05 September 2025 Papillon Breed Notes

Blackpool Championship Show is always a well run show with the committee ensuring that the exhibitors are happy for the day ahead. Toy specialist Mr Geoffrey Thomas was judging the breed and the day went smoothly along with the help of his experienced stewards. Very often people do not realise how important the stewards role is, they keep things running along at an even pace and make for a much easier day for both judge and exhibitors. Mr Thomas found his principal winners to be: BCC/ BOB /TGP1 Ryan, Roosen and Goessen’s – Ch/multi Ch Uppercut Daydream Believers with Feorlig (Imp Bel) JW Ww’24 . The TGP was judged by Mr Richard Haynes.
