🌟 STAR DOG 2020 🌟
I'm excited to announce the Star Dog of 2020 is Bentley!!
Bentley is a Podenco Ibicenco, also known as an Ibizan Hound, who landed on his paws when he arrived in the UK and Jo and Graeme failed as Foster parents, adopting him officially in Oct last year.
I was lucky enough to meet him as soon as he arrived, so have seen first-hand the incredible transformation this boy has made.
This would not have happened were it not for the commitment, energy and love that Graeme and Jo have given him. Their passion for the breed is incredible and all three of their Pods have thrived.
My decision to give this award to Bentley is based on all of the above, my knowledge and understanding of how difficult this breed can be to train 'traditionally' and how proud I was when Bentley and Graeme passed their Kennel Club Good Citizen Bronze award this year- even more amazing given that training was stopped during both lockdowns!
Well done, I'm so proud of everyone who has achieved their goals this year and eternally thankful for your support ❤
