| Best in Show: The Medio, 'Lindoia de Veiros' |
The Clube do Podengo de Portuguese held its 21st
Portuguese Podengo Monografica in Sobral de Monte Agraco, Portugal on 17th July where Best in Show judge, Rui Oliveira
selected the wire coated Podengo Medio (medium) Lindoia de Veiros for top honours. ‘Lindoia’
is owned by Henrique and Nuno Passadinhas and was sent through to the final challenge by Portuguese breed specialist Maria
Amelia Tamborda, who also judged the Podengo Grande (large) variety.
Best Puppy in Show was Luis Vas Macedo’s
smooth Podengo Pequeno (miniature) Geleia da Praia do Ribatejo, put through by French judge Jean Luis Grunheid, and adding
another top award to this successful kennel’s record. The wire coated Podengo Pequenos, one of the two varieties recognised
here in the UK, were judged by well known breed specialist Gabriela Veiga. Her choice for Best of Breed was Miguel Sabino’s
Port. Ch. Forcado de Viamonte. Among the exhibitors and visitors from several countries making the trip
to the Monografica were officers and committee members of the Northern Portuguese Podengo Association (proposed).
During the after show dinner, Chairman of the Northern Portuguese Podengo Association, Keith Pearson, presented
the President of the Clube do Podengo Portuguese, Vitor Veiga with the Association’s portfolio as part of the preparations
leading to the signing of the Lisbon Protocol, a documented commitment which upholds the original Portuguese breed standard
and promotes and protects the interests of this ancient hunting hound
