'Ben' as he was known to his friends, led the way for
his offspring in many kennels worldwide. He sired champions both in the
UK and overseas. He was instrumental in improving the hips, colour and
temperament for many well-established kennels. During his show career he
attained Best in Show awards and numerous Best of Breeds including
Crufts. Ben was the celebrated mascot for the Royal Naval destroyer HMS
Manchester and was always really happy when meeting the crew. After
retiring from the show ring he enjoyed his free time appearing in films.
He was a friendly, gentle, home loving dog who loved to relax and enjoy
life. |
