The World Dog Show -98
was this time arranged in the beautiful capitol of Finland - Helsinki. Uffe have had, everytime being there, enormous successes. So also this time. The breed judge at this show was Mr Norman Huidobro Corbett from Spain, who had about 60 black Miniature Schnauzers to sort out. Uffe was BOB and World Winner -98 over a lot of top dogs that had come all the way from most parts of Europe.

The Italian judge Mr Giuseppe Allessandra did the Group. He went over all the dogs quickly but carefully and after a while it was a fact that Uffe had won the biggest group at the Word Dog Show, the FCI group 2. It was a fantastic moment. The ringside was quite unique at this show. Every time Uffe made the slightest move they started to scream, whistle and applause. He was a big favourite and really got 100 percent support.
A real first class audience at a first class show!

After three days, that we spend enjoying ourselves both at the show and in the City, the time had come for the Best In Show Finals, and for the judge, Mr Kari Järvinen to decide in which order the 10 finalists were going to be placed. Uffe ended up as number five - in an entry of 15 628 dogs! And we left Helsinki having had one of the most incredible weekends ever, filled with memories and moments we will never forget.
