Our event took place in Caledonia, Ontario in conjunction with the Erie Shores Kennel Club\u2019s all breed shows.<\/p>\n<p>Our day started with the Sweepstakes judging. Kim Groves was the judge for this event and had 5 juveniles to look over. Her choice for Best In Sweepstakes was the Jr. Puppy male # 847 CR Ultimate Encore owned and shown by Cindy Hunt. Kim\u2019s choice for Best Veteran was #845 Ch. KUMNC Myles of Birch Bark; RE, CD, DD, CGN, handled and owned by Sonya Birch.<\/p>\n<p>American Judge, Mr. Bill Shelton, reviewed an entry 28 Leonberger\u2019s. The judge made everyone feel very welcome in his ring. I couldn\u2019t help but wonder what he must have been feeling with a ring full of owners showing their own dogs, and not a professional handler in sight. He did comment on the comradeship amongst us, everyone cheering, and clapping for each other. It is probably the first time in his judging career he heard a crowd yell, \u201crun Forrest run\u201d while having Anna-Marie Kristensen do a victory lap, with his winners ribbon blowing in the breeze. He actually had each winner do a victory lap with their ribbons flying. Leny Wagenaar-DeRuijter did a victory lap with Angel who was Winners Bitch and Best of Winners.<\/p>\n<p>Best of Breed was awarded to Bludrift\u2019s Champagne Taste of Diamonds \u201cChampagne owned by Luanne Moede. An exceptional dog, Champagne had a fabulous weekend by earning her Canadian Championship and winning the Best In Show award on the Saturday over 470 other dogs. Wow!!!<\/p>\n<p>Best of Opposite was Paddy\u2019s Pamir vom Lowengarten \u201cCedric\u201d owned and shown by Jan Gray. Cedric\u2019s son (Heronviews Just Cruising) did well at the Regional Specialty, a proud moment for both Jan and Iivi Silaste, owner of Cedric\u2019s mom Gch. Heronviews GoGo Dancer.<\/p>\n<p>Winner\u2019s Dog was awarded to Heronviews Hercules \u201cForrest\u201d owned and shown by Anna-Marie Kristensen.
