C.I.B., Aust. Ch., A2O Ch. Bordogue Elijah

Elijah is one of the two boys we have retained from the Tristan x Persia litter. Like his siblings and parents, he has beautiful structure, correct angles and moves accordingly. Elijah gains his Australian Champion title at 10 1/2 months. Elijah finished 2022 as the No. 1 Rising Star in Australia on the DOL Pointscore and also finished No. 3 in Australia on the Best of Breed Pointscore. Not a bad effort at all, considering the competition he had. Some of his achievements for 2022 include: Best of Breed, Show 1, Brisbane Royal; Best of Breed and graded Excellent at the FCI CACIB Show, Spring Fair, but too young to be awarded the CACIB; Crufts Qualified 2023; and 11 x Classes in Group. Elijah is awarded his 4th FCI A2O certificate in March 2024 and pending FCI approval he is the first male DDB in Australia to be eligible for the title. Elijah and his litter sister Erin are the only DDB in Australia to achieve the title. Elijah wins his second Brisbane Royal Best of Breed and is shortlisted in the Top 8 for Group by judge Mrs Rita Sayara De Oliveria (Brazil). There were 243 dogs in the Group. Elijah gains his 4th CACIB and is now eligible for the C.I.B. title. Elijah is clear by parentage for HFH, CMR1 and the long haired gene. Elijah is pictured at 3 years and 1 week in the main photo, and 11 months in the remaining photos.
