TYRA NEWS FROM EURO WINNER SHOW IN LEEUWARDEN, NETHERLANDS!

Multi Jr. Ch. TsarShadow's The Art Of War ("Tyra") repeated her fantastic World Winner performance by going Best Jr. In Breed and then on to 2nd place in another impressive Junior Group!!! These are unprecedented placements by such a young Bear Dog bitch.

My thanks to Best of Breed judge - Jorgen Hindse (Denmark) and especially Group judge - Bo Skalin (Finland).
But most of all, to my fantastic, wonderful friends and handlers, Richard Hellman and Roberta ("Roby") Semenzato:-)) You're the *BEST*!

_______________________________________________
UPDATE 08/18/11:
Have a look at Tyra's latest win!!! Reserve Best Junior in Show of all breeds at Luxembourg International dog show, PLUS BOB *and* adult Group 3rd!!!!! She could be the best I've ever had....

_______________________________________________

Tyra- shown by Richard Hellman, is now Jr. World Winner/Best Jr. in Breed/Best Bitch in Breed at the World Dog Show in Paris, France!

She was not awarded the CACIB for Best Bitch as she is not old enough - at 14 mos she is too young for the title of adult World Winner.

ADDITIONALLY - today (July 9th) she was Jr. BIG2!!!! (FCI Group V) There was a Group entry of approx. 5,000 dogs; no idea how many Jrs, but I'd guess 5-700.
