Moncton, NB - OwlCroft is proud to announce that after a whirlwind weekend of competition๐Mushu๐ฒ has returned to the US with his staff after traveling to windy and beautiful New Brunswick, Canada where he was awarded Best of Winners at the 2026 Finnish Lapphund Club of Canada National Specialty and multiple Winners Dog placements at the concurrent Moncton Kennel Club dog shows. He achieved this feat among an outstanding field of amazingly presented Lappies. Reliable sources report that he is now within mere points of completing his Canadian Championship - less than two months after earning his American Kennel Club Champion designation.
Authorities said on Sunday afternoon that more details and photographic proof of the previously reported cuteness will be released once they complete the remainder of the 400 mile journey home and have slept approximately 373,947 hours. In the meantime, they stressed the importance of acknowledging all of the hard work that goes into holding a National Specialty, and wish to thank everyone who had a hand in hosting this incredible event.
When reached for comment,๐Mushu๐ฒ stared directly into this reporters heart and initiated his trademark full body tail wag while providing no further information, in a characteristicly Finnish quiet acknowledgement of his incredible success.
๐Mushu๐ฒ is AKC CH, *CKC MAJOR POINTED* Midnight Island Dragon in Disguise, bred by Jackie Barbour of Midnight Island Finnish Lapphunds, owned by RJ Rautio, Ian Beck, and Jackie Barbour. Presented to the fancy by OwlCroft.
