Certificate for the second year running.

 

Last year at Crufts Barnum was shortlisted into the last 8 in the Open Dog class - in a super entry of 28 dogs - of which 12 were UK Show Champions and 10 were Overseas Champions …..
This year the magnificent Open Class consisted of 18 males – of which 16 were Champions!   Barnum showed  with super attitude and moved with his usual  power , was again shortlisted and then went on to achieve 4th  place. We are very proud of our special boy!!

Sunday 3rd April – International All Breed Championship Dog Show – Berlin – Germany

 Judge :  Malcolm Godefroy (Fenwood) –UK –
Due to the wonderful very large entry of exhibits made -  under FCI rules there were too many dogs for one judge to be allowed to undertake – so all the youngsters from both sexes were given to the other retriever judges to reduce the workload to a more acceptable figure!

Despite the changes it was to become another successful day for our chosen showteam!!
