Apologies for the lapse in updating our website, I
have had quite a busy time, what with the grooming salon, puppys and showing.
I decided to keep one of the dogs
from Weiner's litter and named him Zeus, he has already been showing for a while now and is holding is own. Lily succesfully
delivered her first litter without any problems in April of this year and again (I must be mad), I decided to keep a
shaded cream little girl who I have named Sammy. Sammy qualified for Crufts 2011 at her first show, so heres hoping she may
follow in the footsteps of Red.
I have also had another new addition, a Standard Longhaired Dachshund, called Bug.
Bug is Black & Tan and she is a big softy. She makes me laugh daily......
Red has had a very good year
in the ring and I am delighted to annouce that he achieved a Reserve Challenge Certificate at Driffield Champ Show under Mrs
M Jamieson, even better news he took the Challenge Certificate and Best Of Breed at The Great Joint Dachshund Assoc. Champ
Show under Mr J Goddard. Very many thanks to both Judges.
March 2011 ~ DFS Crufts, I am thrilled to announce that
Red took the Dog CC and Best of Breed at Crufts 2011. Many thanks to Judge Mrs L Coxon for thinking so highly of my wonderful
little man. Zeus came in with a very respectable 4th out of 11 and poor Sammy was unplaced on this occassion, but was still
pleased as she has only been showing for three and a half months, it was quite overwhelming for her.
Well a lot has happened since March and the awesome win at Crufts, Red has gone
from strength to strength, gaining a further 7 Reserve Challenge Certificates. His crowning moment was at Driffield Champ
Show, when Judge Mr Gerry McFaul awarded Red his third Challenge Certificate, giving him the title Champion Sengepabu Saint
Valentine.
Junior has now entered 5 shows and has been very
successful by winning 1st place in 4 of the shows. He also was awarded Best Puppy in Breed at Driffield Champ Show, again
many thanks to Judge Mr Gerry McFaul for thinking so highly of my boys.
You can find pictures of some of the 'gang' on facebook, just search for Karen Holden (Sengepabu)
and send friend request.
