13.12.08 Helsinki, Finnish Winner Show
My old-boy-Elton, Int Ch XXL Of Black Mirage, delighted us by winning BOB, BOB-veteran, BIS4-veteran and can now add one more title, FINNISH WINNER 2008, to his long list of titles.
He had his 10th birthday couple of days ago, so I think this is quite a big win for a dog of his age.
Bleper’s Yabba-Dabba Doo won Junior class, and got the title FINNISH JUNIOR WINNER 2008.
Elton’s daughter, Int Ch Shavian No Mercy, won Champion class, Best Bitch and Cacib and she can also hold the new title, FINNISH WINNER 2008 !!
