Norsk Basenji Klubbs Spesialutstilling 2008
Yet again, we had a lovely show with exceptional
weather. For the first time, the show was held at "Finnskogen", which was a lovely showground.
I have tried to take pictures of all the Basenjis present, but I lack some.
I would like to thank my "photo assistents": Lars & Ellen Kvernmo for many great photos. I have chosen to sign all the photos with my name due to
copright regulations. Please feel free to use any photo as long as you keep my signature if it will be used in public internet sites/ magazines. If you
wish to have a photo for private use of better quality, do not hesitate to contact me for the original picture.
I would like to give my congrats to all winners, and give a special thanks to the board of the club for a job well done having arranged this wonderful
show. A special thanks also goes out to our judge Jon Curby of Kibushi Basenjis, U.S.A, Mia Löwbeer from Yulara Basenjis Sweden, and Kurt Espeland, our very
talented and entertaining ring secretary. A thanks also goes out to Annika Kåss and Jeanette Strand for Handling assistance.
Thank you also to every show contestant and spectator for contributing to making the weekend so wonderful!
