Vizsla Wins Best in Show at Crufts
Yogi the Hungarian Vizsla.
Yogi is owned by Naomi Cragg and Kathryn Armstrong from Carlisle, Cumbria and was handled by John Thirlwell.
John Thirlwell, said: “It hasn’t sunk in, it is just so surreal. Yogi is seven now and has had a fantastic year. We are just absolutely delighted!“
The Reserve Best in Show went to Rico, a Scottish Terrier, owned by Valentina Popova from Russia.
Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Communications Director, said: “We give our congratulations to Naomi, Kathryn and Yogi who has taken the prestigious Best in Show Award.
“DFS Crufts is a celebration of healthy, happy dogs which recognises the special and unique bond between dogs and their owners.
“Anybody who has been watching the television coverage provided by More4 will have seen the wonderful diversity of dogs, the fact that they truly are fit for function and how much dogs and people enrich each other’s lives.”
Two independent vets have launched a podcast to help owners strengthen their bond with pets. Dr Maggie Roberts and Dr Vanessa Howie, who have worked in both veterinary practice and major charities, are keen to use their experience to enable people to give pets a better life.
