Hoogstraten/B

On Saturday was the show in Hoogstraten/Belgium. She is held yearly in the Vegetable Auction Halls. The space is not really enormous, but the list with judges therefore very, very interesting. It was Mister Horst Kliebenstein from Germany who first judged the Bobtails and afterwards the Beardies. This German All rounder is already known to me for years, however I never showed a dog under him. He was the one, in spite the fact that I have 2 litters at home, made sure that I went and wanted to do this. As said, first the OES where on and our King became Best of Breed. Than there were 2 other breeds after which he 6 Beardies where judged. I cannot understand that such a few people had entered, with a judge  like this, who had never judged in Belgium before.

Afterwards the long waiting started again to go in to the Big Ring. Chris Beirendonk, who had also won with her puppy male, so that we could spent some nice time together waiting.

“King” is very convinced of himself and Mrs. Vermeire/B, who judged the Group also liked him and placed him 5th in Group 1.
