Great success for young Jeff at the triple show in Klagenfurt

The beginning of July belonged to Klagenfurt, Austria, where a marathon of two international and one national show, the International Shows Klagenfurt - Wörthersee (2x CACIB + 1x CAC), took place from July 4 to July 5, 2026. Our breeding kennel Dukes of the South was represented in the junior class by Jeff. He brings home from Austria not only great results in the form of 2x Exc 1 CAJC, CACIB-J and BOS, but above all the joy of a well-functioning teamwork in the ring.

Before this show, we decided to take a major step, and Jeff entered the ring with a new handler. The goal was to take his presentation to the next level and help him fully show his potential. This change proved to be the right choice. The new partnership clicked perfectly from the very first moment, which was immediately reflected in Jeff's calmness and confidence during the presentation.

In the strong competition of the international show by Lake Wörthersee, Jeff presented himself in excellent condition. The judges appreciated his typical breed type and harmonious movement. The resulting grades and titles are confirmation for us that Jeff is growing into a quality representative of the breed. He handled the show atmosphere with complete calmness and professionalism, which is just as important to us as the awards themselves.

This successful weekend in Austria is a great motivation for us. We are definitely not stopping with this result, quite the contrary – Jeff is just warming up in the junior class and we are already looking forward to the next challenges that await us in the show rings. We would like to thank the new handler for the great work and Jeff for his constant willingness to work.
