A MEMORABLE WEEKEND for Pureheart Spaniels 🏆
We exhibited at a small, local show hosted by the Pacific Kennel Club,, bringing 2 homebred dogs who each earned points in 3 of the 4 shows over the weekend.
'Bonzo' Purehearts Fluke of Fortune is maturing nicely and is really starting to shine! On Friday he was awarded Best of Breed under Judge ZhiDa Seven Duan from China, and on Saturday another Best of Breed under Judge Mikael Nilsson from Sweden. We were particularly proud when the Swedish judge stopped to ask me about our dogs and their pedigrees, he knew exactly which kennels I mentioned and said he was delighted to find these type of ESS here in Canada. Thank you to Lorianne Amadeo for handling Bonzo most of the weekend. 🙌
'Charlie' Purehearts Drawing a Royal has returned to the ring! On Sunday she was awarded Best of Breed under Judge Jean Tremblay from Canada. She caught his eye when he learned she had a litter just 3 months earlier and was impressed with her condition. It was wonderful stepping back into the ring together with her looking beautiful and healthy so soon after motherhood. This win was most exciting because I handled her to the final points needed to finish her championship. Charlie is a NEW CHAMPION! 🥳✨ *Pending CKC approval*
As a breeder, owner, and handler, there is nothing quite like crossing the finish line with dogs you’ve planned, reared and loved from day one. Aside from the wins, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with ringside friends both new and old. Of course a big thanks to Judges ZhiDa Seven Duan, Mikael Nilsson, and Jean Tremblay for appreciating our dogs. ❤️ 🐶
