Shizuoka Dog Show Results

Hello, we returned from Shizuoka and can't complain much. The first day, Max, Land Rose JP All Right made his debut in the baby class at just over 4 months old!!! He got a huge trophy and two big ribbons.

And for Goldie, Goldie received the Reserve Best in Show and Queen Title, she is on a roll! :-) This is her 3rd Queen and Reserve Best in Show in two months along with several Reserve Queens. I am so proud and excited over her success.

As of June 30th, she is ranked #1 Terrier in Japan and of course #1 Scottish Terrier with over 1,500 All Breed points and still counting....Congrats mom for breeding such a beautiful bitch!

Hiroshi had a good weekend, he got Queen with Donna the Cairn Terrier on Saturday, and Leo was Reserve King, and then on Sunday Leo and Goldie challenged the BIS together as Hiroshi and I seem to like to do, and this time Leo was Best in Show, I was so happy for Hiroshi and Leo, thanks to Chisato and Jumpei on their excellent preparation Leo looked like the BIS dog that he is. I think he will win a lot more from now on!

Until next time,

Rebecca

Bergit has come and gone!

Bergit came to do her seminar and it was so good to see her. Polo and Eric the Westy were her model dogs and Polo did so well. Bergit complimented his trimming and said I was doing fine. She got to see Max and liked him so I was a bit relieved. Mari took some photos so once I get them up, I'll post a few. I did however get some pictures from the juniors (The Inman kids) from Mom Lisa. Milady (pictured with Bergit) finished her championship after Marla's long hard work on the grooming and Bergit's touch ups. We've got a little break, there aren't any dog shows until the 26 and 27th. We went to Tokyo after the seminar, me and my husband and stayed in Shinagawa. The weather went bad so we stayed in the area, ate TGIFs and went to the Epson Aqua Stadium which was inside the hotel and watched a dolphin show and saw the sealions. There were tons of fish too!

G7 Seminar

Last Sunday Chisato and I went to hot HOT HOT HOT Hokkaido, it was about 31 Celsius and the show ground was on SAND!!! It was so hot, poor Eric the Airedale was dying, we had him wrapped in cool towels but it was so bad. He was able to get Excellent Group and Goldie as well. We didn't push the dogs to their potential as it was a small show and not worth pushing them, Goldie showed well even still but I kept her back in the shade.

We are getting ready tomorrow to drive to Fuji Yoshida City where we are staying. I talked to Hiroshi and Bergit had just arrived, I spoke to her on the cell phone, she said the flight was good and they are going to a hotel and will rest, she was amazed at how big it was! :-) I can't wait to see her again, she is such a wonderful person.

For those that are attending the seminar, see you on Thursday! :-)

Cookie got a pet clip!

Cookie got a pet clip today! She has never been shaved before but I can not strip anymore, there is no time and she has been hot. She actually looks really pretty and I can see the real body, she seems to like it. She is sleeping a lot now, her 4th birthday is coming this Friday. I am hoping she is pregnant, we did another mating to Polo and hope for a repeat litter like her last, she produced some nice things. Max is getting big! :-)

We're getting ready for Hokkaido this weekend, we have a show on Sunday, Chisato will come along with me, and I'm so glad, I enjoy her company and we can talk about the dogs.

Its been a busy month!

Hi,

Just returned from vacation in Tokyo with my husband. I have some news and results from the shows the week before and this past weekend.

Polo - Hokkaido on 23 July - Excellent in Group and NEW CHAMPION! Now he is retired from Japan show ring and will relax for a while.

Goldie - 29 July - There were two shows in Morioka, she was Excellent in Group at the first show in the rain, and then she was Queen under Mr. Kimura the second show!

30 July - She went to Hirosaki and was Excellent in the Group. Thank you Chisato, Shige, and Junko for helping me out so much!

Not much else at the moment, catching up on school work and keeping the dogs groomed up.

P.S. Here is a picture of the new baby, Max, Land Rose JP All Right! He is my husband's new puppy, he got to name him.

Morioka Show Results

This past weekend, Goldie was Reserve Queen under Judge Mr. Uryu. It was a bit hot so I had to keep her cool but she held up and showed wonderfully. Chisato showed Eric the Airedale and he got Excellent Group in the males out of a pretty large group.

