We first saw Leo at the Tyne,
Wear and Tees Boxer Club in May 2007 when he was just 12 weeks old. His breeder
Edith Tindale had brought him along to her local show so that we could have a
look at him. We immediately fell for him and offered to buy him but he was not
for sale. Even at that young age his potential was obvious.
At one of his first shows, the British Boxer Club Championship show in July, Tim
gave him a very strong Minor Puppy dog class. Then in October at Midland
Counties Julie gave him Puppy dog, had him in the last four for the CC and was
very tempted to take him further, but he was still only a very young dog.
Then in December Edith phoned us up and explained that she was not going to be
able to get to as many shows as she would like but she felt that Leo deserved to
be campaigned seriously. We were over the moon when she asked us if we still
wanted to buy him and we drove up the following week to collect him!
Of course at the same time we had Lust at First Sight in the middle of his
fabulous show career but Leo did extremely well as he quickly worked his way
through the younger classes, often being in the last few for the CC.
His breakthrough came in October 2008 he won his class at Driffield under Amanda
Jinks who then went on to give him his first CC and BOB. Early in 2009 he won a
Reserve CC under South African judge Marlien Heystek at the Northern and he
notched up a good number of wins in Limit often making it down to the final few
for the CC which Max often won! Over to the Irish Boxer Club in September where
we were delighted when Johan Kieser, also from South Africa gave him his second
CC and BIS from one of the biggest entries the Irish Boxer Club has ever had.
More Limit wins followed through to the end of 2009 which meant that he would
have to compete in Open in 2010.
At the first show of the year, Manchester under Meg Purnell-Carpenter, Max couldn’t go since she gave him the ticket last time. Leo stepped manfully into his shoes, winning Open dog, the CC, Best of Breed and also Group 4 under Jack Bispham. This made him our 20th UK Boxer Champion and we were delighted. Leo won his 4th CC from Jeff Luscott at the Mancunian and a final RCC from Claire Kay at Richmond in 2012
Leo had the most fantastic Boxer personality being extremely outgoing but certainly willing to stand up for himself and the family. He had a beautiful head and expression with lovely eyes and excellent pigmentation.
We were delighted to have a dog of this quality at Winuwuk and we thank Edith for entrusting him to us.
