"Ishy" was the first of Ch Walkon Made'n Issue's pups to enter the show ring. We mated him to Ch Roamaro Razzle Dazzle For Walkon and as previously agreed with Mandy & Richard Laidlaw, registered the litter under the Roamaro affix.

With her kennel mate Walkon Casinoroyale still a puppy we delayed bringing "Ishy" out until she was 8 months old. Her first outing was at the 2007 City Of Birmingham Championship Show where under international all rounder Mao Persson she won VHC in a strong Minor Puppy Bitch class and despite the long distance travelled and overnight in the car, nothing phased her and she showed like a veteran!

Her next outings, at the end of September, were "across the water" where at The Irish Boxer Club Championship Show under breed specialist Lesley Wearing she was 1st in Puppy Bitch and the next day at Belfast Championship Show was 3rd under breed specialist Frank Wildman qualifying for CRUFTS on both occasions.

A second RCC followed in September at the Irish Boxer Club under another boxer specialist Olavi Tuovinen from Finland and to our absolute delight she won the CC at the last two shows of the year under breed pecialist Helen Banks and all rounder Derek Smith bringing her tally to 2CC & 2RCC for the year!

At her very next show - Southern Counties, under Sweedish Judge Annmarie Maeland, "Ishy" won her 3rd CC becoming our 19th Champion and we belive a very well deserved one.
Blackpool, Windsor and East Of England Championship Shows followed where she continued her run of sucess winning the CC on all three occasions, under breed specialists Isobel Edison and Linda Carnaby as well as all rounder Peter Bailey.

Following another two RCC in August at the British Boxer Club and Bournemouth Championship Shows under Eddie Banks and Barbara Morrison, "Ishy" won her next three Open Bitch classes including those at the Irish Boxer Club and Belfast Championship Show where she won another RCC & CC, under Johan Kieser and Malcolm Gray.

On the fourth occasion she won the RCC under breed specialist Betty MacDonald.
Her next outing was the Cotswold Boxer Club Dog Of The Year where under three judges - Siguard Wilberg, Paola Watten and Edna Woods she won Bitch Of The Year out of a star studded entry!

In addition to her phenominal success in the breed and group rings during 2010 "Ishy" competed for and won the coveted title of The Scottish Show Dog Of The Year 2009 - All Breeds. To win such an award is a dream of a lifetime and having already won the 2003 title with her Great Uncle Ch Roamaro Fun In The Sun With Walkon it was also unbelievable!

"Ishy" won 25 Open Bitch classes during 2011, winning a staggering 20 CC's in the process. Her first was in March at CRUFTS, under Helen Banks and her last was at the LKA under Nigel Rawlings in December. It was however a year like no other and one that saw the pinnacle of our showing career. Not only did "Ishy" win another 3 RCC's but she won Best of Breed fourteen times and had the opportunity to represent the breed in the Group ring eleven times winning the Working Group on three occasions at Leeds, Driffield and LKA. She was also Working Group 2 three times at Bournemouth, The Welsh Kennel Club and Belfast, asll as a Working Group 3 at Richmond.
Her ultimate achievement however was a first for the kennel when she won Best In Show at Leeds Championship Show in July under the international all rounder Moa Persson and unbeliveably repeated this with Best In Show at LKA, the last show of the year, under the UK well known all rounder Albert Wight! To say we were thrilled was an understatement and we cannot express just how proud we are of her achivements

At the present time she has won 45CC's, 17RCC's, 25 Best Of Breeds, 8 Boxer Club Best In Shows , 6 Working Group 1's, 3 Working Group 2's, 3 Group 3's, a Group 4 placing, a Reserve Best In Show All Breeds and 2 Best In Show All Breeds.

Royally bred as her pedigree shows we look forward to her continued campaigning during 2012.
