Shetland Sheepdog 10.8.2014

There were 149 Shelties under two judges. Bitches were judged by Guy Devons, kennel Grandgables. Vicway Million Dollar Baby "Chili" was two weeks too old to take part in the junior class so she was entered in intermediate. And very surprisingly, she won it! It was a very odd feeling to be inside the ring during the best bitch finals. After all this litter was almost solely bred for agility purposes.

"Irwi" was owned and handled in agility by Pekka Ikonen.
