Mojo made the French Championship Shows and Spécialties “his thing”. In 2003 he won a very strong openclass dogs at the Specialty to end up RCAC (Judge: Cassandre Mattera), he wasn’t shown at the Championship Show.
In 2004 the French Championship Show is History but he also won the Champion class Dogs at the Specialty (Judge: Magnus Hagstedt, Sweden).
Mojo s’est fait une spécialité des championnats de France. En 2003 Mojo a gagné une forte classe ouverte pour finir RCAC sous le juge Cassandre Mattera, il n’a pas été exposé au Championnat de France SCC.
En 2004 le Championnat de France SCC a été mémorable mais à la Nationale d’ Elevage Mojo s’est à nouveau fait remarqué en remportant la classe champion Mâles sous le juge suédois Magnus Hagstedt.

RBIS Nationale d’ Elevage 2005

Mojo completed his French title in style getting a 2nd Exc and RCACP at his very first coursing competition. Here you can see the pictures of his first race in the morning. We felt quite lucky that his first race was his training partner Uros du Clos des Sylphides owned by our friend Stefany D’ Anna!!! Pictures by Eric Provost

At this first race Mojo was awarded 14 points by the judge which is the maximum possible!!! In the afternoon he was awarded 15 points (17 being the maximum).

Mojo spent his 2006 summer vacation in Finland with Timo and Kirsi Aalto at Whiptails. Check on our website or Whiptails for more details…

Mojo went to his 1st show in Finland one week after he arrived there and became Finnish Champion, expertly handled by Timo Aalto.

Mojo was also shown in Sweden where he became Swedish Champion with BOB and BIG4 at his very first try!!!

Mojo’s biggest win must have been when I entered him under World Breed Authority Mr Bo Bengtsson from USA for the big Centennial Show held by the German Kennel Club in Dortmund. I just went as I wanted to see Mr Bengtson’s judging with no expectations … To my biggest surprise and pride Mojo went all the way from winning the strong champion class to CAC CACIB Winner and title “Jahrhundertsieger” and finally BOS with 100 whippets from all over Europe entered !!!

Mojo is now shown from time to time in Veteran Class just for fun…

In 2010 he was showed at the French Specialty and won his class and became best Senior Dog under judge Christophe Coppel to finally be choosen as BEST SENIOR IN SHOW under judges and breed authorities Bitte Ahrens (Sobers hounds – Italy) and Thomas Münch (Flic Flac Whippets – Germany).  Thank you to my dear friend Emmanuel Rigaud how showed him brilliantly as I couldn’t due to an injuried arm …
