A flurry of open shows to report, Papillon exhibitors having successful results, flying the Pap flag high for the breed. At Yeovil DCA the show saw Raewyn O’Brien judging the breed and Doreen Dowsett for the TGP. Dee Olaf had a lovely day with her youngster Tarnock Romeo Romeo taking BPIB and TPGP1 and also RBOB with Tarnock Rock N Roll Rene. Sue Morrell also saw success taking BOB with Temelora Let It Be Magic JW.

Stithians Agricultural Association Open Dog Show was another brilliant show for Sue Stanbury and Susie and Margaret Orchard. BOB was Sue’s Inixia Ever Ready Eddie and Susie followed on taking RBOB with Panspayon Eye Of The Storm and also BPIB and TPGP2 with Panspayon Gold Fever. The replacement judge was Val Cumpstey.

Camborne & Redruth DCS saw Claire Bayre judging for the breed and Chris Briggs judging the groups. There was another good day in store for Sue Stanbury taking BOB and TGP4 with Inixia Ever Ready Eddie and BPIB and TPGP3 with Inixia Glamour Girl. RBOB went to Susie and Margaret Orchard’s Ringland Yoko’s Solo at Panspayon shCM.

This is not Pap related but Carol Lees as the breeder must have been thrilled as on the international front from Liege International Show in Belgium, Lafford Milky Bar Kid took the CAC/CACIB & BOB. The judge was from Italy Mr P Tartaro.

Staying across the pond Carine Rutten at the International dog show at Luik the judge was Mr Victor Lobakin(AZ.) Paparrotsie Walk The Walk 1exc junior CAC BOB Junior. This means he finishes his Belgium Junior title. Congratulations to his breeder Pat Urwin. For the Phalene classes, Dance Only Rumba Vive Vanette went 1 exc CAC CACIB and BOB.

Enjoy the shows and the glorious weather; it is not often here in the UK when it rains we are smiling. The gardens are gasping and they so need some respite from the sun rays but maybe during the night would be the perfect plan.
