"Gunny"
We
are extremely proud of our girl, so please excuse a little bragging on our
behalf. Listed below are some of the highlights from Gunny's career in the
conformation ring.
Selected highlights from Gunny's show career: 2005
Despite
the fact that Gunny was only shown roughly a dozen times in 2005, and took most
of the year off to whelp her first litter, she still managed to be the #4 SMT
in Canada (#1 bitch). Gunny was awarded a group placement for each of her BOB
wins and amassed 5 Group 1st, 4 Group 2nd, 2 Group 3rd,
and a Group 4th.
Selected highlights from Gunny's show career: 2004
Gunny

Selected highlights from Gunny's show career: 2003
Gunny
went to the US for the first time in September, 2003 and returned with her
American championship! This elegant, typey young Manchester was awarded Winners
Bitch & Best of Winners
at the 2003 AMTC National Specialty for a 5-point major under judge Jim
Reynolds. The next day, Dr. Edna Martin awarded her Best of Winners again for another 5-point major at the AMTC
District IV Specialty. And finally, she went Best of Variety from the classes for her final 5-point major
under judge Virginia Lyne at the District V Specialty to complete her American
Championship! Later that day she went on to be awarded her first US group
placement, a Group 2nd
under Dr. Martin.
Upon
returning home to Canada Gunny continued her winning ways and was awarded Best
Bred By Exhibitor In Show by
Mr. Mel Beech!
During
her first year out as a special, Gunny was multiple group placing and multiple
group winning. She finished 2003 as the #1 SMT bitch in Canada, #2 SMT overall.
Quite an impressive accomplishment for such a young bitch.
Gunny
easily achieved her Canadian championship at the tender age of 9 months. At
this young age she was already a multi-group placing Manchester Terrier! The
only Manchester Terrier to beat her as a class dog was her sire, Ch. Walton's
Fast Eddie C-ROM.
