NKK International Lillestrøm - Norwegian Winner

I'd entered Esso and Vita for this years Norwegian Winner Show at Lillestrøm. It moved from Hamar to Lillestrøm this year, to a much larger location - although the parking area was not designed for all the dogpeople cars that arrived!

There were 32 IGs entered for whippetbreeder Arne Foss, Norway. Not all showed, but 24-25 IGs were there. Esso won championclass, then went best male and NV-09!! He also won breed over N Ch NV-09 Dogcastle's Leslie Blue Angel!

We got picked in group for top 6, but were not among the 4 placed.
BIG + BIS-4 - whippet - INT NORD UCH NV-07 Siprex Siri
BIG-2 - greyhound - N S UCH JWW-08 NV-08 KBHV-09 Showline Sporting Step
BIG-3 - scottish deerhound - Manticorns Isabella
BIG-4 - afghan hound - USA NORD UCH NV-08 Elan Sebring The Matrix

Vita was placed as 3rd in juniorclass with HP.

Critic Esso:
Overall very pleasing. Good size, good proportions. Pretty, "expressionfull" eyes. Good shape of head, nice ears. Typical neck, good topline. Appropriate body, well angulated hindquarters. Good movements, excellent coat. Shown well, excellent temperament.

Critic Vita:
Pleasing junior, very feminine. Expressionfull eyes, correct bite. Head a tad rounded. Promising front, good topline. Well angulated hindquarters. Short body, good proportions. Moves quite well, but can do better. Very well shown. Nice temperament.

Since Esso went BOB, we went to get his photo taken for "Hundesport", where they present all BOB-winning dogs from the Norwegian Winner Show in their first issue in 2010! Just waiting for the photo to be uploaded to the photographers webpage, I want to see how it turned out! Until then, I'm posting a ringside photo taken by Ludmilla (hope it's ok!).

Esso will now be known as Int* Nord Ch NV-08-09 Biscotti Esclusivo

*pending FCI confirmation
