Go Fwarkie!!
July 18, 2010
18 months ago, if someone had have asked me which of the dogs that I bred would be the first to win a best in show, I might have answered with Ronin or maybe Bond or Hiro… possibly even Shensei or Pat. So many times these dogs were in top condition and were very close but they could never quite get there.
But last night, one of the Breilla team cracked the big one and was awarded BEST IN SHOW – and the winner was Ch Breilla QuestCe Que Cest, aka Clark or Fwarkie to his friends.
Now for those who don’t know Clark, he’s a ripper of a dog, but he’s also so incredibly focussed on everything except for showing that he would never have been a dog that I would have listed as a potential best in show winner. The way I would describe him is, ‘crazy beautiful’ – gorgeous and goofy all wrapped into one. He definitely had a spark as a young pup but I didn’t think the spark was, ‘goofball’.
So now ‘Fwarkie’ is a Best in Show winner and I couldn’t be happier.
Go Fwarkie and well done to handler Meg Ripper who has had the task of keeping up with his antics. It’s no mean feat to avoid tripping over a dog in show ring who suddenly decides to dart in front of you then freeze on point at a bird.

Yeahhhhh for Fwarkie. It’s a miracle if you can get two feet on the ground and be running in the same direction as him LOL
Two eyes on the sky at all times for Fwarkie.
I’ve lost count at the number of times he’s blown has chances and come undone, having spotted a bird, helicopter, show ride or fly. Bless him, he finally put it all together.
I know… I think I’m as happy as you right about now.
You did the intial hard yards and put the work into him and got him that first hundred points. Kudos to you too.
