English Golden Retrievers In France

at the Cressat (Ahun) show he got Best Juene, his 4th award, then went BOB. He was not old enough to be awarded the CACS, he needs to be 15 months for that.

The Laird then went into the big ring with all the other Best Jeunes (25 in all) and made the first cut. Then he made the second cut – then was awarded Best Jeune in Show – chuffed or what!!

The Laird then went back in to compete for Best In Group adults. Lo and behold he was chosen again (different judge) Best in Group! he went no further, which is not surprising as he in not 13 months old until tomorrow.

This is the 5th time I have owned, bred or handled the BOB.

But that’s not all – Today the postman arrived with his hip and elbow scores (The Laird’s – not the postman’s!)

Sable decided she wasn’t going to wait any longer – time for the puppies to arrive! She gave birth to the first – a lovely little boy at about 7:30 pm and by 1am Friday 10 other puppies arrived, sadly the last – a little girl – was too weak to make it – but we do have 6 lovely boys and 4 wonderful girls!

If you visit the Puppy Page you can see a short video of them a 3 days old.
