On Sat 18th June 2011 the Whippet Club Of Ireland held their annual Speciality Show & "Bracken" Collooney Mamma Mia was awarded Best Veteran In Show by UK breed specialist Judge Mrs Anne Snelgrove of the "Huntinghill" affix. "Tawny" Mossbawnhill All Eyes On Me made her ring debuts that day (we had an all breed Ch show prior to this one) & managed to take Best Baby Puppy Bitch at both, "Folly" M.U Bet I Am won the Open Bitch class while her mother "Teazel" M.Turn Up The Sun was 3rd in the same class & another daughter was 4th and finally "Pebble" UK,IR,INT Ch. M.It's All Bout Me (Euro Winner 09) & her brother IR & INT Ch. M.Exclusive (Celtic Jun Winner 08) were both 2nd in their Champion classes.
"Teazel" Mossbawnhill Turn Up The Sun took BOB & Grp 3rd at Lisburn DCC open show under judge Mr Steve Atkinson (Hollinswell) from England on Sun 29th May despite pretty awful weather conditions,which definitely were NOT ideal for whippets!!
Teazel has been very lightly shown due to her being a slow maturing bitch & us campaigning her half sister "Pebble" & daughter "Folly",despite this she has 1 UK CC & is very rarely unplaced both in the UK & Ireland on the few occassions when she has been shown..Sunday was one of those 'rare' occassions & she certainly did'nt disappoint despite the fact that it was so windy that it was very difficult to keep upright at times & the tape around the ring ended up wrapped around her legs & then in the challenge she had a loose boxer chasing her & wanting to play on her way back to the judge on the "to the corner & back" bit! lol But she obviously had done enough to suitably impress the judge & she was awarded BOB & then Grp 3rd. We are very pleased with how Teazel is looking at the minute & are hoping to campaign her more both here in Ireland & England.
Teazel's daughter "Folly" Mossbawnhill U Bet I Am (Jun Ch.) won the Grad dog/bitch class & in the Open dog/bitch class that Teazel won,her mum "Bracken" Collooney Mamma Mia was 2nd to her & 3rd was a grand daughter of Bracken's & a neice of Teazel's "Damson" Mossbawnhill Smooth As Silk For Rushden & her son "Smoke" Rushden Where There's Smoke With Mossbawnhill was 3rd in the Jun dog/bitch class.
A big thankyou to the judge Mr Steve Atkinson for braving the weather & appreciating our dogs.
We are VERY proud to say that "Toni" Mossbawnhill Celtic Legacy who is owned by sisters Natalia Malyarenko & Julia Eliseeva in Russia can now add the title of Ukraine Champion to his ever lengthening list of titles.....He has now accumulated Russian Ch.,Belarus Ch.,Moldova Ch.,Kazakhstan Ch. & Ukraine Ch. titles along with his Junior Ch. & International Champion titles!!!! And to add to that he also has to his name 6 CACIB's,4 BPIB's,a BPIS,2 Best Jun In Show,6 Grp 1st's & a 3rd BIS!!
Proud????.............You Betcha!!
MANY CONGRATS!! to you both & "Toni" too of course!

We really are delighted to announce that we now have our third homebred Int Ch. at Mossbawnhill (subject to IKC confirmation) as "Badger" Ir & now Int Ch. Mossbawnhill Better Man gained his last CACIB yesterday (Sat 23rd April 2011) at Combined Canine Int Show under judge Mrs K Sjong from Denmark. "Badger" was awarded the Res CACIB but this will be allowed as a CACIB as the dog that took the CACIB & eventually BOB is already an Int Ch.
Thankyou to the Judge for appreciating "Badger" & giving him his Int crown.