Hokkaido Weekend Results!

Here's the report for the past weekend. Chisato and I took the ferry from Hachinohe to Tomakomai in the Hokkaido Island. It was a 9 hour trip but easier then driving I think. I got a little sick on the way up, I had Taco Bell, big mistake. :-)

So we went to the Hokkaido regular dog show on Saturday where the MCC cards were given out. Polo was Excellent in Group and got the MCC card, and Goldie was Reserve Queen!!!

On Sunday, I only showed Goldie and she was Group 1 and Reserve Best in Show Queen! Chisato showed Eric the Airedale and he won the Group 1st for the males! :-) I was so happy for Chisato, this is her second Group 1 this year with him!

I'm excited, for this week I'm will be getting a small surprise!

Becca

Reserve Queen and BIS!

We went to show in Yamagata on Saturday, Polo was in hopes of a CC card for his championship, and we had big hopes for Goldie. But this time, judge was liking Polo, and Polo was Best in Show and Goldie Reserve Queen, although this judge loved Goldie so much and I think wanted to give her the Queen but for reasons could not give. I could not believe Polo was winning like this again, it was almost a year since he was winning last Best in Show and never shown again because I wanted Goldie to win. I am very happy, but humble, Polo needs just two more CC's and JKC Ch is finished, then he can relax. Now it is made easier because American champions may show in the small shows.

As soon as I receive pictures, I will post!

Nagano Photos!

Here's Goldie and Becky! Goldie likes to sleep while waiting on the table, she was caught on camera!! Everyone that knows Goldie, is used to seeing this. :-) Thank you to Fumiko and her husband for photos from Becky!

Group 1 and a New Champion! Nagano FCI Results!

Polo is now the proud Sire of two Japanese champions, his second finished this weekend at the Nagano FCI Show with a Winners Bitch and Major CC. New JKC Ch. Brotherhood JP Lil' Devil, aka Becky finished and RCACIB as well. BOB on the male side was Int.CH. Orthopaedic JP The Dignified One, "Daniel", Goldie's counterpart and he went on to Group 3.

Goldie was BOB and went on to a crowded Group 1 finish under Judge Mori-san. He has given her a Group 1st before, but almost a year ago. Here is a picture to share that was taken by GoodLuck Web.

Fumiko was very happy, she is Becky's owner. We also did a group photo with Goldie, Polo, Cookie, Gina, and Becky, it should be a cute photo. :-)

Rebecca

Some Photos!

As I surfed the net, I found some pictures of me and Goldie, candid photos, courtesy of e-inu.com and the Borzois. Also, my friend took photos at Hachinohe, with some nice photos of Eric and Becky! We are preparing for Nagano this weekend, a big FCI, I have yet to win BOB, this is a challenge for me, but it is always big competition for us. :-) I will do my best and win fair and honest!

Weekend results!

Chisato and I went to Akita and on Saturday Chisato showed Eric and got an Excellent. On Sunday Goldie was Group 1st!

In the states, Goldie's sister was Award of Merit at the Washington State Specialty and her son was Reserve Winners Dog. And in Canada his brother Dante was Winners Dog, Best of Breed and Group 3 under Jim Reynolds, the BIS judge from Westminster at a Terrier Show!

Anna was also BOB the rest of the weekend each day! So go Polo kids!

Goldie was Group 1, Becky was Excellent in Group, and Eric was Reserve King!

What a weekend, Saturday I went to Hachinohe and met up with Chisato, showed Eric and Becky. Eric was Reserve King and Becky got her 3rd CC and Excellent in the Group. Then I took Goldie to Sendai, hopped on an airplane and went to the Chubu Union Show and Goldie received Group 1! I'm tired, have to go now, but will write more soon! Here is Eric and me!

Anna Nicole keeps winning in the group!

Anna got a Group 4 and Group 2 on Monday and Tuesday in some tough competition! Go Anna, congrats to Vandra!

Goldie is Group 1st at Tohoku FCI!

The results are in, I took Goldie and Eric for showing. Eric was BOB/CACIB, but we couldn't compete with Group, he wasn't even looked at, though I watched the video my husband took and he showed really well.

