Cornwall show for the Sunday and Monday September 6th and 7th

We entered Jazz and Brownie. Zayle's Handler brought him out and Ben Ruck brought Thor of the Baskerville line for this show. So we had great competition. On Sunday Zayle took breed and Jazz Best of Opposite and on Monday Thor took the breed and Jazz the best of opposite. Brownie had decided that she did not want to go around the ring but only wanted to exit - she was absolutely great before entering the ring and we had practiced in an empty ring - but come show time she did not want to cooperate. She stacked beautifully and the judge told us that she is a beautiful dog but that she must do her job in the ring. Dave will show her next time and we hope she will do her job for him - she seems to start to pout when it is time to show. Jazz has a ball in the ring as do the other dogs.

Jazz now has first 2 points.

Stormont Dundas Glengarry show on Sunday August 30th

We had Jazz, Brownie and Bobbi-Lynn brought Zayle out for this show - there were suppose to be another male and female showing but they were absent. Zayle took Best of Breed and Brownie took Winners Bitch and Best of Opposite Sex. Jazz did a great job for her first show. Bobbi-Lynn took a bunch of photos that we will post once she gets back online and is able to email them to us so stay tuned - we saw them on her camera and they are great. Thanks Bobbi-Lynn.

Brownie has her first point.

Limestone Show, Kingston Ontario, July 26th, 2009

Dragon won Best of Breed Sunday July 26th winning 2 points. Brownie got Best of Opposite Sex but did not get any points as she was the only female. Dragon's competition was a young male who will soon be hard to beat, Thunder Run's Zayle. Dragon and Zayle are shown below.

The Ottawa Kennel Club Dog Show, Kemptville Ontario, November 15 and 16, 2008.
Dragon won Best of Breed Saturday getting 2 points and his championship. He won Best of Breed again on Sunday
for some insurance points. Please see the show photo below.

Our daughter showed a very well behaved Siberian Husky named "Hershay" in junior handling, the junior novice
 division, and won her class. Megan and Hershay attended the finals for junior handling just before the Show of Shows.
This was her first time showing and she was very excited with her win. We want to thank the owners of Hershay, Dean and Colleen of SiberTrott Siberians for lending their dog to make our daughter look so good in the ring. Our mastiffs are still a little too big for her to handle. The junior handling experience is an awesome well supported one for all of the kids, we were quite impressed and will
definitely cheer our daughter on to continue.

Cornwall District Kennel Club Show August 31 and September 1, 2008.
Well, Harry beat Dragon both days we entered to take the Best of Breed and earn his first 2 points.
Dragon was off this weekend because he would have rather been breeding with our girl at home that was in heat.

Stormont, Dundas, & Glengarry Dog Association Show August 23 and 24th, 2008.
Dragon won Best of Breed August 23rd and Best of Opposite August 24th. There were 4 Mastiffs shown so he
adds 2 points for Saturday and 1 point for Sunday to his total to make it 9 now out of 10 for his championship.

Kars Community Recreation Association Dog Show July 19th and 20th, 2008.
Dragon won Best of Breed both days. Only 6 of the dogs were shown each day so Dragon receives
three points towards his championship from each day giving him his first points. It is great to have some
competition to be able to get some points when winning Best of Breed. Our thanks to judges Barbara Beland and Joe Tacker
for choosing Dragon as the Best of Breed.

Dragon in the ring first for breed then for group, July 19th, 2008. If you look closely at the ground in photo number 5 you will see that this site was extremely wet and muddy for both dog and owner. Hay was put down in the rings but this made it slippery. The city changed the location of the show ring which was not a good idea as there is no drainage in this area. The dogs probably enjoyed the wet ground as it was extremely hot out - but this was not a good thing for those with white dogs and light clothing. Many owners were carrying around their light colored dogs so that they would not get all muddy. Of course none of these were Mastiff owners and we all know why. The placement of the ring has been changed for future shows.

Cornwall District Kennel Club Show, September 2nd, 2007.
Cornwall, Ontario, Canada - We entered on Sunday September 2nd only.
Dragon was the only Mastiff so he took Best of Breed.

Kars Show July 21st and 22nd, 2007.
Kars, Ontario, Canada - We entered only on Saturday and Sunday.
Dozer took the Best of Breed July 21st and is now a champion. There were 10 dogs entered only 9 shown. Dragon took Reserve Winner Male but did not get any points for this. Dozer was shown as a Special on Sunday July 28th. Dozer and Dragon did not place on Sunday.

Kingston Show and Specialty July 28th, 2007.
In Kingston, Ontario. Dozer did not place - he was moved up to specials for these shows. Dragon took Reserve Winner Male and best Puppy aged 12 - 18 months. Dragon does not get any points for this but caught many an eye and beat some dogs that were larger and older. We are very proud of Dragon - keep an eye on him in the upcoming shows.

Ottawa Kennel Club Show, Richmond, Ontario, May 26th & 27th, 2007.
Dozer took the Best of Breed May 26th and May 27th and is now one point shy of his Canadian Championship. We had previously thought that Dozer had obtained his championship this weekend but he had only received two points for his Group 4th placement so he still needs one more. Dragon won Best Puppy in Breed and Reserve Winner May 27th at his first show and received his first point.

Dozer is shown with Co-owner and handler Dave Swift, winning a
Group 4th at the Save the Children Show September 9th, 2006.


Stay tuned for more shows and results as they become available. We will also let you know which dogs we will be showing.
Please note that there are other show photos on Dozer's and Dragon's pages.
