CIB UK Champion, MBIS SBIS Supreme Australian Ch JC SPRD Aviva Vampire Tetra (AI)

STOP PRESS !!!!!! ~ BEST OF BREED ~ Crufts Dog Show 2024 amongst some of the best Afghan Hounds in the world then representing the breed in the main arena. Critique as follows: 🏆🏆🏆 OD (7,1) 1 Aust Ch Aviva Vampire Tetra (ai) (Lewis & Bacich & Bacich) Oh my word, what can I say? This dog took my breath away! Self cream with the most handsome head and eye shape. Chiselling to die for and that expression! The standard says “looks at and through one” … Arrogance, attitude, construction, this dog had it all. He owned the ground he stood on and commanded attention. Most beautifully presented silky coat in all the right places, natural saddle of correct texture. Long neck, well placed shoulders and excellent return of upper arm, springy pasterns, chest of correct depth, spring and length of ribcage, short strong loin which was well muscled, correct croup and a beautifully carried ring tail. Sweeping rear quarters with well developed muscle to first and second thigh, low hocks, big feet. When he moved it was a joy to watch with long easy yet powerful strides showing excellent reach and drive, accurate foot fall and true in all directions. Handled and presented to perfection. Delighted to award him the CC in very strong competition and BOB over an exquisite bitch who pushed him to the limit. - end - Winston has had a tremendous career already at barely three years.

At his very first show, 9 days into the Minor class, he was awarded Best Exhibit In Group - at arguably the biggest show in WA - the Western Classic - starting his show career in exceptional style. Since completing his championship title in style, by winning Best Exhibit in Group and Best Puppy in Show (x2) at the Perth Royal Show, he has amassed the required Best Exhibit In Groups (minimum of 10) and secured the 1000 points necessary to be crowned SUPREME CHAMPION. We express the utmost gratitude to his breeder for sending this promising young pup to Perth and supporting us on the journey, that drew us out of retirement. Winston is cheeky, loves life and his infectious, smiley personality brings joy to everyone he meets.
