June 2008
Three Counties, Malvern
On Wednesday 11th June 2008 Munyah was Best of Breed and took the single ticket on offer at the above show under Mrs Zena Thorn Andrews. We couldn't be happier with how Munyah's year is shaping up and many thanks to Mrs Thorn Andrews for her contribution to this. Munyah is now on 7 Challenge Certificates which makes her the British breed CC record holder ~ and I don't think she is ready to stop quite yet!
May 2008
Scottish Kennel Club
Our sincere thanks to John McManus for making Munyah Best Bitch at the above Show on Saturday 17th of May. Yarraman Star Sapphire at Dartbrook was Reserve Best Bitch and Mudgee Blue Yarraman won her class, so it was worth making the long journey over and above being an opportunity to meet up with all our Scottish friends!
Birmingham National Dog Show
Thank you to Jack Chetwynd for Munyah's 5th CC on Saturday 10th of May at the above Show where she was Best Bitch. Another Reserve Best Bitch place for Yarraman Dare To Rock at Coright (Taz) and Lesley Wright too.
April 2008
Working and Pastoral Breeds Association of Wales
We went along to the Royal Welsh Showground on Saturday 19th April 2008 to the WPBA of Wales Show. Judge was Mrs J. Peak. Our Mudgee Blue Yarraman was first in Junior Bitch, though, admittedly, standing alone :-) Ch Yarraman Munyah Blue Yarraman was first in Open bitch with her daughter Yarraman Dare To Rock at Coright in 2nd place (I think these two will be swopping position for some time to come!). We were stunned, though in a good way, when Mrs Peak gave our youngster, Mudgee, Best Bitch!
Australian Cattle Dog Society Of Great Britain's Open Show
Our grateful thanks to Vic Salt who on Sunday 6th April 2008 made our Ch Warrigal Munyah Blue Yarraman Best Bitch and Best of Breed at the above show. Also for our 1st placing in Junior Bitch for Mudgee Blue Yarraman. We loved the beautiful sash the Scociety presented for Munyah's win and the rosettes they gave out were absolutely beautiful (and will, of course, be given pride of place in our collection!).
March 2008
What a day Crufts was for us!
We cannot thank Steve Hall (Judge) enough for the marvellous day he gave us at Crufts on Saturday 8th March 2008. John Carruthers' Yarraman The Booroo ShCM (Boomer) started off the day with a 1st in Limit Dog, this was followed by Boomer also winning 1st in the Good Citizen Dog Scheme (Dog) class. In Limit Bitch Yarraman Dare to Rock at Coright (Taz) was 1st for Lesley Wright. Taz's granny, our Ch Warrigal Munyah Blue Yarraman (Munyah), then went on to take 1st in Open Bitch. Taz then followed in Boomer's footsteps by taking 1st in the Good Citizen Dog Scheme (Bitch) class. In the bitch challenge Taz took Best Bitch and Munyah was Reserve Best Bitch. The Taz challenged the Best Dog and was made BEST OF BREED! We were SO excited!!
Taz did us proud in the 'big ring' even though she didn't make the cut. Our thanks to Lesley for showing her off to such a high standard.
The only disappointment of the day was that our Digger, Yappeet Blue Dreamer Yarraman, had a tummy upset and had to be withdrawn from his class. Thankfully he is now recovered.

Top UK ACD
What a thrill for us to read in 'Dog World' the Warrigal Munyah Blue Yarraman is top ACD in the UK for 2007. She was top bitch in breed in 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2006 (in 2006 our Digger - Yaapeet Blue Dreamer was top ACD in the UK) so it is wonderful that her time has now come!
November 2007
Well done to John Carruthers' Boomer - Yarraman The Booroo ShCM - for his Best Dog and Best of Breed win at Working and Pastoral Breeds Association of Scotland on Saturday 3rd November 2007. Boomer was pulled out in the last 8 of the group for further consideration too. Kevin Wilkie and Morag Slaven's Yarraman Star Sapphire at Dartbrook was first in Post Graduate Bitch. Well done to all and thanks to the Judge, Mr H. E. Pedersen from Denmark for these placings.

Munyah did it again! Under Mr Peter Bailey (Beechwyre) on 18th May 2007 at the Scottish Kennel Club Championship Show she took the Bitch CC and Best of Breed. One more to go for her Championship ............. we are so excited! Dogs of our breeding also did well on the day with Yarraman The Booroo ShCM first in Limit Dog and Yarraman Star Sapphire at Dartbrook first in Post Graduate Bitch.
Fantastic News!
We cannot describe our delight when Warrigal Munyah Blue Yarraman took her first CC at Birmingham National Dog Show under Mr Albert Wight on 10th May 2007. Oh yes, and she was also Best of Breed which just added to an already wonderful result for us. Yarraman Dare To Rock at Coright picked up the Reserve Bitch CC behind her granny.
