Fantastic Weekend in Canberra!

Our small team had a fantastic weekend in Canberra.

• On the 3rd of October, at the Border Terrier Club of NSW’s championship show, our Chip (Ch Dalshoj Chippendale NE) took out BIS under Geoff Blyth (Tasmania).
• Clover (Ch Burrowa Blue Flame SE) was awarded Australian Bred in Show and also was the winner of the Earthdog of the Year award.
• The following day, at the Canberra All Breeds Kennel Club, under Robert Bartram (Craigend border terriers), Chip followed his win with a BOB. This were the final points needed for his title. Thank-you to all the judges that have recognised Chip’s quality and awarded him.

Chip only arrived in Australia in March 2010, and in his seven months in Australia has accumulated:

• 100 points to make him an Australian Champion
• Passes in Novice Earthdog, resulting in the title of “NE” (Novice Earthdog)
• A best in speciality show win (Border Terrier Club of NSW Championship Show 2010)
• A runner-up best in show win (Terrier Club of SA Championship Show, May 2010, under Anne Sorraghan)
• Two runner-up in group wins
• Two additional passes in Senior Earthdog, making him two-thirds of the way to his SE title
