Eleven years ago, Laura Loikkanen from Finland put her faith in a dog she had only seen in photographs, and arranged an A.I. mating between Erik (born and living in the UK) and Elsa (born in Canada, and living in Finland). Two puppies were born

At the World Dog Show held this year in Helsinki, one of those puppies - Galbraith Caffery - topped a glittering career when he took the World Veteran Winner title and Veteran Best of Breed.

Here is his critique:

Beautiful 11 years old in a great shape, masculine with correct balance between head and body. Beautiful and correct head, good balance with the height and the length of the body. Typical topline, tail, angulations and coat.

Team Ridley are very proud of Laura and Eino!
