Hogan's Show Career 2006 |
Date: 12 February 2006 Event: Guernsey Kennel Club Members' Show Judge: Mr M Pooley |
Results: Irish Wolfhound Open ~ 1st (1/2) Hound Group 4 (4/11) AV Hound Yearling ~ 1st (1/5) AV Hound Limit ~ 1st (1/5) |
Mr Pooley's critique: Lovely dog of 18 months, who excels in head. With good angulation fore & aft, super depth, allowing for plenty of heart room. He really drives from his muscular hindquarters which showed what a graceful breed it is. Full of quality throughout. |
. . . but practising his stand is another matter . . . |
. . . and as for being in the ring - 'Get me out of here, Dad!' |
Hogan enjoys making a new friend . . . |
