I couldn't be more proud of how our team handled the busy environment that is Ekka. Cool as cucumbers with the public and all showed their little behinds off in the ring.
Huui is co-owned & adored by my dear friend, Bronwyn Frewen-Lord. The team was backed on Ekka-day by Mr Shiba (Adam).

Pink had a phenomenal weekend at Maree Kennel Club this past weekend. Now back in coat and looking sensational, Pink found her way to;

Our most sincere thanks to Judges; Mrs B Doyle (Vic), Mr P Martin (SA) & Mrs J Jones (Vic) for finding Pink in some outstanding lineups.

Huge congratulations and heartfelt thank you to Pink's breeder Lindsay Tompkins. I remain eternally grateful to you and Tia McLaughlin for breeding, raising, and training our little dream boat. DoG I love her!

It was sensational weekend of results & seeing old friends. Well-run shows, awesome ring conditions & yummy canteen options!
Can't wait to plan our next trip. Well worth the 20 hour return road trip.
Special thanks to the best travel buddy & Huui's co-owner, Bronwyn Frewen-Lord & also to "Mr Shiba", my supportive hubby, for always taking the best care of our team who stay home with him.
May might be my new favourite month!
The month began with a NEW CHAMPION! At the Western Suburbs Kennel Club, Ripley finished his title in style with an 11 point BOB & RUNNER-UP BEST IN GROUP - from the Puppy Class!!
Now officially known as; Australlian Champion Ilsonyo Believe It Or Not Masakado (IID USA)!
The titles kept on coming, with NEW CHAMPION, Fu! At the Pine Rivers & Redcliffe Kennel Clubs, Fu finished her title with 9 & 8 point BOBs and is now officially known as; Australian Champion Ilsonyo For Love Nor Money Masakado (IID USA).
Fu is adored & co-owned by Dana Clifton (KazokuShiba - SA) but has been home on a Showcation while Dana raised a litter of puppies. We will miss her terribly when she goes home in June but know they're going to have some great fun in the ring & sports together.
A couple of weekends off dog shows has seen Pink having a blast, doing what comes naturally to most Shibas - chasing!
At the Beaudesert Kennel Club Sprintdog trial, Pink earned the final points required for her NOVICE SPRINTDOG TITLE!! Now known as; American Grand Champion / Australian Champion Masakado Mark Side Of The Moon N.SPRT* (Imp USA).
I am so incredibly proud of all our dogs have achieved so far in 2025. I'm sure the best is yet to come!
To say I'm proud of Huui & Bronwyn would be an understatement of mass proportions!
🏆BEST IN SHOW🏆
*BEST AUSTRALIAN BRED IN SHOW*
Awarded at the Warwick Show & Rodeo Society Inc. by judge Mr Serge Tassan (QLD).
I am absolutely elated for Bron and have not been able to wipe the silly smile from my face all weekend. Huui being Bron's first Shiba, first Group Winner, and now....the big one! I'm only sorry I wasn't there to see it myself.
Congratulations Bron & thankyou for giving our boy every opportunity to succeed. Huui really hit the jackpot when he landed on your couch (& I did too). xxx
