05/10/10: CAC - National Allbreed Show Salgótarján
Salgótarján CAC was organised in a wonderful valley in Northeast Hungary, very nice venue. Lola got 2nd Ex, out of coat. Judge Mr P.Szabó Béla did not like her at all and said: “... it is the beach where we go without coat...”. Altogether it was a good weekend with a lovely excursion in Börzsöny mountains. We climbed up the castle ruins of Drégely, where a small group of Hungarian heroes stopped the expansion of the huge Turkish Empire's army for a short time in the 16th century.

2010. April 12, Monday: Trek won junior class at Southern Border Collie Club show this weekend in Kent (UK)!
This weekend we kept our fingers cross not only for the results of Hungarian elections, but for Trek too who went to Kent with Ross, to Southern Border Collie Club Show, where he won junior class!! Judge was David Cavill, who gave Star the European Junior Champion title in 2008 at the European Dog Show in Budapest. David Cavill is highly recognised judge, having extensive experience as a breeder, exhibitor and Championship show manager. Wrote several books e.g. 'All About Showing Dogs' first published by Pelham Books in 1984. It is such an honour that he thinks so highly about our dogs.

2010. March 16, Tuesday: Trek was third in Special Junior Class at Crufts 2010!
Trek was third in Special Junior Class at Crufts 2010! Among 405 entries he was the only one Hungarian bred border collie! We - with the breeder Juhos Kati - are very proud of him. It was so enjoyable watching him as he was handled by his owner, Ross Green. Congratulations!
Trek has improved a lot, he is wonderful. His lovely and friendly attitude is just as it was!
2010. February 13, Saturday: Star as most successful British sheepdog got Pentabord Cup for 2010!
Star
received this year the Pentabord Cup, founded for the most successful
British sheepdog of the previous year. For this very high recognition
compete collies, beardies, bobtails, aussies, corgies and border
collies in Hungary. It is first time that a border collie wins this
cup. The official ceremony was the annual award dinner of the Hungarian
British Sheepdog Club. Pentabord Cup is sponsored by Zsuzsanna Vörös,
first Hungarian pentathlon olympic champion lady.
Star
was shown at 49 shows in 2009 which required considerable effort both
on the side of the dog as well as owners. From the UK through
Transsylvania to Dalmatia and from the Carpathian Uplands to Voivodina
we travelled a lot, worked a lot, had lots of wonderful results,
fantastic experiences, also some disappointments but that's the way it
is - we have learned. From the very beginning we saw that there is
always a chance to win with Star so we showed him as much as we had
time and energy. He proved to be an enthusiastic traveller and real
friend on our long journeys. After winning special junior class at
Crufts, we decided to compete through the rest of the year to win
Pentabord Cup. (For his complete show results data pls. go to Star)
And we got it... it was unbelievable that Star became first and pioneer again.
First... it was yesterday too that he received the 'Chelsie' Memorial Cup founded by Forestry Farm, given by Attila Németh for the most successful FF showdog. Star saluted Chelsie (Jephanil Kamella) the very first border collie of Hungary in his own way: he won class at Crufts exactly on the day when Chelsie, his great grandma died one year before - as very first Hungarian border collie. The dog of surprises... :)
He was awarded yesterday as Club Star dog and a special prize for Crufts. We are thankful to the club officials for the awards and for the support during the year.
Many thanks to our friends in Hungary and abroad, especially Paul and Nid from Eyes of the World Kennels in Belgium and Ross Green in the UK for their support.
Goal of 2010 is to finish champion titles of further three countries (Romanian and Serb he has) and gain the International Show Champion title. We wish to collect at least one single Hungarian Best of Breed title.
We are very proud of Star for being our children's best friend and
playmate as well as our family member with Smilie and Lola. And that he
is such a great show dog...
Today we have been to Kapuvár CAC show - nice weather and venue, and we met more friends too.
And we got some brilliant results as well. Star was Best of Breed and with this CAC title he fulfilled the requirements of becoming Hungaria Show Champion. Two and a half years old he is already three countries' champion. Lola - out of coat - 2nd Ex, we were pleased to see how beautiful she was moving. At Best In Show Star with Swannie (April Swan of Bron Yr Aur) got third place in Breeding Pair, they were so lovely - many thanks to Juhos Kati for handling. Lola with her mum Swannie and half sister 'Szamóca' got second place in Breeding Group category. All wonderful results, we were very happy!
