Half-time

2019 continues to be an amazing year for Benni (Aust. Ch. Armahani Heliodorr Hulivili (ai) ET). During the second quarter of the year, we attended 12 shows to finish with:

• 1 x Best in Group (BIG1)

• 6 x Runner-up Best in Group (BIG2)

• 2 x Best Australian Bred in Shows

• 9 x Best Australian Bred in Groups

His continued success means Benni is:

#5 All Breeds (Tasmania) - Topdog Pointscore

#2 Working Dog (Tasmania) - All Systems

#2 Finnish Lapphund (Australia) - All Systems

With very limited showing, Jäger (Zuleika Gold Digger) showed once again he can mix it with the big kids. Following on from his Sydney Royal success, he really does love a big stage. This time he stepped out for the first time with his owner, Stephanie Ives, for the Finnish Lapphund Club of Victoria Open Show, under breed specialist, Wayne Sharpe (Janoby) to take Best Male and Runner-up Best in Specialty Show (BISS2).

As every breeder knows, there are often disappointments. We attempted to breed from Fleur, during this quarter, but it wasn't to be. We will try again soon, so fingers crossed and watch this space. Having turned three in March, she really is looking her best at the moment.
