Congrats to all the winners!! I see that Australia has really international judges...great!

Narelle, Peter wrote me that you have new rules like: the Challenge Dog, Winner of the Champion Class and the Best Veteran all compete for Best of Breed. And what about winners of Champion class, do they compete for Dog/Bitch CC? I saw that Diva was Runner Up BOB but not CC bitch, am I right?

Congrats to all those beautiful weims, thanks Narelle for sharing the infos from this show with us!
Would also be good to see some pictures, if possible, thanks!

Best regards,
Kristina

[Alkemist]

GREAT results well done everyone. It would be great to understand the technicalities more, but I am happy seeing some dogs there that I recognise well done again.

[narelle]

This year they changed the system so that all the NON champion dogs and bitches were separated out from dogs and bitches in a CHAMPION class so the only dogs who competed for the Challenge points were the class winners of the dog and bitch.

The winner of the champion bitch class and the champion dog class then competed with the challenge dog and challenge bitch and veteran dog and veteran bitch for the best of breed and runner up best of breed award.

The Champions classes were by far very very large and its just a different system not be awarded 'challenge points' with this system, for anyone winning those champion classes is a big deal and to place in them aswell.

I am still not sure if the best of breed winner got points too, Graham will tell us.

Personally, I thought it was a better system and very exciting!

[narelle]

www.cabalcaninecandids.com is the site for the official Royal photographer but photos may take a day or two to start going up, it wont be alot of the one breed just the BOB, Puppies I expect but its good to see All Breeds here, I am not sure if Sam Lawler was photographing yesterday or at the Specialty, if you keep an eye on her photography page at www.lukedom.com photos may go up....Narelle

[bromhund]

No points for Best of Breed only the non Champions get the points. So we can't have a GRAND champion title and have this type of system no one would every get there GRAND title once they became an Australian Champion.

Well done to all the winners...

Suzanne

[imperiumstar]

Big congratulations for winner and special kiss for Reuben father my Sophie ;D

[narelle]

Well if they revamped the Grand Champion system so that dogs couldn't earn it merely on 6 point challenges I think that would be refreshing ! Dont you?

If the system that was used at the Royal came in across the board, there is no reason they couldn't implement BOB points aswell as Challenge Points and there would still be 25 points at group wins....or they could change the Grand Champion to have to win a certain amount of Group Placements or Best In Shows like New Zealand -

I think Grand Champions should at least show they have won at those high levels....

The present system you can be a grand champion and NEVER have beat one dog !

JMHO Narelle

[Jurate]

Congrats everyone!!!!

Thanks Narelle for posting the results!

I am very curious, how did You like Kornelia Butrimova as a judge? As she is a breeder of bullterriers And she was our Lithuanian Cynological Society president for about 4 years 1,5 years ago... And she is also a president of our town cynological club ;D

[narelle]

Well, we won all our classes and did very well so we thought she was great !! ha ha !!

She spent a long time sorting through the champions class to get her final 4 placings and those were the top dogs here both dogs and bitches... so she got it right - everyone may not agree in the order she chose but she found the dogs.

It was interesting because no one knew anything about her so we were all waiting to see what she was like !

Narelle

[Jurate]

I glad You liked her... Haha

Well dog people from our neighbored countries like her and says she is a really nice judge, but I don't always like the way she judges in Lithuania in our CAC shows, as there are to many "friends" bred or shown dogs

[bromhund]

They system in Australia need revamping and the ANKC have formed a committee for this purpose to review not only the process of gaining GRAND title but also an Australian Show title.

The GRAND champion title I think you should have at least 1 All breeds BIS or Specialty BIS before a GRAND title can be awarded.

We have it very easy already to gain our Australian show title there are enough shows in Australia that you can go to shows get enough points to get to 100 and never bet a dog. So no different really??

But then what happens to the rarer breeds when they go to shows in the cities but still no one for them to beat? We can't really make it any harder or then we will loose these rarer breeds being exhibited.

A process that needs great thought.

Just my thoughts on the subject

I am not really au fait with how your system works but can the rare breeds there not be on some kind of smaller register, like a rare breed register where they cannot compete for points but can still exhibit (say in stakes classes or rare breed classes), and then when there is sufficient registration numbers (and hopefully more exhibits), they move them up a notch? Or would the absence of points not be an attractive option for exhibitors?

[narelle]

We show the Lagotto, a very rare breed in Australia in the showring, if we had no points to look for to title it wouldn't be worth showing them.

Suzy is absolutely right in her post about our system here and I agree.

Im not sure what they could implement for the rare breeds, our lagotto has won many Group 1 and Group 2 this year far more than most Weimaraners but I dont' know if anyone would ever be brave enough to award him a BIS if ever that was what was needed for a Grand Championship.

There are plenty of other rare breeds that have been around long before the Lagotto here, I guess its also about judges education but also about the quality of the rare breeds -

Not sure what the answer is with the rare breeds....someone on another list I am on suggested we have variations on the Gr Ch....bronze, silver and gold for different levels of wins....

personally the Grand system doesn't really bother me personally so much but it would be nice to alter the CH system to the american method so that we could inspire more people to join the show world - presently its very hard when everyone has to compete against all the champions for new people and it would certainly inspire me to keep more dogs to show - the Sydney numbers have definately gone down in the last 5 years.
