Best Veteran in Show - HCEA June'08

 Joshua was whelped in our first litter of Hamiltons.  From day one he stood out & was never going anywhere.  His record in the showring is outstanding, and to reach such dizzy heights with our first homebred Hamilton was amazing.  He is a real character, just like his mother, and a real gent.   He has been a fantastic ambassador for the breed at Discover Dogs and children of all ages adore getting into the pen & giving him a cuddle, even falling asleep with him as a pillow!  He is a total Mummy's boy and has eyes for no-one else.  When rabbiting he is incredibly obedient and will do as I ask willingly, although sometimes he is a bit cheeky!

 

At the age of 7 years old he came out of "semi retirement" to win veteran dog & take Reserve Best Dog at Crufts 2007

Joshua wins another veteran class at Richmond champ show '08 & then wins reserve Best Dog...

At the nearly 8 years old at the final champ show of 2007 he then won Best of Breed, the 6th progeny of Hattie's to do so in 2007 alone..

In 2008 Joshua continued his winning ways, only having a few outing yet winning BOB at both S/Cos & Darlington Champ shows...Our little star!!

Joshua's first litter was born on the 25th January - see puppies & "bred by us" pages.  And already they are taking after their sire, in looks & temperaments.  If they have half the sucecss of their famous Dad we will be over the moon.  No need is there, to ask who is the Dad of Harry, pictured below at 8 weeks old...
