Today our little Pixie competed in the Holland Cup 2026.
We are very proud to celebrate her first Best of Breed qualification!
Holland Cup 2026
N.B.T.C. Dr. Cohen Memorial Trophy Show
Today was a busy day.
N.B.T.C. organises the Dr. Cohen Memorial Trophy Show for all dogs who achieved a CAC during the previous 12 months.
Next to that, they organise a Young Dog Day and a Clubmatch at the same venue on the same day. Pixie was not eligible for the Trophy Show, but she did compete in the other two events.
Young Dog Day
Today our little Pixie competed in the Young Dog Day organised by N.B.T.C.
As the only entry in her class, she was declared the winner.
Sadly she wasn’t chosen as the best bitch of the day.
Clubmatch
With several entries in her class she didn’t catch the judge’s eye and was placed fourth. Obviously we are still very proud of how she performed throughout the day.
Dr. Cohen Memorial Trophy Show
Laura was asked to be the official Referee for this event, considering we wouldn’t have any dogs competing. She was called upon for the very last decision of the day, because the judges couldn’t decide for the overall winner of the Dr. Cohen Memorial Trophy.
Continental European Trophy Show
Skylark’s Young Laelaps, “Pixie”, (UKCH Kirkville Tokyo Jo X Skylark’s Until Crack Of Dawn), was placed first in Youth Class Bitches. (At 9 months old, with 11 entry’s!)
We are obviously very proud of this result and we hope she will continue to surprise us.
Dutch Bullterrier Weekend – Open Show
Today Skylark’s Young Laelaps, a.k.a. Pixie, competed in her first show at the Open Show during the Dutch International Bullterrier Weekend.
Sadly she wasn’t placed, but we were very happy with how she behaved in the ring. We are certain she will soon be getting nice results at local shows.
2024 NBTC International Weekend
Just like every year the NBTC organised an International Weekend in November.
With an Open Show on the Saturday and the fabulous Country Competition on Sunday.
One of the puppies from our latest litter competed in the Open Show on Saturday and was awarded 3rd place in his class!
Congratulations to Kastor of Laelaps a.k.a. “Baron”!
Dr. Cohen Memorial Trophy Show 2023
Today Isidro of Laelaps, a.k.a. Ozzy, competed at the Dr. Cohen Memorial Trophy Show organised by the N.B.T.C. and won the Steadfast Thomas of Hardra Trophy for Best Colored Dog.
These beautiful pictures were made by Alice van Kempen the day of the show.
Thank you Alice!
And thanks to the judge; Wim Wellens!
Congratulations to his owner, Catharina Zdunczyk, and of course to Ozzy himself!!
Champion
Today the lovely Isidro of Laelaps became Best of Breed and Winner 2022 at the Dutch Winner Show in Leeuwarden.
With this result he also becomes Dutch National Champion. We would like to thank judge John Williams (NL) for thinking so highly of him.
And we want to congratulate his owners with this fantastic accomplishment.
Judging B.T.C.B. Young Dog day
Today I had the honour of judging the Young Dog day for Bull Terrier Club Belgium.
It was a very nice day and being able to see the potential for the future of bullterriers was a real joy.
Judging Clubmatch Bullmastiff Vereniging Nederland
On this day I was invited together with Sophie de Beer to judge the Clubmatch for the Bullmastiff Vereniging Nederland in Benschop (Utrecht).
I was honored to be judging the bitches during the morning and then allowed to discuss the overall winners with my collegue in the afternoon.
C.E.T.S. 2022
Just like every year the Bull Terrier Club Belgium (B.T.C.B.) organised the Continental European Trophy Show today. This year we were represented by Isidro of Laelaps in the category Coloured Dogs. He was shown beautifully by Henk Birkhoff (Satyricon Bullterriers).
