CHAMPIONNAT DE FRANCE - 2 & 3 JUIN 2018
Surprise, surprise. Not quite the day I expected. O.P.I. (No Stopping Me Now) was 1st in the Junior Bitch class and went on to be Best Junior and finally - and there I was thrilled - SHE WENT BEST OPPOSITE SEX, i.e. BEST BITCH at ten months' old - beating the winners of the CAC and the CACIB and the reserves. This placing opens the door to being shown at Crufts next March.
Yala was 2nd in the Open Bitch class and went on to win the Reserve CAC and Joy gave me the pleasure of taking 2nd place in the Intermediate Bitch class.
I fixed myself a blueprint of the breed way back in 1977 when I started. My idea of what represented the standard. My total love for Labradors goes way back to 1957. The blueprint hasn't changed since the beginning. I've seen different "fashions" in our breed come and go, which meant some years I did really well and some years I did less well, depending on how the judge was fashion-conditioned. It didn't bother me because winning was and is only a very, very small part of what I'm trying to do. I don't breed to win, and I don't breed to make money. I breed to maintain the Labradors who carry my kennel name at the level of excellent conformation, sound character and personality, healthy bodies and good working ability. With a lot of DNA testing to filter and eliminate problems, which is a relatively new tool for breeders. Shows are essentially useful for showing you what is happening in the breed globally.
I don't know how much longer I shall be able to go on breeding. Showing is extremely difficult as I need someone else to move my dogs , and my health is poor, making travelling and showing painful and complicated. But when I go (depart, die, evaporate, disappear, am put to sleep, move to cloud 9), I'd like for TINTAGEL WINDS to be remembered for quality, continuity, honesty.
Sunday was a wonderful day, it gave me a tremendous morale-boost. I can only say how much gratitude I feel for those who helped me over the week-end - Jean-François Nerault and his family, Laurent Crepin and his family too, and the encouragement of long-time friends and long-time T.W. owners,
And an immense thank-you to my dogs for their civilized behaviour, their will to please and their joy in being there . . . and their results.
