Our showing this year will be very limited for the girls, Nikita and Inca last show for the year will be at Crufts, as we feel we want to give them a years break from the show ring ............... Nero is now up in the Limit/open classes, and has done very well with being awarded 2 RESERVE BEST DOG at champshow level. Nero has 5 points so far to achieve his show certificate of Merit so he will be hitting some open shows soon to hopefully gain some points! Watch out for this boy in a ring near you!
A great start to the Year Nero takes 6 BEST OF BREEDS 2 BEST AVNSC and 15 more points for his title making it 20 points!
