Brighton Kennel Club Show
Judges: Ms M Clegg (Vic) & Mr P Luyten (Vic)

Goldie on the day she won Best in Show!

Check out her show results below!

Mzalia Private Benjamin (11 months)When evaluating our 2004 litter of pups produced by Giambi and Debbie, there were two very promising - and very disarmingly cute and affectionate girls, and I was delighted to be able to send Goldie to Stan and Eileen Laycock of Eilsta Basenjis in Tasmania.

Mzalia Private Benjamin (11 months)A very feminine youngster, with a stunning coat, good topline and tailset, Goldie has the most wonderful movement and show ring attitude. Around the house she is proving a delight to live with: very playful and she just loves to get cuddles when strangers visit.

Goldie's Show Career started in early September 2004, and she has taken the ring by storm. She made a great start, winning multiple Baby Puppy in Group Awards in her first 4 shows. This success has continued on as an adult, with multiple Runner-up in Groups, Classes in Show and more Class in Group wins on the way to becoming an Australian Champion.

Of course the highlight of her career is that wonderful Best in Show in November 2005!

On a trip I made to Tasmania in April 2005, it was a real thrill to handle her to a nice Best of Breed win. And it was wonderful to see she still had that wonderful loving, outgoing and cheeky nature she displayed when she lived with us

We wish Stan and Eileen (and her regular handler Griff of Parnew Whippets) continued success with Goldie.
