A 4 point Major under Judge Thomas Alexander for Babi today on the final day of the Candy Cane Cluster!! He was Best of Winners, and Owner Handled Best of Breed…then going on to earn Owner Handled Toy Group 4. What a fantastic boy with his fantastic girl Lily Neiser @starcrossedgoddess Our dear friends @kingdomravello_cavaliers bred a spectacular Cavalier that not only looks beautiful, but has the sweetest temperament. KINGDOM RAVELLO BABIECA. 🎉 🇪🇸 🇺🇸 💕
The Cavalier Rainbow. Ginger (Ruby), Breeze (Tri), Babi (Blenheim), and Viola (Black and Tan….she is Ginger’s mom). 🥰
Lily is turning 18, so this past weekend at Woofstock, our favorite show, was her last time to participate in Junior Showmanship (where the handler is judged, not the dog). Our friend Jasmin Becker lent her gorgeous dog Gucci for this special day. The Cavalier is a “free stack” breed, meaning they are trained to stand on their own - no hands on the dog until the table examination. So a lot of times the handler looks like they are doing “nothing” and can get overlooked. Many times Lily has shown our puppies in Juniors so they can get experience - sacrificing her chances at winning in the process. But her lovely showmanship of the Cavalier and her strong relationship to her dogs (she trains and shows all of our dogs) is always apparent. Her patience, grace, and determination are strong assets as a handler and as an individual, and I am ever so proud of her and grateful to her for her partnership. 🥰🙏
We are often asked how we can possibly let the puppies go. We love them, yes! But seeing videos like this from new puppy families makes it all worth it and then some. 🥰💕 #cavalierkingcharlesspaniel #cavalierpuppies
