Top trio are off to Crufts
Published at 10:54, Thursday, 14 February 2013
ROMEO, Duffy and Melvin are three prize-winning Rottweilers who will soon be taking centre stage at prestigious dog show Crufts.
All three have qualified for the event which takes place in March at Birmingham’s NEC arena.
The top trio are among generations of Rottweilers bred in Whitehaven by Susan Turnbull at West Lodge Kennels, Red Lonning.
Duffy, aged five, and Romeo, three, have done Crufts before but 20-month-old Melvin will make his debut.
Alongside them at the world’s biggest dog show but travelling from across the border where he is now owned and groomed will be newly-crowned Scottish champion Oscar, also bred at Westlodge.
Oscar, two, is at his peak having just been judged Scottish Kennel Club top show dog of 2012, the first Rottweilers to take the best of all breeds award.
