The Midland Counties Canine Society’s Annual Championship Dog Show – 28 October 2023

The Midland Counties Canine Society held their Annual Championship Dog Show at the Staffordshire County Showground last week. The Pastoral Group breeds were shown, and the A.V. Imported Breed Register classes were judged by Richard Bott.

An early start for seven committee members and two club members who attended the Mid-Counties Championship Show with 8 of the nine Bergamascos competing on the day…from a total of 15 dogs competing in the A.V. Imported Breed Register….and a productive and fun day – from the six A.V. Imported Breed Register classes competed, Bergamascos had four wins and two second places!

Steve and Ayla Bella won the Post Graduate Bitch Class.

Steve and Bebe achieved 2nd. place in the Puppy Bitch Class.

Raych and Liio won the Post Graduate Dog Class.

Dave and Lucca followed up their Bournemouth Best Of Breed win with Reserve Best Dog.

A nervous Claire and equally nervous 9 months old Biaggio (with Mentor Steve) were pictured before their first-ever show ring appearance, and were awarded a 1st. place in the Puppy Dog Class, although, to be fair, there were two non-runners out of the three entries!
