Extremely long day we had on Saturday, but a lovely one!
It was an entry of 28 for this Swedish judge mrs. Barbara Ruth Smith.

The day started with Ruuti's win in junior class with a cq. He was also BOB junior!



Then in was Raisu's go and he won the intermediate class with a cq and received res-cc!



Rocky was in champion class; exc-2 with a cq and finally 4th best male, in the finals he was excellently handled by Ari.



Hertta got a nice critique and was 3rd in champion class with a cq.

We felt confident showing our breeders class with the dogs that all gained cq, and Hi-Lite was BOB breeder with this statement from the judge:
"A very consistent group of high quality basenjis. The breeder should be congratulated. Wish them all the best for the future!" :)



We stayed for the finals and waited until late afternoon. Ruuti was shortlisted in the best 10 in the Roayl Canin junior competition out of an entry of maybe 80 juniors from different breeds?? It felt huge to see him gait there with Janne :) The judge was mr. Cochetti from Italy.

Our breeder's group managed also to get shortlisted among the 7 best out of some 40 different groups! The judge was mr. Doedjins from Nederlands.




The crowning of the day was to meet our sweet girl Lilja (Wow Factor). We haven't met her since she was 7 weeks but she surely remembered us :) She is just as beautiful as we remembered....








So thank you for this lovely day everyone who was there for us: Ari, Anu, Mervi and Tuija :)
