Huri Hulus Out & About!

Saturday 15th July was Camborne Show. The show has something for everyone, including agricultural classes for all kinds of livestock from bullocks to rabbits and everything inbetween! There was a bit of a family gathering with the youngest member of the 'Camborne Clan' making his debut out and about. Huri Hulus (a.k.a Gin), five and a half months old met up with his bigger half sister Huri Hazine of Hisar, and his uncle Arkadas TuzlaZevrek (a.k.a Diesel) at ringside for the dog show. Gin didn't actually take part himself, as he's not quite six months, but the main aim for Dawn and Mark, his owners, was to get him out and about socializing with people dogs, and all manner of four legged creatures appearing at the show! Our rare breed also met up with another rare breed - the Northern Inuit Dog, of which there was a stunning pair. The Anatolians attracted a lot of attention as did the Inuits, and all were impeccably behaved. Hazine took 2nd in the AV Non-Sporting class, only to be beaten by a Standard Poodle, who went on to take Best In Show. I understand a fantastic day was had by all :-)

Best Of Breed - Paignton 2006

Paignton Championship Show was held yesterday (12th July 2006). The judge for Anatolian Shepherd Dogs was Mr Vernon Miles of the Kurtkir kennel. Vernon has been involved in Anatolian's since the mid 80's, and has been an owner, breeder and exhibitor for all of this time.

The entry for Anatolians was good, 18 in total. There were a couple of absentee's on the day, but the dogs present were all excellently behaved and well presented for our judge, as well as being wonderful ambassadors for our breed.

Huri had good results on the day, with tricolour Tuzla Tulin of Huri coming 3rd in the Post Graduate Bitch class, and Huri Hazine of Hisar being awarded 1st place in the same class. Hazine then went on to take Best Bitch, and Best Of Breed.

A wonderful day, wonderful weather and wonderful results.

Meet Huri Hazar

"Hi, I'm Huri Hazar, or Mr D to my friends. They call me Mr D coz I've got a diamond shape on my neck."

"I'm still living at home in the Huri household with mummy, and my big huge gigantic half brother Hakem. Great Auntie Tulin also lives with us, and Gem Gem the cat, and Pen, the really ancient cat."

"I'm really looking forward to getting out and about to meet some of you guys, and Sal says she's going to take me to one of those show things but I'm a bit little at the moment. My mum goes a lot, and also Auntie Tu. They're real pro's at this showing game. My big half sister hasn't done too bad either, and apparently, in 2005, she won Best Bitch and Best Opposite Sex to her daddy somewhere called 'Crufts'. Mummy and Auntie Tu told me that I might be able to go there next year if I'm a really good boy. Apparently only the best dogs go there, so you can betcha life I'm gonna be there coz I'm a really cool dude!"

"Anyhow, I've got to go and catch some more puppy ZZZZzzzzzzz's now - handsome boy like me needs my beauty sleep. Bye for now!"

Hannah Steals The Limelight!

Just had an update on Huri Hanim, a.k.a Hannah. Her owners Brian and Cerys Tyson write as follows:

"Today we entered Hannah in the local companion show, she was in A.V Pastoral/Working Puppy (4mth-12mth, not K.C ruled), and in Prettiest Bitch in a novelty class.

She amazed us by coming 4th in a class of 11 for the A.V Pastoral/Working Puppy Class and then in the Novelty Class Prettiest Bitch took 1st place beating the other 9 exhibits!

We met up with our local friends and Hannah enjoyed every minute playing with the other pups, and she loves strawberry ice cream.

P.S. Zeb was not happy being outshone by this young pup he managed a 4th out of a class of 15 in A.V Working/Pastoral Open...."
