On Saturday 24 November 2018 we held the 42^nd annual championship show at Goldfields Show Grounds. Our judge for the day was Ms Jackie Mackenzie (RSA), assisted by ring steward Mr Steve McClean. We had a decent entry of 21 Danes with all colours being represented. The scorching weather held just long enough for us to conclude judging – the downpour was most appreciated!

Our generous sponsors ensured that prizes were handsome and the entry bag for all exhibitors also contained a number of gifts. A special thank you to:

 

• Rosettes & Sashes
• Vouchers for BIS, RBPIS and BPIS
• Vouchers for every 1st place winner in the classes
• Treat buckets for each first place winner
• Biscotti packs for 2nd and 3rd places
• Biscotti packs in the entry bags

 

 

Axel’s Pet Products 

• Lounges for BIS and RBIS
• Crate bed for BPIS
