Magenta's Show Career
2003/2004 Spitz Breeds Club of South Australia
"Spitz Puppy of the Year"
Magenta commenced her show career on the weekend of the 27th/28th September, and we
are delighted with the way she performed for her first shows. She won her class on both days, going
on to win Baby
Puppy of Breed on the first day, but losing out to her brother Travis on the second
day.
At her second weekend of showing at the Wagga Wagga circuit, Magenta won the Baby bitch class on each of the four days, going on to win Baby Puppy in Group as well on one occasion.
Magenta has continued to improve as she has matured, and now has a very impressive record. By 14 months of age, she had scored the last of the points required to become an Australian Champion.
In 2005, Magenta won no less than 14 Classes in Group in the first 10 months of the year!
Despite only a handful of shows, in 2006/2007 Magenta has had some sterling results including:
 | Opposite Australian Bred in Show at the 2006 Basenji Club of Victoria Specialty |
| 2nd Open Bitch Class at the 2006 Basenji Club of New South Wales Specialty |
| 3rd Australian Bred Bitch Class at the 2007 Basenji Club of Victoria Specialty |
| Reserve Challenge Bitch at the 2006 Royal Adelaide Show |
Needless to say we are very proud of this delightful girl!
Notable firsts Magenta has brought Mzalia Basenjis...
| Our first homebred "of the Year" award winner |
Judges' Critiques...
"Feminine bitch, pleasing head, long neck, level topline. Was
feeling the cold a bit so did not give of her best & movement was a bit narrow.
Very dainty and of good size."
