Maverick was only shown 14 times: 1 day in February 2012, double show in October 2012, 4 days show in May 2013, double show in July 2013, absolutely NO show in 2014, 1 day in Mayi 2015 and double show in June 2015 - and that was it. He gained this success: 11 CAC (class winner), 8 CACIB (Winners Dog), 4 BOB and 4 BOS. At his very first show at the age of nearly 9 months he was 2012 Best Puppy In Show Budapest, furthermore, he went 2013 Transilvania Winner, 2012 second best show dog of the Austria toy breed club and Best Chinese Crested Austria 2013. This way he gained three European championships (Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary) and the FCI International Beauty Champion. For us this success of Maverick is amazing with so few shows, and we are happy that he stepped a bit into the paw prints of his sire Keanu (Multi-Champ. WL THE DEVILS ADVOCATE - 15 championships and other titles at the age of not even 6 years) and his dam Ula (Multi-Champ. Family Song's ULA - 4 championships and other titles, her show carreer only started at the age of 16 months). Maverick is ourr FIRST own bred FCI International Champion, we need not mention that we are so proud of this boy. Next year we want to try if we can have more success with Maverick.

Today our guest Steel (Champ. Silver Bluff STEEL KING LEGACY SOM) celebrates his 11th birthday, the oldest Chinese Crested in the pack. Happy Birthday dear Steel.
The small boy has recovered fully from his surgery in August and runs around as if nothing had ever happened. We thank his breeder Barbara Fischer that she bred such a great boy physically and mentally strong.

Steel (Champ. Silver Bluff STEEL KING LEGACY) is recovering well after his surgery. Each and every day he uses his left leg more. During the day he must unfortunately wear the plastic collar as he starts licking his wound immediately, but in the night it is spared to him and he gets a soft jammy which covers the scar.

August 12, 2015:
Steel (Champ. Silver Bluff STEEL KING LEGACY) had an accident which caused a hip luxation, and he needs surgery today. Because of his age (he'll be 11 years in October) the vet decided that it would be too complicated to get the hip into correct position again, so he'll remove the head of femur. The muscle will replace the joint.
The surgery went well, in the late afternoon Steel came back home again and since the evening he walks a bit aound. Every now and then he even puts weight on the operated leg. On August 24, he shall get rid of the stitches. Fingers are tightly crossed for a good healing and that Steel can run again and enjoy his life.
