We now almost have reached the end
of this exhibition year and we may come to the conclusion that this has
been a fantastic succesfull year for us. Our dogs won so much and it
really makes us feel so proud. For the year 2005 we plan a few littters
and as a result of this we may be not as often at the shows as this year.
November 27: Amsterdam-WINNER. We are incredible proud that Hi Jinx Amirah "Amirah" won her 2nd junior title: "Junior-Winner 2004". And what's more, she wins the reserve championship ticket. Kendo of the Willow Tay "Kendo" wins the male junior class, but frankly it was so disappointing that his qualification, just as the other males in his class, was a "very good", meaning that the junior-title is not being awarded. Judge was Mrs. Anita Gielisse, who judged the 22 entered Shibas. |

The good thing of autumn/winter is the fact that our dogs put on their winter coats again and the big important shows are there again. On October 15 it was Dortmund's Bundessieger-Zuchtschau (Germany), one of Europe's most prestigious dog shows. And our dogs did fabulous. Tiny and Albert Hensema's own bred male, Kendo of the Willow Tay "Kendo", now living at daughter Sonja's place, won, from the junior class, the title "Bundesjugendsieger 2004". The same, now with the females, did Hi Jinx Amirah "Amirah". She did became "Bundesjugendsiegerin 2004". Ch. Hi-Jinx Amity "Amity", after her litter, slowly returning to her top-condition, was awarded with best female en the title "Bundessiegerin 2004". Oh yeah... Pat Doescher of "Hi-Jinx"-kennels was very very proud! To complete this list of winners...: the beautiful male, Ch. We-Sedso Zen Kessaku, owned and bred by Jytte and Helle Röschke won best male and BOB. The judge, responsible for these results, was Mrs. Assenmacher-Feyel from Germany. |

February 22, 2004. It turned out to be a very nice day in Gent. The by now "well-known" Japanese delegation settled in Belgium's Gent, where this "Specialty for Japanese Breeds" was held at the same time as the 40th Flanders Dog Show. Mr. Toshitsugu Watanabe, until now unknown as a judge in Europe, was invited to judge the 31 entered Shibas. De quality of the Shibas was of a very high level, among other 6 males in the champion class. Hi-Jinx Mmm Mmm Good "Campbell", owned by our good friends Jytte and Helle Röschke from Germany won best male with CAC-CACIB. The first place in champion class males was for Ch. Seiryu Go Niigata Kiyosatosow "Sumo". He received res.CAC-res.CACIB. Best female, CAC-CACIB was Ch. Hi-Jinx Amity "Amity". The res.CAC-res.CACIB was for Hi-Jinx Dressed in Black, winning today the title of "International Champion". The second prize in the male champion class was for Jytte and Helle's Ch. Hi-Jinx Spruce "Spruce". Campbell, who also won his title of "International Champion", was Best Of Breed. Needless to say that Mrs. Pat Doescher from Hi-Jinx kennels was totally "over the moon" with these wonderful results of the dogs that she bred. Credit to Mrs. Karen Drentlaw as well, for she is Campbell's co-breeder. |