As for Goldie, she continued her winning ways and won the Terrier Group Bitch!

That's all for now!

Rebecca

Anna Nicole is winning in the Group again!

Last weekend in Washington, Goldie's sister Anna (owned by Vandra Huber) continued her winning ways, she got a 2 Group 3's, one on Saturday and Sunday!!!

Congratulations Anna! Goldie sends her luck!

Best in Show - But not with a Scotty!

On Sunday, I met Chisato at Morioka to take the Airedale and Scotty to a show in Sendai. Unfortunately I was going alone as Chisato couldn't join me. So I was prepared to be busy. We were of course the only ones in the breed, and I met Junko there and helped her with the Dachshunds. So we waited most of the day for the groups to start.

First we went in for King, and it was so hot. Eric was a good boy and tried his best to show but he was hot, I kept him in the shade and cooled him off with water while we waited.

We went back in and he first made the cut, then we got the KING!!! Oh, and the CC.

Then I showed Becky, as a 14 month old junior so far she had the one CC from Osaka. Becky was a good girl and is getting better each show and walking better too. She made the cut and got Excellent Group and her 2nd CC.

Then I ran back to get Eric, thanks to Teru Sugahara for watching him and combing him up for me.

We had to go against a Cunningham Dachshund, the judge had us move each dog down and back and then made his decision....IT WAS ERIC!!! He got Best in Show! I ran to call Chisato, but Becky's owner had already called her and told her, Chisato was so happy!

Chisato thanks everyone who loves Eric and supports him! He truly is a excellent specimen of theAiredale Terrier! I was so honored to handle him for Chisato.

I talked to Hiroshi also, Leo, his Wire Fox Got Group 1 at Toyama FCI, which I was happy for, he's a really good dog and loves to show, and he had good results and congratulations to Mr. Hirota with Trigue the English Setter, he got Reserve King!!

Wish us luck in Tohoku!

Weekend Results

Chisato and I drove to Osaka this weekend, 16 HOURS!!!! We got to Osaka around 8 pm and managed to go to Universal Studios Japan and go the city and eat Hard Rock Cafe!

So we started off the weekend with rain, it rained all day Saturday, and we had a dog show. Unfortunately the Airedale (Eric) missed his entry due to a mix up, but Becky made hers. Becky, Polo's daughter from Maguma, Ch. Brotherhood JP Maguma at Strry Sky was BOB and got her first CC by getting Excellent in the Group under judge Shoji Kimura, this was the same judge whom gave Goldie a Best in Show in March.

Te next day, was the Airedale and Goldies turn at the Kinki FCI. First I showed Eric for Chisato, and got BOB/CACIB/MCC. He just needs 2 more tickets to finish. Goldie was BOB and Group 2, we couldn't fight for the Group 1 as her friend Daniel, Ch. Orthopaedic JP The Dignified One took the Male Group 1. Her owner, Mr. and Mrs. Nakamura had a good day with their scots.

Becky will challenge again this coming weekend, wish her luck!

Best in Show #3!!! Tokyo Chofu Rengoten Show!

We enjoyed the Japanese Holiday and Golden Week, and the Aomori Cherry Blossoms (Sakura) are now in bloom and Misawa is finally warm again, the weather has been wonderful here. I traveled Thursday evening after work at about 4 pm to get to Tokyo on Friday (May 5th) for a Dog Show for Goldie. I arrived at 1am, enough time to get some sleep before opening the gates at 6am. It was extremely hot and the parking lot was black top and some dogs didn't like it. Goldie was hot too and I didn't think was showing her best but she pulled through in the breed and winning the Group. She then went on to BEST IN SHOW! Thanks to all her fans and supporters who cheered her on! (Kao, Mr. Hirota, Mao, and the whole Clumber Up Family!) Then we went to dinner and I attempted to drive home but I was too tired. I slept near Fukushima until the sun rose and I continued to arrive home at 10am on Saturday, it was a long trip but well worth it.

Cookie came for the ride, and was happy to see everyone, she even saw her friend Shigeru whom she remembers giving her chicken treats while in the show ring last year. She loves Shige for the treats. :-)
