What a weekend at the Davao Canine Exhibitors Club Inc. All Breed Championship Dog Shows.

Our home-bred dogs made us incredibly proud once again, overcoming quite a hurdle to get there. Our journey started with a major roadblock on Thursday when we got stranded at the airport. Due to the GenSan airport closure, all flights to Davao were fully booked. We had to wait anxiously for a solution, but fortunately, all of our dogs made it onto the very last flight, landing us in Davao at 3:00 AM on the first day of the show. Because the dogs were absolutely exhausted, we made the compassionate call to skip the rest of day one so they could get some proper rest. And wow, did that rest pay off! They performed beautifully this weekend.

Proud Breeder Moment!

It is rare to see a dog so young achieve greatness with such consistency, but Maximus has proven himself to be truly exceptional on both the local and international stage. At just 15 months of age, he has officially finished his Grand Championship, capping off a legendary run through the classes.

In addition to an astonishing 30x Class Best in Show titles at home and his stellar performance at the Philippine Circuit 2026, Maximus recently campaigned abroad. He proudly represented at the Vietnam and Thailand International Shows, capturing coveted Best in Show placements against top-tier international competition.

Now holding International, Asia & Oceania, and Southeast Asia Junior Champion titles, Maximus is a testament to quality, type, and world-class temperament. Thank you to the judges who recognized our young boy's virtues worldwide. The sky is the limit!

He is ready to become our 7th home-bred Hall of Famer

Gallantry News Update!

To GOD be all the Glory!

From our darkest day to our biggest dream come true. Super proud of our dogs in the recently concluded Philippine Golden Retriever National Breed Specialty 2026! After everything we've been through lately, seeing them out there shining in the ring has left me completely speechless and in tears of pure joy.

It's a beautiful reminder that there is always hope after the storm. Thank you to everyone who held our hands, believed in us, and cheered for our fur babies. They truly are our lifesavers! We love you all!

In 2017, our first home-bred Grand Champion was born; 8 years later, she made us proud after being out of the show for 6 years. Our baby girl Ariya BISS/BPBISS/MBPBIS/MBVIS/MBVISS/PH GCH/JCH GALLANTRY'S ARYA AT BLK ROSE won Best in Specialty Show and Local Best in Specialty Show at the recently concluded Philippine Golden Retriever National Breed Specialty 2026 under breed specialist judge Mr. Sungchul Park.

Our boys did a fantastic job, but they haven't yet won anything significant. Despite their youth, they put up a fierce battle against the nation's top goldens.

TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!

Resilience is built one step at a time. One month ago, we stood amidst the ashes of what we spent a lifetime building, unsure of when we would ever see the ring again. The struggle to get back on track has been real and exhausting, but the strength of this community carried us when our own was fading. Your prayers weren’t just heard; they were felt.

We are back—not just because of our own strength, but because of the overwhelming support that carried us through the smoke. We are proud to be in the ring today, stronger for having survived the fire together.

WE HAVE A NEW GRAND CHAMPION!

Last week, we lost our kennel to a devastating fire. It is difficult to accept that in an instant, everything we worked hard for turned to ashes. We were able to save almost all of our dogs; unfortunately, 5 of them died due to suffocation. This was the worst nightmare of our lives. We wish we could've saved them all, but we failed. We are currently in shock and navigating what comes next. Please keep us in your thoughts. As of now, our dogs are staying in different shelters for the time being. We are eternally grateful to friends, family, and even strangers who have extended their help. Please keep us in your thoughts. I'm asking for all your prayers. If you have extra dog food, a cage, or a playpen that we can borrow. It really means a lot to us.

For in-kind donations: you can give us dog-related items. We didn't save anything. You can send it here:
