  1. I have one Havanese who will watch just about anything on TV but is particularly interested in the RSPCA ads and also the beer ads with the deer in them that used to be on....
  2. I explained our system to an American friend and she said, oh it's the same as the UKC so try pointing them in that direction.
  3. I haven't owned one but there is a lot of weight in checker plate. I would be more concerned about my fuel consumption and wear & tear on my towing vehicle. Just my 2 cents worth....
  4. LOL u think? I showed my Schipperke in Gilgandra a couple of weeks ago and the Judges comment was "Gee, they really look different with a tail!" So whilst that may be true in some breeds, unfortunately that doesn't appear to be the case with Schipperkes. I had a Canadian judge say similar to me about the OES I was showing "it's the first time I've judged them with a tail and it's a lot to get used to". He went on to put him up for BOB. Just because they commented on the tail it doesn't mean they were biased about them having one. Unfortunately, I have found that every time they make a comment about the tail they then proceed to put up the docked dogs. The ones that don't say anything or have something complimentary to say about the tail, usually go for the tailed dogs....

  6. I had this exact same problem with a young bitch I was showing. After the bad experience she would try and jump off the table every time she saw the Judge approaching. I took the opportunity to still show her but explained to the Judge BEFORE they even approached her that she had had a bad experience on the table. I appreciate the time and effort ALL of the Judges took in being extremely gentle with her and after a couple of months she soon relaxed on the table and was no longer looking for an escape route every time...
  7. and one Schipperke in NSW. Also 4 Bearded Collies got their Supreme in NSW with one getting her Grand & Supreme on the same day and did it in style with 2 BIG's on the weekend...
  8. No Chows or wrinklies. 10 Dallies one show & 14 in the other :D
  9. You want me to type out the WHOLE of group 7 for both shows? How bout u just tell me what breeds u r interested in...
  10. I would think some of the Queensland dogs would have got it first as they had a show on Tuesday. Don't forget, you are only eligible AFTER 1st July so if you got your CC on the 1st of July you would still need one CC for your Supreme...
  11. Yes, I think you have time. Send the neuter certificate (and her paperwork)to Dogs NSW ASAP. You should get them back fairly quickly, certainly before the date of the show.
  12. As previously stated, most shows in NSW give a breed breakdown when numbers are posted to exhibitors. Interestingly enough, most of these shows are listed on OzEntries and the majority of entries are received via same. You may be interested to know that of the 1000+ entries for the recent St George District Kennel Club Show, approximately 850 of those entries were done via OzEntries. As most people would know, shows that are listed on OzEntries generally close 7-10 days before the show so I guess that my question would be, if the show secretaries in NSW can make all this information available to exhibitors (whilst working within a very small time frame for preparation of catalogues and mailing of numbers), why do other States have a problem with doing this also?
  13. My peev from last weekends show!!! Ok, so it's raining, Judge short lists her BIG lineup. I'm thinking, isn't that nice of her, not keeping everybody out in the rain when she isn't interested in them. WRONG!!! Judge takes her short list undercover and runs them from there but leaves the rest of us standing out in the rain until finally the steward realises we are still standing there and dismisses us from the ring.... yes, I know this is supposed to be a light-hearted thread but on the upside, I got a cold for free!!!
  14. Awwwww come on, when you have that many Chihuahua's to feed you can't really afford more than one lead.... :rofl:
  15. my peev from yesterday. People coming to the Secretary's Hut and claiming that they ordered a catalogue on OzEntries but their envelope doesn't have a CATALOGUE stamp on it. The show secretary politely stating that she also keeps a list and on checking that list, finds that the exhibitor did NOT order a catalogue and said exhibitor (of which there were an amazing amount) wandering away without purchasing a $3 full catalogue or $1.50 group catalogue... :confused:
  16. I use check chains on my Schipperkes and sometimes on my Havanese (if they don't behave themselves). You can order a check chain online from https://www.petcetera.com.au/index.php?l=product_detail&p=642 or if you are anywhere close to Vineyard you can go to their store and get one. Petcetera is Peter & Trish Cutler's show van that is at Erskine Park.
  17. Shelties = 21 Group = 210 We also have a ring plan - Working Dogs in ring 1
  18. St Bernards too please and total in utility :) Deerhounds = 3 Wolfhounds = 3 St Bernard = 10 Utility = 185 Total in Show = 1308
  19. I got one with my numbers which arrived on Friday...
