Thanks for the video link. Win or lose it's always wonderful to watch our breed in the ring….such dignity and grace, especially when there is a mandatory sit and scratch on the agenda:D
@wizard:
I'm sorry but that Pekinese, even though it has won before, is still just a waddling caterpiller to me.
My picks would have been the Dalmation, Doberman, or GS.
With a Pekinese you aren't sure what is underneath that coat. He may have wonderful bone structure. With the smooth coated breeds you see what you get, no chance of hiding anything with hair there.
I might be late in the game, here. But have you seen this video? I like that they make a nod to Basenji naughtiness!

Thanks for the info guys, really appreciate it, especially about the way AOM works, as it is totaally foreign to our show rings. It may happen at some breeds specialties, but that would be all :)
@basi:
Good luck to you both Petra & Irena, look forward to seeing the pics:D
Many thanks! I think we will need that :D. There are going to go 72 Bs, Masai has another 8 boys in the youth class and Petra's Mody has 15 :eek: another girls there!
I will try to take tons of pics :D.
Welcome to Sweden!
I will show up with my dogs. I just noticed that it will be close to 150 Basenjis here at the show. Just crossing my fingers that the weather will be ok, yesterday we had over 100 mm of rain in just a couple of hours…
Cool! You got some good ones in there. I'm excited to go someday now. You only get a glimpse of basenjis if you're lucky on the televised shows. Thanks for sharing.
