1999 was a very busy year for us. Rhett was growing up but still had a long way to go. We did a lot of conformation shows in Europe (in 6 countries) and were even invited to stay with friends in the USA and visit the ASCA National Specialty show in Longview, Washington. Go to our "American Adventure" page and see our 4 Aussies at the Nationals. |

Rhett and Flirt (Snowcrest's Shameless Flirt) are doing well in the all breed brace classes. Here they took 2nd place in Tienen - Belgium on August 1, 1999. (handled by Debby Michielsen of Some Kind of Magic Australian Shepherds) |
On this page you can find some of Rhett's show results. Since conformation is one of our major activities, we do a lot of shows. Listing all of them would take us too far. I will give you a short discription and some nice pictures of his major results. Look for updates regularly. |
Rhett started his show career at the tender age of 12 weeks. We went to the 3-day con- formation show of the Australian Shepherd Club of Germany in Königswinter. |
He placed 2nd on the first day and took 1st place on the second day. The third day .... he was so fed up with it all .... he would not stand still for more than a second and finished on the 2nd place again. No matter, he was so cute ........ |
Later the same year, on November 7th, '98 I took Rhett to his first big International show in Rouen, France. 58 Aussies were entered. Rhett was in puppy class (6-9 months). He took 1st place, won Best Puppy and later that day went Best Puppy in Group. We had a ball ! |

May was indeed a very busy month. The biggest event in Europe that year, the FCI European Dog Show was held in the beautiful town of Tülln, 40 km from Vienna, Austria. Rhett was entered in the Junior class (9-18 months). Go to our special "European and World Dog Shows" page to see the results. |
Also in May, on the 22nd to be precise, Rhett won his first CAC (championship certificat) towards his Dutch Champions Title. 4 are needed to acknowledge this. Snowcrests Shameless Flirt was BOB and went Reserve Best in Show. |
