Judging in Sweden

Gothenburg Harbour |
Last weekend Alan and flew to Gothenburg where I judged an entry of 55 Cairns at the Vastsvenska Terrier Club at Aby, near Gothenburg.
The show was held at a venue which reminded me of Doncaster racecourse. I enjoyed my judging stint very much, I had an excellent steward and the committee made Alan and myself very welcome indeed.
One comment I must make is that the Cairns are cleaner than in England!
The main winners were;
|
Dog CC & Best of Breed from the Open class- the dog Pennypop’s Silver Moon Breeder & owner Birgit Nyborg. Sw Ch Raskens Returned Request x Pennypop’s Four Roses
|
|
|
Bitch CC. From the Champions class – the bitch Sw Ch Raskens Royal Tartan, Breeders & owners Elisabeth Nordstrand & Mats Lindborg. Int Ch & WW00 Rottrivers Stable Rat x Sw/Danish Ch Penticharm Lucky Heather of Paracai

The day after the show the Treasurer of the Club gave us a full days sightseeing tour of Gothenburg. It is an industrialised city but very beautiful. It is really clean and environmentally friendly. It is best known for the Volvo cars it makes there.
We had a lovely weekend.
