During the dogshow in Berghem Nino de Bruine Buck got 1U CAC & BOB in openclass. Judge this day was Mr. Stradmann. Nino herewith got the title DUTCH Champion and got the Dutch selection title pE (hipscore, caractertest and showresults). The four CAC's necessary for getting the Dutch title were won in only seven shows and all four times he got Best of Breed.

During the international dogshow in Rotterdam Bentho ibn Greco de Bruine Buck got 1U CAC/CACIB & BOB in openclass. Judge this day was Mr. Reinders. Nino herewith got the title DUTCH Champion and got the Dutch selection title pE (hipscore, caractertest with highest possible score and showresults). After Nino, Bentho is the second Groenendael male out of the combination Greco de la Grande Lande x Kim de Bruine Buck who got the title Dutch Champion (and pE). This is a great result because we only got two Groenendael males out of this combination. Herewith we congratulate the owners of Bentho ibn Greco, Jolanda and Duncan de Bruin and wish them luck with the IPO training with Bentho.
