The Papillon (Butterfly Dog) Club Centenary year came to a close with their last show of the year. Due to Glenn and I judging in Scotland we were disappointed that we could have joined in the fun.
What a success story the Centenary year has been with the clubs secretary Chris Headley and her hard working committee putting in a huge amount of effort to make it a year to be remembered for everyone.
Lots of surprises at this show and even Santa took time out to pay a visit. Chris and Bob Anderson where in attendance with their very well stocked club stall. It is always a joy browsing through what they have on offer.

For this last show Toy Specialist Robert Hitchcock (Bobitch/Lizlanmor) was taking the helm and he must have been delighted with his super entry.
The results were as follows: BIS/BPIS/BPB a delighted Jo Davidson Poston with Elena Kolekcja Szuwarka Spinillons (IKC). Jo continued the winning ways being awarded RBIS/ BOS with Dual Ch Sky Butterfly Elven Cron Prince Spinillons SHCEX SK Winner 23 (Imp Rus). Also BVIS with Ch, IrCh, Nl Ch & Int Ch Spinillons Rebel Rowser JW, ShCm, CW14, VW, ShCex. Congratulations Jo on your fabulous day.
