SHOWS

We have been attending a lot of shows with Chili, especially during this summer and fall. Mommy is perhaps enjoying a bit more being in the ring than Chili but let's not let that bother us.

Chili graduated to Finnish Show Champion in Helsinki All Breed Show on 06.09.2008.

Chili also has two CACIBs from Finland from witch the other is awaiting confirmation.

You can read the evalutions Chili has gotten from below.
