N S CH NW-03 CUBILON'S HANN-HUND HOMMAGE

pet name MARTIN - THE BIS-DOG!

When making a summary of the show-season 2003,  it's been a fantastic year! Again! It went out to be a "Martin-year". He has attended 12 dogshows, and take a brief look at these results:

10 x BOB, 1 x BOS and one 2nd best male! Under 11 different judges. And in the final rings he did it as well:

1 x BIS

2 x BIG

2 x 3rdBIG

1 x 4thBIG

in addition to the title NORWEGIAN WINNER 2003  ( NW-03)

NKK's Int Dog Show in Trondheim, June 2003:

BOB - Martin and BOS - Bodil

In September Martin reached another peak for the kennels history; he became BIS at a big national dogshow!

Ester has done well, in her 11th year. She has gained 8 times CK, and been placed as BIS-2 veteran 3 times! The other dogs has also done well, ex Bodil has 4 x BOS, and 1 x BOB. Gaus has just seen the tail-lights from Martin, but he is pretty close... He did manage to receive 2 x BOB, 4thBIG and 5thBIG.

The kennel's breeder-groups has 8 x HP, and Ester's progeny-group has this year received 5 x HP, and been placed in the Final-rings.

Martin's progeny-group won BIS at the biggest International Dog-Show at Hamar! At that time his offspring was 9 months old! Congratulation to Martin's  owner -Hilde S, and the breeder of the offsprings -Hilde G!

The Pyrenean Mountaindog Club of Norway has an annual competition of show-results through the year. Martin became the most-winning male in 2003! Gaus was 5th. For the females, I think Bodil is 4th, Ester 6th, and Helga 7th. Not bad at all!

KENNEL CUBILON'S BREEDER-CLASS AT OTTA, 2003

Bodil wouldn't give us any puppies this year either. So it's may be safer to wait for Helga? She will be mated during spring 2004.

But it also happens sad things in the doggy-world.

The 23th of October Heike left Hilde, Rayek and Martin. He will be remembered as a "once-in-a-lifetime-dog". Thanks to Hilde S for her love with him, and for given him a good life.

At 23th of December Embla left here family with Ellen, Erik and Karna. She will always be a bit special for me, Embla lived with me for the first 2 1/2 years of her life. Many thanks to Ellen! I know Embla could not have got a better home!

The very last time the E-litter siblings met, in Gustav Vigeland-park in Oslo.
