Preston becomes a National Champion

 

On August 3, 2007 we ventured to Laramie Wyoming for their first ever International Dog Show held on August 4 and 5, 2007. . . .the Laramie Summer Sieger. It was an outdoor show and the setting was very interesting - at the Wyoming Territorial Prison.

Preston had one Certificate Card from the March 2007 shows and needed two more to finish his National Championship. He did that on Saturday and then moved into the Ehrenklasse (honor class) which is for dogs with an IABCA National and International UCI title. He picked up two more Certificate Cards and now needs just one more to finish his Ehrenklasse championship title.

Mr. P was Best of Breed in all four shows receiving a ranking of V-1 (highest ranking you can get) and was awarded two group 2's and two group 3's.
