The Showdogs.co.za Breed Leaderboard for 2011 has been released.

Points are earned at all KUSA-affiliated breed championship shows, including All-breeds, Group, Part-group, Specialty shows, as well as the KUSA Nationals and FCI CACIB shows.

Points are allocated to Best of Breed winners equal to the number of dogs entered in the breed (eg. if there are 14 dogs entered in the breed, the Best of Breed winner earns 14 points)

The Weimaraner rankings for 2011:

Our fifth Championship Show on 17 September was a great success.

A sincere word of thanks to the Gundog Club for making it possible to have our dogs assessed by Mr. Chris Bexon from the U.K.

Then, I must thank the following sponsors for making the day

VetScript
Eukanuba
Dunstone Winery
HTC for donating a cellphone
Klub members who donated cash & goods (names are elsewhere on the website)

Last, but not least I must thank my Committee who did such a sterling job, especially Beryl van Druten & Jessica who pulled out all the stops to make such wonderful gifts & prizes.

This year we have a judge from the Netherlands officiating at the show, Mrs G Halff van Boven

Please, consider entering for the show this year. As always we need a minimum of 20 dogs entered and present for us to keep our Championship Show license. However we also need a very good entry for Mrs Halff van Boven. She judges extensively in Europe, where specialist breed clubs have entries from 150-800 dogs. We cannot let Weimaraners in South Africa down!

If you have never showed before, but want to enter, please let us know immediately on info@weimaraner.co.za or by phone on 082 750 3172 or (011) 979-5065. If there is enough interest the committee will hold training sessions.

Then we are also asking members for donations for prizes:

1. Items like caps, bags, T-shirts, etc
2. Adverts in our Catalogue
3. Small cash donations, which we can use to purchase more prizes if necessary.

Hoping to see the whole Club entered and present on 12 September 2010!
