She went beautifully after another 11 month break from showing, gaining a second in the Open Bitch class at the Royal and a second in the Australian Bred Bitch class at the National. These are top level competitions. Here she is moving out at The Royal.

Leia is the latest of Lily's progeny to be shown. She had a long break due to work commitments (August 2010 to January 2011). She hit the ring with all of her mother's style, gaining Runner up in Breed January 28th and Best of Breed January 29th 2011. (Beenleigh and District KC at Durack). Here she is stacked by James, who took her into Junior Handler and gained third place. Leia at Tweed River Canine Clup, March 16th, 2012. Over the weekend she got Runner Up in Group and Intermediate in Show two days running. What a way to title after another long break from showing.
Leia at twenty months. October 29th, 2011.
Louis and Wild Child join Lily in the ring. Louis and Wild Child went to their first show on May 16th, 17th and 18th 2008 at Murwillumbah show grounds. They adapted wonderfully to camping, lots of other dogs and the show ring. Lily is now retired from showing and may foray into obedience. Wild Child and Louis did well at Lismore and District Kennel club show at Alstonville (June 27, 28 and 29,2008) Both gained a Baby Puppy in Group, but Wild Child was much better behaved than Louis. Wild Child and Louis are now both Australian Champions (August, 2010)
Here's Louis in "paddock" condition. He's nowhere near ready for a show, but he will be. He is still in show coat and will be shown in 2013. 14 months since his last show and Louis gained three Best of Breeds and an Australian Bred in Group at the Tweed River Canine Club March 15,16 and 17th, 2013. He's not going to be clipped off in a hurry!!
And here's Ch Loana Wild Child giving "that look" on her trolley before a show. This is a "puppy clip". She is now a mother of ten and hopefully one more litter this year. (2013)
Louis hit the show circuit in style, winning Best of Breed at the Tweed River Canine Club Championship show 19/3/10. He also got Runner Up in Breed the following two days. After a 12 month break!
Ringside and looking at me - as they do...kind of wild eyed...I would kill for a decent photographer....
Not a good hair day...Louis at Kyogle and District Kennel Club show. June 13th, 2010. He gained a Dog Challenge and a Runner up in Breed.
Louis recently gained his Australian Champion title and followed up with a nice Intermediate in Group at the Combined Northern Rivers Ch. Show on Saturday August 21st, 2010.
Leia gained the Bitch Challenge on the same day, then went on to be beaten by her big brother, Louis. she is now titled and still in the ring (2013)
