11.12.2010 Tara at the Helsinki Winner 2010 Show

This weekend we have both Helsinki Winner 2010 & Winner 2010 title shows in Helsinki. I entered our Tara to one show and I thought that Saturday was an interesting option for us as we had a breed judge judging whippets. Our judge today came to Finland as far away as from Argentina and her name is Jacqueline Quiros-Kuibat from Dragonfly Whippets. Competition was very tough today, as always at the Messukeskus shows. There were 68 whippets entered, 34 males & 34 females.

We had 6 dogs in the Intermediate Class and Tara performed very nicely (I on the other hand didn't seem to understand when to stop running :D. I think I am blind as a bat sometimes) and got an Excellent and won her class. In the Best Bitch ring Tara was bored and slightly frustrated and didn't really want to stand still.

Tara was placed 4th in the Best Bitch ring, which was just fabulous. A very nice result that we are very proud of!!! Well done our little one!!!

Of course I had to "reward" Tara for such a good performance in the ring and no way she was ashamed of her oversized jump-suit :D I think I have to modify it a bit...
