Unfortunately Katja will not be having pups in December 2011 due to unforseen circumstances.
On the 18th October 2011 we attended our very first FCI Show that was held in Cape Town. Both girls were graded as "Excellent." Bella was awarded the CACIB and Katja the RCACIB.
The judge Mr Jo Scheepers is from Holland, the following are his observations: Bella:- 3 years. Good constructed bitch. Very good head. Dark eyes and good expression. Strong neck. Good topline and tail. Good ribs. Good toned legs. Good coat and structure. Moves very well. Nice temperament. Final Grade: Excellent [1st in Champions and Best of Breed] CACIB awarded.
Katja:- 23 months. Nice young bitch. Good proportions. Nice head. Good eyes, ears and teeth. Good forechest. Very good topline and good ribs. Standing on good legs and feet. Good coat. Good movement. Final Grade: Excellent [1st in Intermediate and Reserve Best of Breed] RCACIB awarded.
One of Bella's pups attended the Western Gauteng K.C. Open show on the 5th November 2011. Ruschka achieved Best Puppy and BOB and went on to get placed 4th in the Puppy Working Group. Congratulations to her proud owners Lynne and Peter Ward.
