Sunday 13 April
The Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of Scotland held its Open Show at Cochrane Hall, Alva with our Judge Frank Whyte (Kazval).  Milo was first in the ring and won Open Dog and was Reserve Best Dog to Nicky Boyd/Sharon Rossiter & Anthea Fox's Teddy (Sonstraal Gabe's Prospect at Sescheke).  Kudo was next up in Veteran Dog/Bitch, which he won and then Anny's sisters Kenda & Lexie were in Puppy Bitch alongside Anny's aunt Peaches.  Peaches won her class with Kenda 3rd and Lexie 4th.  Anny was up next in Junior Bitch and took the class ... the judge commented on her "lovely, free movement".  

Choccy was in Open Bitch and she showed beautifully and won her class well.  Anny's mum Gabby was 3rd today and was as mad as ever.  

Sharon handled Choccy in the bitch line up and she took Best Bitch and in the challenge took a well deserved Best in Show !!!

Below are some photos of Anny and Peaches ...

Hound Association of Scotland Championship Show - this was Anny's first Championship outing and she performed extremely well.  Unfortunately she wasn't placed today.  However, her aunt Fudge (CH Sonstraal Christmas Eve) won Open Bitch, took the Bitch CC and was Best of Breed.  Fab, we thought until we got the phone call to say that she had gone BEST IN SHOW !!!!  Congratulations to Fudge and to Christine and Frank !
