This years most shining star of the kennels has without hesitations been Qiwi! His owners has done such a great job presenting him at his best at all times which turned out rewarding them having him placed as #3 Dog Of The Year all breed KC stats. We are so incredible proud over this! It feels amazing to in six years of time have had two Faouziah's PH's placed amongst the top five KC Dog Of The Year. This year with Qiwi as #3 and in 2004 his mother Juno as #4. We are so grateful Jenny & Jocke! Thank you!
During the year Qiwis sister Alice and brother Ilo has also done well in the rings as has many more. And at our special "Stora Specialen" we had both Best Breeders Group and Best Progeny Group (under Juno). At the World Winners Show in Denmark we were also rewarded both Best Breeders Group and Best Progeny (under Juno) which went as high as BIS-2-Progeny Group! We also got one WW-title with us home as Juno won Best Veteran in the breed with the WW Veteran title. :)
This was also the year we started competeing Adam in Rally Obediance. This sport still being unofficial in Sweden for now. Adams best placement during the year was at the trial held by the Swedish PH's club were Adam ended up 2nd with the reward "Judges Favourite". The summer of 2010 also gave us our new and very welcome little mascot namely the Podengo Portugese Liso/Pequeno Pytte! It's going to be fun to see what the future holds for her at ours.
Finaly we are proud to once again have been rewarded PH Breeder Of The Year! 1000 x Thank You goes to all our puppy buyers and friends who made that possible! :X

Last show of the year and so much at stake for Jenny Hall and Jocke Gustavsson and their Qiwi. Just nine days before the show he turned 2 years old and all ready he was placed #3 on the Swedish Kennel Club list Dog Of The Year. To beat the incredible Poodle who was safe as #1 was impossible... BUT if things went bad for us Qiwi could drop a bit on the list. So the breed was nervouse buisness but as usual Jenny handled Qiwi to perfection and he won the breed and with this got that final CC for his championship title! In the group we where almost as nervous but didn't need to, Qiwi won Group 1st! No placement in the Best In Show this day but we acctually didn't care. We where so happy that Qiwi had defended his spot on the list. Congrats also to Simon Hansen and his Izzie for the BOS win.
THANK YOU JENNY AND JOCKE FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE CAMPAIGNING QIWI DURING THIS YEAR!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
