Showing in Canada/Canadian Championship

Basenji Showing
  • **I was reading an older thread about someone winning a 2 pt major in Canada.
    That have me confused.

    I lived and showed in Canada years and years ago, and we didn't need
    to have any majors then. Just 10 points, can be 10 singles beating
    one other dog in 10 shows, VIOLA, you got your Canadian Championship.

    I know that the CKC is talking about adding a "major" requirement to
    make the championship a bit more challenging.
    So what is the new requirement now?
    How does one obtain a Canadian Championship?
    Maybe I should google it before I ask, but I figure those who show
    in Canada can explain it to me a little bit better.

    THANKS in advance! :rolleyes:**

  • Hi Stef-how have you been. I haven't seen much of you in the last couple of years. You probably don't remember me though. I'm usually with Lynn Arrand and Sue Wilcox.

    If your dog is CKC registered, we require 10 points including at least one 'major' (two points or more). It's not super hard to obtain a championship-unless you have a black as I do. Black is pretty well always dead last. But now they do require one two point win.

    The only problem is that we kind of have to co-ordinate a show. Since there aren't many of us, we get together and decide which shows we will be entering. It's more like a friendly event than competition. It's fun and a social event for us if you can imagine.

    @Borbasuk: I have judged a couple of overseas specialties and have found my efficient and helpful stewards to be worth their weight in gold; they always are of course, but with an unfamiliar system and language this is even more true.:) That is so true, a good ring steward is for sure worth their weight in gold regardless of the situation. I have nothing but the greatest respect for a good ring steward…... and I can image being in a situation that you are in a strange country with different judging procedures how much the judge would rely on the ring steward

    @lvoss: If you can find a copy, I would recommend trying to get a hold of a copy of the Basenji Stacked and Moving by Robert Cole. They are no longer in print and can get quite expensive but every so often you can luck upon a copy that is reasonably priced. Here is an online copy: http://www.basenjiclubofcanada.com/BCOC-BobCole.html
