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.
Judge at the Open Show during Country Competition
We are stoked that Laura has been asked to judge at the Saturday Open Show during the Country Competition weekend in Limburgse Peel.

Gone, but not forgotten
Visit Špindlerův Mlýn
For the first time in a long time we went on holidays with the dogs. We travelled through Czech Republic making many nice visits to friends and family all around.
A special treat for us was a visit to Špindlerův Mlýn where we could enjoy the hospitality of X and Y, who happened to have puppies at the time.
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.
Pixie to the woods
With a new pup in our midst, we are once again taking longer walks. Obviously we had to show Pixie the forest that’s near our home.
She seemed to really enjoy the walk and immediately showed a great potential for becoming a Show Dog.
Skylark’s Young Laelaps
Today Skylark’s Young Laelaps arrived in our home. She was immediately greeted by Daedalus of Laelaps (Deùs).
New Addition to the Of Laelaps Family
It is with great pride and joy that we announce the arrival of “Pixie”.
Skylark’s Young Laelaps, which is Pixie’s official kennel name, will be joining us in our home at the beginning of October 2025. Of course more pictures will follow!
